  1. Form the rate expression for the following reactions determine their order of reaction and dimensions of the rate constants.
    a) 3NO(g) --> N2O(g) + NO2 (g) Rate = K [NO]2
    b) H2O2 (aq) + 3 I - (aq) + 2H+ --> 2H2O (l) + I-1 Rate =- k [H2O] [I-]
    c) CH3 CHO(g) --> CH4(g) + CO(g) Rate = k [CH3 CHO]3/2
