Question

A proposed mechanism for the decomposition of N2O5 is as follows:
N2O5 NO2+ NO3 slow step
NO2+ NO3 NO2+ O2+ NO fast step
NO + N2O5 3NO2 fast step
What is the rate law predicted by this mechanism?
A) Rate = k1k2[N2O5][NO2][NO3]
B) Rate = k2[NO2][NO3]
C) Rate = k3[NO][N2O5]
D) Rate = k1k2k3[N2O5]2
E) Rate = k1[N2O5]
