A. $\frac{{2[{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_2}{\text{F]}}}}{{2[{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_2}] + [{{\text{F}}_2}]}}$

B. $\frac{{2[{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_2}{\text{F]}}}}{{2[{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_2}][{{\text{F}}_2}]}}$

C. $\frac{{{{[{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_2}{\text{]}}}^2}{\text{[}}{{\text{F}}_2}{\text{]}}}}{{{{[{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_2}{\text{F}}]}^2}}}$

D. $\frac{{{{[{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_2}{\text{F]}}}^2}}}{{{{[{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_2}]}^2}[{{\text{F}}_2}]}}$
