What is the rate law? 

5.
Consider the reaction:
2NO + O2 → 2NO2
A proposed mechanism for this reaction is
2 NO → N2O2
(fast)
Rate = K [
N2O2 + O2 → 2 NO2 (slow)
What is the rate law for the overall reaction based on this mechanism?
A. Rate = k[NO]²
B. Rate = k[NO]²[O2]
C. Rate = k[N2O2][O2/[NO2]
%3D
D. Rate = k[O2]
