Study the reaction. NH4+ + NO2– ⟶ N2 + 2H2O

The rate of this reaction is proportional to the concentration of ammonium (NH4+) and the concentration of nitrogen dioxide (NO2–).

What is the rate law of this reaction?

Rate = K[N2][H2O]2
Rate = K[NH4+]2
Rate = K[NH4+][NO2–]
Rate = K[NO2–]2

Rate = K[NH4+][NO2–]

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since rate laws include the concentration of the species contributing to the rate of a chemical reaction; this question asserts this reaction is proportional to the concentration of ammonium (NH4+) and the concentration of nitrogen dioxide (NO2–); therefore, the rate law must contain the concentration of both reactants, for that reason, the answer would be Rate = K[NH4+][NO2–] as it contains the concentration of the aforementioned species.

Regards!

answer : a model is often used to explain and make things easier to understand when any scientific topic needs to be demonstrated and explained.

as in this case where a scientist wants to use a model to present the results of his detailed scientific investigation. he should do it as it will him to make the audience understand the concept in a much better way. also, it can be changed according to new scientific understandings.

the correct answer is b. a strong acid completely dissociates to its ions when dissolved in water. completely dissociates to and ions. a is incorrect because does not fully ionize to and ions and some remain as the compound . c and d are incorrect because, and do not fall into the category of bronsted lowry acids. a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor and since both molecules do not have a proton to donate they are not bronsted lowry acids. likewise,   if we use the lewis acid definition, they cannot be acids. a lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. both and have a complete octet so can not accept any electrons which disqualifies them as acids.
