Two modeled collision orientations for the elementary reaction between \(\text{CO}(g)\) and \(\text{NO}_2(g)\).
Two modeled collision orientations for the elementary reaction between \(\text{CO}(g)\) and \(\text{NO}_2(g)\).
The elementary gas-phase reaction between carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide is represented by the following equation: \[ \text{CO}(g) + \text{NO}_2(g) \rightarrow \text{CO}_2(g) + \text{NO}(g) \] The diagram represents two different collision pathways between a \(\text{CO}\) molecule and an \(\text{NO}_2\) molecule in a reaction vessel where all colliding molecules have kinetic energy exceeding the activation energy, \(E_a\). Which of the following statements best explains whether both collision pathways will result in the formation of products?
