Answer:

D. N₂O

Explanation:

Let's assume we have 100 g of the compound.  That means it consists of 63.61 grams of nitrogen and 36.69 grams of oxygen.

Converting masses to moles:

63.61 g N × (1 mol N / 14.01 g N) = 4.540 mol N

36.69 g O × (1 mol O / 16.00 g O) = 2.293 mol O

Normalize by dividing by the smallest:

4.540 / 2.293 = 1.980 mol N

2.293 / 2.293 = 1.000 mol O

So there is approximately twice as many N atoms as O atoms.  The empirical formula is therefore N₂O.

Are the charges in Li2O balanced yes o No?
motikmotik

Answer: For example, the Li 2 O content of the principal lithium mineral spodumene (LiAlSi 2 O 6) is 8.03%. Burning lithium metal produces lithium oxide. Lithium oxide is produced by the thermal decomposition of lithium peroxide at 300-400°C.

Water will move from a ____________ salt solution to a ____________ salt solution when they are across a differentially permeabl
const2013 [10]
The answers are low concentrated (dilute) and high concentrated respectively. 

As the low concentrated salt solution has a higher water potential than that of the high concentrated salt solution, water molecules will flow from the region of higher water potential to the region of lower water potential, thus from the dilute salt solution to the high concentrated salt solution. This is due to the movement called osmosis. Note that osmosis also requires water to flow through a differentially permeable membrane, which means the membrane can allow certain substances (not all) to go in or out. If the differentially permeable membrane is not present, the movement of water molecules may be regarded as diffusion. 

Therefore, the answers for the blanks are low concentrated and high concentrated.
