Solution
The correct option is D 3
The expression for the rate of the reaction is r=k[NO]n[Br2]m−(1)
When the concentration of NO is doubled and the concentration of Br2 remains same, the rate expression becomes 4r=k[2NO]n[Br2]m−(2)
When the concentration of NO is doubled and the concentration of Br2 is tripled, the rate expression becomes 12r=k[2NO]n[3Br2]n−(3)
Divide equation (2) with equation (1) to obtain n=2
Divide equation (3) with equation (1) to obtain m=1
Hence, the order of the reaction is 2+1=3.
