Question

Questions 29 and 30 concern the reaction and mechanism below.
The formation of NOBr,
2 NO(g) + Br2(g) → 2 NOBr(g),
is studied, and the following mechanism is proposed:
NO(g) + Br2(g) ⇌ NOBr2(g) fast, equilibrium
NO(g) + NOBr2(g) → 2 NOBr(g) slow
In this reaction, NOBr2(g) is best described as

A.

an intermediate.

✓ Correct
B.

a product.

C.

a homogeneous catalyst.

D.

a heterogeneous catalyst.
