Assertion : Complex reaction takes place in different steps and the slowest step determines the rate of reaction. Reason : Order and molecularity of a reaction are always equal.

The following mechanism has been propsoed for the reaction of NO with Br_(2) to form NOBr. NO(g) +Br_(2)(g) hArr NOBr_(2)(g), NOBr_(2)(g) +NO(g) rarr 2NOBr(g)" " (slow step) If the second step is the rate determining step, the order of the reaction with respect to NO(g) is:
