6 0
The formula of acetamide is C2H5NO
It contains 2 atoms of carbon 
The atomic mass of carbon is 12; therefore 2 atoms of carbon contains 24 g
The mass of 1 mole of acetamide is 59.07 g/mol
Therefore; the percentage of carbon in asetamide will be'
 =24/59.07 ×100
 = 40.63 %

Which of the following is the correct formula for Ca2+ reacting with NO2??
mariarad [96]

Answer:

B. Ca(NO2)2

Explanation:

Ions (charged atoms) combine with one another to form stable ionic compounds. In this case, calicium ion (Ca2+) is said to react with NO2, which has a charge of -1 i.e. +1-1(2) = 1-2 = -1.

This means that calcium has a charge of +2 while nitrite ion has charge of -1, hence, when they combine, they exchange their charges, which become their subscript as follows:

Ca2+ + NO2- → Ca(NO2)2

Ca(NO2)2 is a stable ionic compound called calcium nitrite. Notice that it takes two atoms of NO2- to react with one atom of Ca2+.
