The reaction of ozone with oxygen atoms in the presence of chlorine atoms can occur by a two step process shown below : $$\begin{gather*} \mathrm{O}_3(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{Cl}^{\bullet}(\mathrm{g}) \rightarrow \mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{ClO}^{\bullet}(\mathrm{g})-(\mathrm{i}) \\ \mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{i}}=5.2 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~L} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1} \mathrm{~s}^{-1} \\ \mathrm{ClO}^{\bullet}(\mathrm{g})+\mathrm{O}^{\bullet}(\mathrm{g}) \rightarrow \mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{Cl}^{\bullet}(\mathrm{g})-(\mathrm{ii})\\ \mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{ii}}=2.6 \times 10^{10} \mathrm{~L} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1} \mathrm{~s}^{-1} \end{gather*} $$ The closest rate constant for the overall reaction $\displaystyle \mathrm{O}_3(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{O}^{\bullet}(\mathrm{g}) \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g})$ is :
