reaction vessel is 4.2 X 107 M/s, what is the rate
of appearance of (a) NO2, (b) O2?

For a 1st order rxn plotting the natural log of [] vs. time
always gives a straight line
Slope of the line is -k
If the plot is not a straight line the rxn is not first order

CHAIN REACTIONS
Chain reactions are complex reactions that
involve chain carriers, reactive intermediates
which react to produce further reactive
intermediates.
The elementary steps in a chain reaction may be
classified into
Initiation
Propagation
Inhibition
Termination steps.
Initiation step
Reaction is initiated either thermally or photo chemically.
The first reactive intermediates/chain carriers (in this
case a Cl radical) are produced.
PROPAGATION STEP
Reaction of a radical leads to formation of another
radical another reactive intermediate.
In the first propagation step above,

with another molecule to create an inactive
