                                         Figure 3: Concentration of NO and NO   2



                            (i)   Using the following equilibrium reaction

                                  N  (g) + O  (g)      2NO (g); ∆H = +180 kJ mol −1
                                    2
                                            2
                                  account for the formation of NO(g) as a pollutant in urban areas.

                           (ii)   Suggest a reason for the time lapse between maximum concentrations of NO(g)
                                  and NO  (g) shown in Figure 3.
