Determining Molecularity and Identifying Intermediates
It has been proposed that the conversion of ozone into O2 proceeds by a two-step mechanism:
O3(g) O2(g) + O(g)
O3(g) + O(g) 2 O2(g)
(a) Describe the molecularity of each elementary reaction in this mechanism.
(b) Write the equation for the overall reaction.
(c) Identify the intermediate(s).
For the reaction
Mo(CO)6 + P(CH3)3 Mo(CO)5P(CH3)3 + CO
the proposed mechanism is
Mo(CO)5 + P(CH3)3 Mo(CO)5P(CH3)
(a) Is the proposed mechanism consistent with the equation for the overall reaction? (b) What is the molecularity of each step of the mechanism? (c) Identify the intermediate(s).
