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

schepotkina [342]

Solution

Given mass of FeBr2 = 85.5 g

Molar mass of FeBr2 = 215.65

No. of Moles of FeBr2 = Given Mass / Molar mass = 85.5 / 215.65

No. of Moles = 0.3964

Given Volume is 450 mL i.e. 0.450 L

Now Concentration = 0.3964/0.450

Hence Concentration = 0.881 mol/L

monatomic ion with a charge of +2 has an electronic configuration of 1s22s22p63s23p6. This ion is a(n) . What is the chemical sy
Debora [2.8K]

Answer: The ion is Ca^{2+}. The chemical symbol of the noble gas this ion is isoelectronic with Kr.

Explanation:

The given electronic configuration is,

M^{2+}:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6

The number of electrons = 2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 6 = 18 electrons

As the ion has a charge of +2 , that means it has lost two electrons so the the neutral element will have 2 more electrons i.e 18+2 = 20. The element has atomic number of 20 and the element will be Calcium with electronic configuration of

M: 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^2

Thus the symbol of ion is Ca^{2+}. the nearest noble gas with 18 electrons is Krypton with symbol Kr.

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

you could've googled it but here.

Explanation:

The former OSHA limit for sodium hydroxide (also known as caustic soda or Iye) was 2 mg/m3 as an 8-hour TWA. OSHA proposed a 2-mg/m3 ceiling limit for sodium hydroxide, based on the ACGIH- and NIOSH-recommended limits.
