Answer:

NO_{1.499}

Explanation:

Let assume that 100 kg of the compound is tested. The quantity of kilomoles for each element are, respectively:

n_{N} = \frac{36.86\,kg}{14.006\,\frac{kg}{kmol} }

n_{N} = 2.632\,kmol

n_{O} = \frac{63.14\,kg}{15.999\,\frac{kg}{kmol} }

n_{O} = 3.946\,kmol

Ratio of kilomoles oxygen to kilomole nitrogen is:

n^{*} = \frac{3.946\,kmol}{2.632\,kmol}

n^{*}= 1.499

It means that exists 1.499 kilomole oxygen for each kilomole nitrogen.

The empirical formula for the compound is:

NO_{1.499}

Answer:

N₂O₃

Explanation:

Empirical Formula: The Empirical formula of a compound is the smallest formula of that compound that tells us the component element in the molecule of that compound and the ratio in which these elements are combined together.

From the question,

Given: N = 36.86 %, 0 = 63.14 %

Step 1: divide by their relative atomic mass.

N                 :              O

36.86/14                   63.14/16

2.633           :              3.946

Step 2: Divide by the smallest

N                       :          O

2.633/2.633                3.946/2.633

1                       :            1.5

1                       :           3/2

2                       :            3

Hence the empirical formula = N₂O₃

What is an atomic theory?
seraphim [82]

Answer: the theory that all matter is made up of tiny indivisible particles (atoms). According to the modern version, the atoms of each element are effectively identical, but differ from those of other elements, and unite to form compounds in fixed proportions.

The acceleration due to gravity is higher on juniper Than on earth. The mass and weight of rock on juniper compared to that on e
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

2.5 times higher then that on the Earth

Explanation:

Gravity is higher on Jupiter then on Earth because Jupiter is much bigger, because of it's mass compared to Earth the gravity on Jupiter is about 2.4 - 2.5 times higher then Earths surface gravity which means a rock on Jupiter would be around "2.4 - 2.5 times as heavier then it would be on Earth."

Hope this helps.

To charge an electroscope negatively by induction you need: a) a positively charged rod and a ground b) a negatively charged rod
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Option a)

Explanation:

In the process of charging anything by the method of induction, a charged body is brought near to the body which is neutral or uncharged without any physical contact and the ground must be provided to the uncharged body.

The charge is induced and the nature of the induced charge is opposite to that of the charge present on the charged body.

So when a positively charged rod is used to charge an electroscope, the rod which is positive attracts the negative charge in the electroscope and the grounding of the electroscope ensures the removal of the positive charge and renders the electroscope negatively charged.
