It has been proposed that the conversion of ozone into O2 proceeds in two steps :O3(g) ⇋ o2(g) + O(g) O3(g) + O(g) -----> 2O2(g) (a) Write the equation for overall reaction.(b) Identify the intermediate, if any.(c) Derive molecularity for each step of mechanism.

Answer»

(a) Addition of the two steps gives the overall reaction

2O3(g) ------> 3O2(g)

(b) Intermediate is O(g).

(c) The first step is unimolecular. The second step is bimolecular.
