Given the reaction 2NO + O_2 → 2NO_2 and the following initial rate data:
| [NO] (M) | [O_2] (M) | Initial Rate (M/s) |
|----------|-----------|---------------------|
| 0.10 | 0.10 | 1.2 × 10^{-3} |
| 0.20 | 0.10 | 4.8 × 10^{-3} |
| 0.10 | 0.20 | 2.4 × 10^{-3} |
Determine the correct rate law and value of the rate constant k.
A
Rate = k[NO][O_2]^2, k = 6.0 × 10^1 M^{-2}s^{-1}
B
Rate = k[NO][O_2], k = 1.2 × 10^{-2} M^{-1}s^{-1}
C
Rate = k[NO]^2, k = 1.2 × 10^{-3} M^{-2}s^{-1}
D
Rate = k[NO]^2[O_2], k = 1.2 × 10^2 M^{-2}s^{-1}

Write the general form of the rate law for the reaction: \(\text{Rate} = k[\text{NO}]^m[\text{O}_2]^n\), where \(m\) and \(n\) are the reaction orders with respect to NO and O\(_2\), respectively.
Use the initial rate data to determine the order with respect to NO by comparing experiments where [O\(_2\)] is constant. For example, compare experiment 1 and 2 where [O\(_2\)] = 0.10 M:
Calculate \(k\) (do not provide the final numeric value here) and include the units based on the rate law orders: \(\text{units of } k = M^{-(m+n-1)} s^{-1} = M^{-2} s^{-1}\).
