Answer:
(a) Rate at which 
is formed is 0.050 M/s
(b) Rate at which 
is consumed is 0.0250 M/s.
Explanation:
The given reaction is:-
The expression for rate can be written as:-
![-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO]}{dt}=-\frac{d[O_2]}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D-%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
Given that:- ![\frac{d[NO]}{dt}=-0.050\ M/s](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D-0.050%5C%20M%2Fs)
(Negative sign shows consumption)
![-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO]}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)

(b) Rate at which is consumed is 0.0250 M/s.
Explanation:
During a chemical change, a new kind of matter is formed. Examples are combustion, rusting of iron, precipitation and souring of milk.
Here are some of the properties of chemical change:
- They are not easily reversible
- It leads to the production of new kinds of matter.
- It involves change in mass.
- It requires a considerable amount of energy.
