Consider the following chain reaction process in the production of NO and NO2, NO, »NO+0 h°v 0+0,+M-&_→0,+M →O3+M k3 NO + O,- →NO, +O,. →NO, +O¸. By using the steady-state assumption, show that the concentration of ozone, a major component of the photochemical smog, is determined by the ratio of [NO2] to [NO].
