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
If you would’ve attached a picture I’m sure it would’ve been a lot easier.
Answer:
Explanation:
Mass of F / Mass of S = 2.962/1 =2.962 X 32 / 32 = 94.78/32
Mass of F / Mass of S = 2.370 /1 = 2.370 X 32 / 32 = 75.84 /32
Mass of F /Mass of S = 3.555/1 = 3.555 x 32 / 32 = 113.76 / 32 .
Now constant mass of S that is 32 g reacts with different mass of F. They are as follows :
94.78 g , 75.84 g , and 113.76 g
Their ratio = 94.78 : 75.84 : 113.76
divide them by 19
their ratio = 5 : 4 : 6
So these data are consistent with law of multiple proportion.
