4. A scientist studying the reaction given by the balanced equation: 2NO(g) + O2(g) → 2NO2(g) obtained the results in the Table below. Run 1 2 3 Initial [NO] mol/L 0.219 0.221 0.439 Initial [O2(g)] mol/L 0.151 0.302 0.150 Rate (mol/(Ls)) 0.450 0.902 0.180 a) (3 marks) Determine the total order of the reaction. b) (2 marks) You want to increase the reaction rate as much as you can by doubling the initial concentration of one of the reactants. Which reactant would you choose? Explain your reasoning.
