The total energy required for this conversion is equivalent to the sum of the energies that are used. There are three steps:
1) Heating of liquid acetone
This used 628 J
2) Evaporation of acetone
This used 15.6 kJ or 15,600 J
3) Heating of acetone vapors
This used 712 J
Adding these quantities,
Total energy = 628 + 15,600 + 712
The total energy required was <span>16940 Joules of 16.94 kJ</span>
Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Steps involved for the given reaction will be as follows.
Step 1:
(fast)
Rate expression for step 1 is as follows.
Rate = k ![[NO]^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BNO%5D%5E%7B2%7D)
Step 2: 
This step 2 is a slow step. Hence, it is a rate determining step.
Step 3.
(fast)
Here,
is intermediate in nature.
All the steps are bimolecular and it is a second order reaction. Also, there is no catalyst present in this reaction.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement step 1 is the rate determining step, concerning this mechanism is not directly supported by the information provided.
