Explanation:

Mass of the organic compound = 200g

Mass of carbon = 83.884g

Mass of hydrogen = 10.486g

Mass of oxygen = 18.640g

The mass of nitrogen = mass of organic compound - (mass of carbon + mass of hydrogen + mass of oxygen)

Mass of nitrogen = 200 - (83.884 + 10.486 + 18.64) = 200 - 113.01‬

Mass of nitrogen = 86.99g

The empirical formula of a compound is its simplest formula.

It is derived as shown below;

Below are the choices that can be found from other sources:

A) elements
B) ions
C) molecules
D) neutrons

the answer is ions.

A Star and hence our Sun, is an almost entirely ionized ball of plasma, consisting of electrons and ions, in which there is hardly any gas (neutral atoms). The movement of the plasma produces strong magnetic fields and corresponding electric currents.
