Nitric oxide reacts with chlorine to form nitrosyl chloride, NOCl. Use the following data to determine the rate equation for the reaction.
NO + (1/2)Cl2 -> NOCl

Expt.[NO] [Cl2] Initial rate
1 0.22 0.065 0.96 M/min
2 0.66 0.065 8.6 M/min
3 0.44 0.032 1.9 M/min

How much of this do you know how to do. For example, can you determine that the rate is first order with respect to NO? (It is)

It isnt that easy to see what Cl2 is. Do this
rate = k(NO)^2(Cl2)^x

rate2 = k(0.66)^2(0.065)^x
rate3 = k(0.44)^2(0.032)^x
Divide the rate2/rate3 and solve for x. I obtained 1.
