16.8 The slow step determines the rate law:

rate = k 3 [NO

4 ][NO - 2 ]

Problem: NO

4 is not in our original (overall) reaction.

To get rid of NO

4 we use the fast step and solve for NO - 4 :

1 2 2 2 4

1 4 2 2 4 2

1 2 3 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2

k [NO ][O ] k [NO ]

k [NO ] [NO ][O ]; substitute this for [NO ] in the rate law : k

k rate k [NO ][O ][NO ] k[NO ] [O ] k

rate k[NO ] [O ]; if this agees with exp erimental rate, then the mechanism

is plausible.

16.9 The slow step determines the rate law:

rate = k 5 [NO 2 ][C]

Problem: C is not in our original (overall) reaction.

To get rid of C we use the fast step containing C and solve for [C]:
