Consider the chemical reaction shown below, and indicate which of the following statements is true. 2H₂S(g) + O₂(g) → 2S(s) + 2H₂O(1) The reaction is third-order overall. The reaction is second-order overall. rate = K[H₂S]² [0₂]. rate = K[H₂S] [O₂]. None of the above: the rate law cannot be determined from the information given.

Which of the following statements are true? See attached picture for question.

Consider the chemical reaction shown below, and indicate which of the following
statements is true.
2H₂S(g) + O₂(g) → 2S(s) + 2H₂O(1)
The reaction is third-order overall.
The reaction is second-order overall.
rate = K[H₂S]² [0₂2].
rate = K[H₂S] [O₂].
None of the above: the rate law cannot be determined from the information
given.
