Solution

The correct option is A r=K[NO]2[H2], where K=K2×K1
From the slow step, which is rate determining step, the rate r=k2[N2O2][H2].......(1)
From the equilibrium step, k1=[N2O2][NO]2 or [N2O2]=k1×[NO]2......(2)
Substitute equation (2) in equation (1)
r=k2×k1[NO]2[H2],
Substitute k=k2×k1 in the above equation
r=k[NO]2[H2],
