The following mechanism has been proposed for the reaction of NO with Br2 to from NOBr
NO(g) + Br2(g) 
NOBr2(g)
NOBr2(g) + NO(g) ¾® 2NOBr(g)
If the second step is the rate determining step, the order of the reaction with respect to NO(g) is
A
0
B
3
C
2
D
1
Answer
1
Explanation
Solution
r = k [NO]1 [NOBr2]1
order w.r.t (NO) is 1
