The reaction of ozone with oxygen atoms in the presence of chlorine atoms can occur by a two step process shown below:

O3g+Cl•→O2g+ClO•g...(i)

ki=5.2×109 L mol-1 s-1

ClO•g+O•g→O2g+Cl•g...(ii)

kii=2.6×1010 L mol-1 s-1

The closest rate constant for the overall reaction

O3g+O•g→2O2gis:

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

O3g+Clg•→O2g+ClOs•KiClOg•+Og•→O2g+Clg•Kii

_________________________________

O3g+Og•→202gKRate=Ki×Kii

Overall Rate constant = Ki × Kii

= 5.2 × 109 × 2.6 × 1010

≈ 1.4 × 1020 mol-1 L s-1
