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

Which element has a larger atomic radius than sulfur? chlorine cadmium fluorine oxygen
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

  • <u>Cadmium has larger atomic radius than sulfur.</u>

Explanation:

Down a period, atomic radii decrease from left to right due to the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period: when a proton is added the pull of the electrons towards the nucleus is larger, so the size of the atom decreases.

Hence, you can compare the elements that belong to a same period and predict that the atom with lower atomic number (number of protons) will haver larger atomic radius. With that:

  • Oxygen and fluorine are in the period 3, being oxygen to the left of fluorine, so oxygen is larger than fluorine.

  • Sulfur and chlorine are in the period 4, being sulfur to the left of chlorine, so sulfur is larger than chlorine.

Now see whan happens down a group. Atomic radius increases from top to bottom within a group due to electron shielding. That permits you to compare the size of the elements in a group:

  • Fluorine and chlorine are in the same group (17), with chlorine directly below fluorine, so the atomic radius of chlorine is larger than the atomic radius of fluorine.

  • Sulfur and oxygen are in the same group (16), with sulfur directlly below oxygen, so sulfur the atomic radius of sulfur is larger than the atocmi radius of oxygen.

So far, you can rank the atomic radius of sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen, in increasing order as:

  • O < F < Cl < S, concluding that O, F, and Cl have smaller atomic radius than S.

Cadmiun, Cd, is to the left and below sulfur, so both electron shielding (down a group) and increase of the number of protons (down a period) lead to predict the cadmium has a larger atomic radius than sulfur.

What is the energy per mole of photons, in kJ/mol, emitted by an argon ion laser which produces a green beam with a frequency of
Serga [27]

Answer:

Energy per mole of photons = 2.31 × 10^2 KJ/mol

Explanation:

Energy, E = hf;

Where h is Planck's constant = 6.63 ×10^-34, and f is frequency of the photons.

E = 6.63 × 10^-34 × 5.8 × 10^14

E = 3.84 × 10^-22 KiloJoules

I mole of photons contains Avogadro's number of particles, 6.02 × 10^23

Therefore, the energy per mile of photon is 3.84 × 10^-22 KJ × 6.02 × 10^23

Energy per mile of photon = 2.31 × 10^2 KJ/mol

Answer:

It's the oesophagus.

Explanation:

The worm digestive system consists of the pharynx, the esophagus, the crop, the intestine and the gizzard. The oesophagus is not mentioned. Thus, it's not part of the worm digestive system.
