Answer:

The compound is N2O4

Explanation:

We have certain important pieces of information about the compound;

1) it is an oxide (a binary compound of nitrogen and oxygen)

2) there are no N-N bonds present

3) there are no O-O bonds present

Since it contains only nitrogen and oxygen then nitrogen accounts for 25.9% of the molecule by mass then oxygen should account for (100-25.9) = 74.1% oxygen

Relative atomic mass of oxygen = 16

Relative atomic mass of nitrogen = 14

We now deduce the empirical formula

Nitrogen. Oxygen

25.9/14. 74.1/16

1.85/1.85. 4.6/1.85 (divide through by the lowest ratio)

1 2

Empirical formula is NO2

To find the molecular formula

(NO2)n = 108

(14+2(16))n= 108

46n=108

n= 108/46

n= 2

Therefore molecular formula= N2O4

What is the ideal gas law
dlinn [17]

Answer: Gases are complicated. They're full of billions and billions of energetic gas molecules that can collide and possibly interact with each other. Since it's hard to exactly describe a real gas, people created the concept of an Ideal gas as an approximation that helps us model and predict the behavior of real gases. The term ideal gas refers to a hypothetical gas composed of molecules which follow a few rules:

Ideal gas molecules do not attract or repel each other. The only interaction between ideal gas molecules would be an elastic collision upon impact with each other or an elastic collision with the walls of the container. [What is an elastic collision?]

Ideal gas molecules themselves take up no volume. The gas takes up volume since the molecules expand into a large region of space, but the Ideal gas molecules are approximated as point particles that have no volume in and of themselves.

If this sounds too ideal to be true, you're right. There are no gases that are exactly ideal, but there are plenty of gases that are close enough that the concept of an ideal gas is an extremely useful approximation for many situations. In fact, for temperatures near room temperature and pressures near atmospheric pressure, many of the gases we care about are very nearly ideal.

If the pressure of the gas is too large (e.g. hundreds of times larger than atmospheric pressure), or the temperature is too low (e.g.

A certain first-order reaction (a→products) has a rate constant of 9.60×10−3 s−1 at 45 ∘c. how many minutes does it take for the
Alexxandr [17]

The integrated rate law expression for a first order reaction is

ln\frac{[A_{0}]}{[A_{t}]}=kt

where

[A0]=100

[At]=6.25

[6.25% of 100 = 6.25]

k = 9.60X10⁻³s⁻¹

Putting values

ln\frac{100}{6.25}=9.6X10^{-3}t

taking log of 100/6.25

100/6.25 = 16

ln(16) = 2.7726

Time = 2.7726 / 0.0096 = 288.81  seconds
