Question

Nitric oxide (NO) gas and oxygen gas combine to form nitrogen dioxide gas according to the equation

2 NO(g) + O2 (g) → 2 NO2 (g)

The rate law for this reaction is

rate = k[NO]2[O2].

If the molar concentration of nitric oxide is 0.0126 M, the molar concentration of oxygen is 0.0125 M, and the numerical value of the rate constant is 7110, what is the reaction rate? Report your answer to 3 sig figs. Do not use scientific notation. Do not include units in your answer.
