Interpretation:
The rate law for the decomposition of the ozone in the reaction has to be derived.
Concept introduction:
Rate law: It is generally the rate equation that consists of the reaction rate with the concentration or the pressures of the reactants and constant parameters.
Explanation of Solution
The given reaction involves multiple mechanism steps, by adding the entire individual steps gives rise to an overall reaction equation. Hence, the reaction equation is as follows,
The overall equation is given as
The intermediate is
From the above, the concentration of
The net rate of change of concentration of
By substituting the expression of
Therefore, the rate law for the decomposition of the ozone in the reaction is
