The empirical formula is N₂O₅.
The empirical formula is the <em>simplest whole-number ratio of atoms</em> in a compound.
The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of moles, so our job is to calculate the <em>molar ratio of N:O</em>.
I like to summarize the calculations in a table.
<u>Element</u> <u>Moles</u> <u>Ratio¹ </u> <u> ×2² </u> <u>Integers</u>³
N 1.85 1 2 2
O 4.63 2.503 5.005 5
¹To get the molar ratio, you divide each number of moles by the smallest number (1.85).
²Multiply these values by a number (2) that makes the numbers in the ratio close to integers.
³Round off the number in the ratio to integers (2 and 5).
The empirical formula is N₂O₅.
Write the chemical equation for reaction
that is
2SO2+O2 --->2SO2
find the moles of SO2 used = moles=mass/molar mass of so2
= 32g/80g/mol=0.4 moles
by use of reacting ratio between SO2 and SO3 which is 2:2 therefore the moles of so3 is also = 0.4 moles
STP 1 mole = 22.4L.
what about 0.4moles
= 0.4 /1 x22.4=8.96 liters
Answer:
Nucleus
Explanation: it is the center of the atom, and contains protons and nuetrons
Answer:
NO2 is the molecular formula of nitrogen Oxide
Explanation:
Correct question
An oxide of nitrogen contain its own volume of nitrogen
its vapour dentity is 23. Find the molecular formula
Of nitrogen Oxide
Solution
As we know
Molecular Weight is equal to two times the vapour density
Hence, the molecular weight of Oxide of nitrogen is 2 * 22 = 44
Molecular weight of Oxide of nitrogen is the sum of atomic weight of nitrogen and oxygen
Molecular weight of Oxide of nitrogen = 14 + 16 *Y
14 + 16 *Y = 46
Y = 2
Hence, the formula is NO2
