Answer: $N_2O_5$

Explanation:

Dinitrogen pentoxide is a covalent compound because sharing of electrons takes place between nitrogen and oxygen. Both the elements are non-metals and hence, will form covalent bond.

The nomenclature of covalent compound is given by:

1. The less electronegative element is written first.

2. The more electronegative element is written then, and a suffix is added with it. The suffix added is '-ide'.

3. If atoms of an element is greater than 1, then prefixes are added which are 'mono' for 1 atom, 'di' for 2 atoms, 'tri' for 3 atoms and so on.

Thus the chemical formula for dinitrogen pentoxide is $N_2O_5$

<span>N2, penta means 5, so 5 oxygens

so with that being said n205</span>

The empirical formula of metal iodide : CoI₃(Cobalt(III) Iodide)

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

13.02 g sample of Cobalt , then mol Co(MW=58.933 g/mol) :

$\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{Ar}=\\\\mol=\dfrac{13.02~g}{58.933}\\\\mol=0.221$

Mass of metal iodide formed : 97.12 g, so mass of Iodine :

$\tt =mass~metal~iodide-mass~Cobalt\\\\=97.12-13.02\\\\=84.1~g$

Then mol iodine (MW=126.9045 g/mol) :

$\tt \dfrac{84.1}{126.9045}=0.663$

mol ratio of Cobalt and Iodine in the compound :

$\tt 0.221\div 0.663=1\div 3$

During which step in the Can Crush Lab did water vapor force air from the can?

irina [24]

When you heated the can with the bit of water inside and you boiled it over a flame, the water turned to vapor (gas) and the pressure in the inside of the can is different from the pressure on the outside of the can. When you placed the can into a ice water beaker or a container, the can shrunk it's size, decreasing it's mass and density. The can shrunk as a result of the inside pressure being equalized with the outside pressure.
The part where you placed it in the ice bath or container was when the water vapor was forced out of the can.
