The chemical formula does not show how the atoms are connected to one another.
When we write the chemical formula of any substance, we are not able to understand the spatial arrangement of that substance's atoms. This is extremely important in organic compounds, which exhibit different physical characteristics as well as different chemical characteristics due to the way their atoms are arranged in space. These isomers are known as enantiomers.

select all that apply... Which of the following have energy stored as chemical energy? nuclear...petroleum...biomass...geotherma
d1i1m1o1n [39]
<span>Petroleum and biomass are burned in combustion reactions, which liberate energy stored in chemical bonds. This is chemical energy. In contrast, nuclear energy comes from the conversion of mass into energy when an nuclear reaction occurs. Geothermal energy comes directly from heat sources underground, with no chemical or nuclear reactions.</span>

How many atoms of N are in 137.0 grams of N2O3?
olasank [31]

Answer: The number of N atoms in 137.0 g of N2O3 21.67 x 10∧23 atoms.

Explanation:

  • We must obtain the number of moles of the compound: (n = mass/molar mass), mass = 137.0 g and molar mass of N2O3 = 76.01 g/mol.
  • n = (137.0 g)/ (76.01 g/mol) = 1.80 mol.
  • It is necessary to determine the number of molecules of this sample.
  • Every mole contains Avagadro's number (6.02 x 10^23) of molecules.
  • The number of molecules = (6.02 x 10^23)(1.80) = 10.84 x 10∧23 molecules.
  • Every molecule of N2O3 contain 2 atoms of N.
  • The number of N atoms in 137.0 g of N2O3 = (10.84 x 10∧23 molecule) (2 atoms) = 21.67 x 10∧23 atoms.
