Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound
calculating for 100 g of compound
N O
mass 46.7 g 53.3 g
number of moles 46.7 g / 14 g/mol 53.3 g / 16 g/mol
= 3.33 = 3.33
divide by the least number of moles
3.33/ 3.33 = 1.00 3.33/3.33 = 0
number of atoms
N - 1
O - 1
therefore empirical formula is NO
Answer:
The pressure, when the volume is reduced to 7.88L, is 846 torr (option A)
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
The temperature of a gas = 25.0°C
AT 25 °C the gas occupies a volume of 10.0L and a pressure of 667 torr.
The volume reduces to 7.88 L but the temperature stays constant.
Step 2: Boyle's law
(P1*V1)/T1 = (P2*V2)/T2
⇒ Since the temperature stays constant, we can simplify to:
P1*V1 = P2*V2
⇒ with P1 = the initial pressure 667 torr
⇒ with V1 = the initial volume = 10.0 L
⇒ with P2 = the final pressure = TO BE DETERMINED
⇒ with V2 = the final volume = 7.88L
P2 = (P1*V1)/V2
P2 = (667*10.0)/7.88
P2 = 846 torr
The pressure, when the volume is reduced to 7.88L, is 846 torr (option A)
The value of Avogadro number is 6.02214076 × 10^24
Answer:
Metals lose electrons to become cations.
Explanation:
For example, sodium loses an electron to become a sodium cation.
Na· ⟶ Na⁺ + e⁻
A is <em>wrong</em>. Nonmetals gain electrons to become anions.
B is <em>wrong</em>. Metals lose electrons.
D is <em>wrong</em>. Nonmetals gain electrons to become anions.
