Exhibit 18-5
The following question(s) pertain to the scenario below.
A student performed a kinetic study of the reaction:
2NO(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO₂(g)
The student prepared the four plots seen below in lab, but forgot to label the axes. A classmate later told him that the reaction was second order in NO and first order in O₂. Not wanting to get a bad grade in the class, the student sets out to label the axes on the graphs.

Refer to Exhibit 18-5. Which graph corresponds to plotting ln[O₂] vs. time?
