The reaction between ozone and nitrogen dioxide at 231 K is first-order in both [NO₂] and [O₃].

(a) Write the rate equation for the reaction.
(b) If the concentration of NO₂ is tripled (and [O₃] is not changed), what is the change in the reaction rate?
(c) What is the effect on reaction rate if the concentration of O₃ is halved (with no change in [NO₂])?
