In the lower troposphere, ozone is one of the components of photochemical smog. It is generated in air when nitrogen dioxide, formed by the oxidation of nitrogen monoxide from car exhaust, reacts by the following mechanism:
k1
1) NO2(g)........................................> NO(g) + O(g)
k2
2) O(g) + O2(g)...........................> O3(g), where k1= 6.0 x 10^-3 s^-1 ;
k2= 1.0 x 10^6 L/mol.s ;
(NO2) = 1.0 x 10^ -9 M and
(O2) = 1.0 x 10 ^-2 M.
Assuming that the rate of formation of atomic oxygen in step 1 equals the rate of its consumption in step 2, calculate the concentration of atomic oxygen, (O).

Please answer #3 and #4 only Photochemical Smog Photochemical smog is a type of air pollution produced when sunlight acts upon motor vehicle exhaust gases, such as nitrogen oxides (e.g., NO, NO:) to form harmful substances such as ozone (0). These substances participate in a reaction cycle that determines the concentration of pollutants at different times during the day. Ozone Formation: NO:(), is formed by chemical reactions involving N2(g) and O-() at the high temperatures inside internal combustion engines in...
A reaction of importance in the formation of smog is that between ozone and nitrogen monoxide described by O3(g)+NO(g)⟶O2(g)+NO2(g)O3(g)+NO(g)⟶O2(g)+NO2(g) The rate law for this reaction is rate of reaction=?[O3][NO]rate of reaction=k[O3][NO] Given that ?=3.02×106 M−1⋅s−1k=3.02×106 M−1⋅s−1 at a certain temperature, calculate the initial reaction rate when [O3O3] and [NONO] remain essentially constant at the values [O3]0=2.65×10−6 M[O3]0=2.65×10−6 M and [NO]0=7.57×10−5 M[NO]0=7.57×10−5 M, owing to continuous production from separate sources. Calculate the number of moles of NO2(g)NO2(g) produced per hour per...
(9) In the troposphere two key reactions responsible for ozone (Os) formation are NO2+ hv -+NO+O 0+ O2+MO+M If the only source of ozone is photolysis of nitrogen dioxide (NO2), what role, if any, is played by Volatile Organics Compounds (VOCs) in O3 formation? Be as specific as you can and give chemical reactions.
One of the components of smog is ozone,O3, a colorless, toxic gas. It is a very strong oxidizing agent and causes respiratory illnesses. Ozone is produced in the lower atmosphere due to the catalytic effect of nitric oxide, NO, a byproduct of the combustion process in car engines. However, in the upper atmosphere ozone is a very useful gas, because it absorbs ultraviolet radiation and protects the earth from this high energy, damaging radiation. It is referred to as the...
5.20 In the troposphere NO reacts with O3 to produce NO2 and O2, Nitric oxide also reacts. with the hydroperoxyl (HO2) radical to produce NO2 and OH. In turn, NO2 is photolyzed rapidly to produce NO and atomic oxygen. The atomic oxygen quickly combines with O2 (when aided by an inert molecule M) to produce O3. (a) Write down balanced chemical equations to represent each of these four chemical reactions. (b) Write down differential equations to represent the time dependencies...
Ozone (O3) in the atmosphere can be converted to oxygen gas by reaction with nitric oxide (NO). Nitrogen dioxide is also produced in the reaction. What is the enthalpy change when 8.50L of ozone at a pressure of 1.00 atm and 25°C reacts with 12.00 L of nitric oxide at the same initial pressure and temperature? [∆H°f (NO) = 90.4 kJ/mol; [∆H°f (NO2) = 33.85 kJ/mol; ∆H°f (O3)= 142.2 kJ/mol] [O3 + NO O2 + NO2] show all work...
