The final step in a typical titration, that is here an acid base one would be to finally find the concentration of your unknown substance whether that be the acid or the base. The other steps are used before this to come to the correct calculation and conclusion.
Answer:
b. Second order in NO and first order in O₂.
Explanation:
A. The mechanism
![\rm 2NO\xrightarrow[k_{-1}]{k_{1}}N_{2}O_{2} \, (fast)\\\rm N_{2}O_{2} + O_{2}\xrightarrow{k_{2}} 2NO_{2} \, (slow)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Crm%202NO%5Cxrightarrow%5Bk_%7B-1%7D%5D%7Bk_%7B1%7D%7DN_%7B2%7DO_%7B2%7D%20%5C%2C%20%28fast%29%5C%5C%5Crm%20N_%7B2%7DO_%7B2%7D%20%2B%20O_%7B2%7D%5Cxrightarrow%7Bk_%7B2%7D%7D%202NO_%7B2%7D%20%5C%2C%20%28slow%29)
B. The rate expressions
![-\dfrac{\text{d[NO]} }{\text{d}t} = k_{1}[\text{NO]}^{2} - k_{-1} [\text{N}_{2}\text{O}_{2}]^{2}\\\\\rm -\dfrac{\text{d[N$_{2}$O$_{2}$]}}{\text{d}t} = -\dfrac{\text{d[O$_{2}$]}}{\text{d}t} = k_{2}[ N_{2}O_{2}][O_{2}] - k_{1} [NO]^{2}\\\\\dfrac{\text{d[NO$_{2}$]}}{\text{d}t}= k_{2}[ N_{2}O_{2}][O_{2}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-%5Cdfrac%7B%5Ctext%7Bd%5BNO%5D%7D%20%7D%7B%5Ctext%7Bd%7Dt%7D%20%3D%20k_%7B1%7D%5B%5Ctext%7BNO%5D%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20-%20k_%7B-1%7D%20%5B%5Ctext%7BN%7D_%7B2%7D%5Ctext%7BO%7D_%7B2%7D%5D%5E%7B2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Crm%20-%5Cdfrac%7B%5Ctext%7Bd%5BN%24_%7B2%7D%24O%24_%7B2%7D%24%5D%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%7Bd%7Dt%7D%20%3D%20-%5Cdfrac%7B%5Ctext%7Bd%5BO%24_%7B2%7D%24%5D%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%7Bd%7Dt%7D%20%3D%20k_%7B2%7D%5B%20N_%7B2%7DO_%7B2%7D%5D%5BO_%7B2%7D%5D%20-%20k_%7B1%7D%20%5BNO%5D%5E%7B2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cdfrac%7B%5Ctext%7Bd%5BNO%24_%7B2%7D%24%5D%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%7Bd%7Dt%7D%3D%20k_%7B2%7D%5B%20N_%7B2%7DO_%7B2%7D%5D%5BO_%7B2%7D%5D)
The last expression is the rate law for the slow step. However, it contains the intermediate N₂O₂, so it can't be the final answer.
C. Assume the first step is an equilibrium
If the first step is an equilibrium, the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal. The equilibrium is only slightly perturbed by the slow leaking away of N₂O₂ to form product.
![\rm k_{1}[NO]^{2} = k_{-1} [N_{2}O_{2}]\\\\\rm [N_{2}O_{2}] = \dfrac{k_{1}}{k_{-1}}[NO]^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Crm%20k_%7B1%7D%5BNO%5D%5E%7B2%7D%20%3D%20k_%7B-1%7D%20%5BN_%7B2%7DO_%7B2%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Crm%20%5BN_%7B2%7DO_%7B2%7D%5D%20%3D%20%5Cdfrac%7Bk_%7B1%7D%7D%7Bk_%7B-1%7D%7D%5BNO%5D%5E%7B2%7D)
D. Substitute this concentration into the rate law
![\rm \dfrac{\text{d[NO$_{2}$]}}{\text{d}t}= \dfrac{k_{2}k_{1}}{k_{-1}}[NO]^{2} [O_{2}] = k[NO]^{2} [O_{2}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Crm%20%5Cdfrac%7B%5Ctext%7Bd%5BNO%24_%7B2%7D%24%5D%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%7Bd%7Dt%7D%3D%20%5Cdfrac%7Bk_%7B2%7Dk_%7B1%7D%7D%7Bk_%7B-1%7D%7D%5BNO%5D%5E%7B2%7D%20%5BO_%7B2%7D%5D%20%3D%20k%5BNO%5D%5E%7B2%7D%20%5BO_%7B2%7D%5D)
The reaction is second order in NO and first order in O₂.
<span>1 mol mag acetate dissociates into 1 mol Mg ion and 2 mols acetate ions in water. Therefore, if 0.6 mol mg of acetate is dissolved in 0.135 literss of water, we will have 0.6/0.135 = 4.44 moles / lit Mg2+ ions and 0.6*2/0.135 = 8.88 moles / liter C2H3O2- ions.</span>
These are properties of alkaline base.

<span> Advantage: CO2 isn't as toxic as CO. Disadvantages: Can get a mixture of oxygen isotopes in CO2, so some species would effuse at about the same rate." But I'm jumping into AP Chem with no prior knowledge so I don't understand anything.</span>
