The answer is +1! Have a great day!
This is the definition of a DNA mutation.
Depending on which part of the genome is affected, the consequences of a mutation may vary. A mutation is said to be hereditary if the mutated genetic sequence is transmitted to the next generation (see germinal mutations). It is one of the elements of biodiversity and one of the many factors that may be involved in the evolution of the species.
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.
Since the volume is constant,
p1/t = p2/ t
210/120 = p2/150
p2= 262.5kpa
