An oxide of nitrogen contains 30.45 mass % N, if the molar mass is 90± 5 g/mol the molecular formula is N₂O₄.
<h3>What is molar mass?</h3>The molar mass of a chemical compound is determined by dividing its mass by the quantity of that compound, expressed as the number of moles in the sample, measured in moles. A substance's molar mass is one of its properties. The compound's molar mass is an average over numerous samples, which frequently have different masses because of isotopes.
<h3>How to find the molecular formula?</h3>The whole-number multiple is defined as follows.
Whole-number multiple =
The empirical formula mass is shown below.
Mw of empirical formula = Mw of N+ 2 x (Mw of O)
= 14.01 g/mol + 2 x (16.00 g/mol)
= 46.01 g/mol
With the given molar mass or the molecular formula mass, we can get the whole-number multiple for the compound.
Whole-number multiple = ≈ 2
Multiplying the subscripts of NO2 by 2, the molecular formula is N(1x2)O(2x2)= N2O4.
