A) Nitrogen has an ATOMIC mass number of 14, but nitrogen gas consists of N₂ molecules, so the mass to use in this problem is 28 g/mol. Rates of effusion ∝ 1/√(mass), so
<span>√(mass unknown) /√28 = (rate N₂ effusion)/(rate unknown effusion) = 1.59 </span>
<span>∴ mass unknown = (1.59)²(28) = 70.78 g/mol </span>
<span>B) One possible gas that comes close for this mass is NF₃.</span>
Answer:
NH3
Explanation:
there is one nitrogen and 3 hydrogen
A chemical reaction is the process in which atoms present in the starting substances rearrange to give new chemical combinations present in the substances formed by the reaction. These starting substances of a chemical reaction are called the reactants, and the new substances that result are called the products.
