The given word equation is:

Nitrogen trifluoride-->Nitrogen + Fluorine

The chemical formula of nitrogen trifluoride is $NF_{3}$ and that of nitrogen gas is $N_{2}$ and fluorine gas is $F_{2}$ .

The balanced chemical equation representing the decomposition reaction of nitrogen trifluoride to nitrogen and fluorine will be,

$2NF_{3}-->N_{2}+3F_{2}$

The chemical formula of fluorine gas will be $F_{2}$ as fluorine exists as a diatomic gas in it's pure state. The coefficient of fluorine will be 3

Therefore, the correct answer is a) 3F2

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

A compound is 42.9% C, 2.4% H, 16.7% N and 38.1% O by mass. Addition of 6.45 g of this compound to 50.0 mL benzene, C₆H₆ (d= 0.879 g/mL; Kf= 5.12 degrees Celsius/m), lowers the freezing point from 5.53 to 1.37 degrees Celsius. What is the molecular formula of this compound?

Answer : The molecular of the compound is, $C_6H_4N_2O_4$

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the mass of benzene.

$\text{Mass of benzene}=\text{Density of benzene}\times \text{Volume of benzene}$

$\text{Mass of benzene}=0.879g/mL\times 50.0mL=43.95g$

Now we have to calculate the molar mass of unknown compound.

Given:

Mass of unknown compound (solute) = 6.45 g

Mass of benzene (solvent) = 43.95 g = 0.04395 kg

Formula used :

$\Delta T_f=K_f\times m\\\\\Delta T_f=K_f\times\frac{\text{Mass of unknown compound}}{\text{Molar mass of unknown compound}\times \text{Mass of benzene in Kg}}$

where,

$\Delta T_f$ = change in freezing point = $5.53-1.37=4.16^oC$

$\Delta T_s$ = freezing point of solution

$\Delta T^o$ = freezing point of benzene

Molal-freezing-point-depression constant $(K_f)$ for benzene = $5.12^oC/m$

m = molality

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

$4.16^oC=(5.12^oC/m)\times \frac{6.45g}{\text{Molar mass of unknown compound}\times 0.04395kg}$

$\text{Molar mass of unknown compound}=180.6g/mol$

If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.

So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.

Mass of C = 42.9 g

Mass of H = 2.4 g

Mass of N = 16.7 g

Mass of O = 38.1 g

Molar mass of C = 12 g/mole

Molar mass of H = 1 g/mole

Molar mass of N = 14 g/mole

Molar mass of O = 16 g/mole

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C = $\frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{42.9g}{12g/mole}=3.575moles$

Moles of H = $\frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{2.4g}{1g/mole}=2.4moles$

Moles of N = $\frac{\text{ given mass of N}}{\text{ molar mass of N}}= \frac{16.7g}{14g/mole}=1.193moles$

Moles of O = $\frac{\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}= \frac{38.1g}{16g/mole}=2.381moles$

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C = $\frac{3.575}{1.193}=2.99\approx 3$

For H = $\frac{2.4}{1.193}=2.01\approx 2$

For N = $\frac{1.193}{1.193}=1$

For O = $\frac{2.381}{1.193}=1.99\approx 2$

The ratio of C : H : N : O = 3 : 2 : 1 : 2

The mole ratio of the element is represented by subscripts in empirical formula.

The Empirical formula = $C_3H_2N_1O_2$

The empirical formula weight = 3(12) + 2(1) + 1(14) + 2(16) = 84 gram/eq

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula of the compound.

Formula used :

$n=\frac{\text{Molecular formula}}{\text{Empirical formula weight}}$

$n=\frac{180.6}{84}=2$

Molecular formula = $(C_3H_2N_1O_2)_n=(C_3H_2N_1O_2)_2=C_6H_4N_2O_4$

Therefore, the molecular of the compound is, $C_6H_4N_2O_4$

Explain how the cell membrane controls the movement of materials into and out of the cell ?

sukhopar [10]

It's called simple diffusion, the small molecules without charges such as oxygen and carbon dioxide can flow through a plasma membrane without assistance and without expending energy. Other substances such as proteins, glucose and charged particles called ions cannot pass through the selectively permeable membrane.

Which two solutions would be the BEST choice for their experiment?

Margaret [11]

Solutions 1 and 3 because they are strong acids and a strong base. <u>Option A.</u>

<u />

Strong acids and strong bases are completely ionized in an aqueous solution. Weak acids and weak bases also ionize, but only partially and the reaction is reversible. So you know if an acid or base is strong or weak. A simple way to determine strength is to add the acid or base to water. A higher reactivity means a stronger acid or base.

One of the simplest tests to determine whether a solution is an acid or base is the litmus paper test. To do this, dip a special strip of paper so-called litmus paper into the solution and observe the color of the paper. Litmus paper turns red in acidic solutions and blue in basic solutions. Sodium hydroxide is the strongest base because it completely dissociates to form sodium and hydroxide ions. These hydroxide ions are further treated with hydrogen ions by an acid to completely ionize the hydrogen ions.
