The termolecular reaction 2NO(g) + H2(g)...

The termolecular reaction `2NO(g) + H_2(g) to 2NOH(g) ` is found to be third-order obeying the rate law `r = k[NO]^2[H_2]`. Show that it is consistent with either of the following mechanisms :
`2NO(g) + H_2(g) overset(K'_(eq))hArr NOH_2(g)` (fast equilibrium)
`NOH_2(g) + NO(g) overset(k')to 2NOH(g)` (slow)
