Answer:

The molecular formula is  N3O6

Explanation:

The empirical formula of the compound is NO2

 

Now, find the number of empirical units in each mole of compound a. The empirical mass of the compound is found by adding one mole of nitrogen (14.0067 g/mol), and two moles of OXYGEN (16.00 g/mole). Compare this to given molar mass to determine the whole-number multiplier.

(1*14.0067 g) +(2*16.00 g) = 46.0067 g/ emp.unit

a = 138.02 g/mole/ 46.0067 g/ emp.unit

= 2.99≈3

The molecular formula is  NO2 *3= N3O6

Let (NO2)n be the molecular formula,
(14+16x2)n=138.02
n=3
molecular formula: (NO2)3=N3O6

How many grams of dextrose are needed to make 725 mL of a 26.0% (w/v) dextrose solution? Note that mass is not technically the s
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

188.5g of dextrose are needed

Explanation:

In Weight per volume percentage - %(w/v) -, the concentration is defined as the mass of solute in grams -In this case, dextrose-, in 100mL of solution.

As you want to prepare 725mL of a 26.0% (w/v) solution. you need:

725mL * (26g / 100mL) = 188.5g of solute =

<h3>188.5g of dextrose are needed</h3>

Why are there few fossils of protists. write a paragraph response
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

protists that produce a hard outer covering have left many fossils, other protists lack hard parts, so few fossils of these organisms have been found. ... Protists in this group are called plantlike because, like plants, they contain the pigment chlorophyll in chloroplasts and can make their own food.

Explanation:

Hope it helps, some how.
