Answer:

%N = 25.94%

%O = 74.06%

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the mass of nitrogen in 1 mole of N₂O₅

We will multiply the molar mass of N by the number of N atoms in the formula of N₂O₅.

m(N): 2 × 14.01 g = 28.02 g

Step 2: Calculate the mass of oxygen in 1 mole of N₂O₅

We will multiply the molar mass of O by the number of O atoms in the formula of N₂O₅.

m(O): 5 × 16.00 g = 80.00 g

Step 3: Calculate the mass of 1 mole of N₂O₅

We will sum the masses of N and O.

m(N₂O₅) = m(N) + m(O) = 28.02 g + 80.00 g = 108.02 g

Step 4: Calculate the percent composition of N₂O₅

We will use the following expression.

%Element = m(Element)/m(Compound) × 100%

%N = m(N)/m(N₂O₅) × 100% = 28.02 g/108.02 g × 100% = 25.94%

%O = m(O)/m(N₂O₅) × 100% = 80.00 g/108.02 g × 100% = 74.06%

How are heterogeneous and homogeneous mixtures separated?

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Explanation:

In heterogeneous mixtures, two or more ingredients (or phases, regions with uniform composition and properties) intermingle, but remain physically separate. Often it is possible to separate the original ingredients by physical means, such as filtering.

Which would most likely be joined by an ionic bond?

KATRIN_1 [288]

An ionic bond is composed of a cation and anion, which are charged ions. You cannot have atoms with ionic bonds, because there is no opposite attraction between charges due to atoms having a net nuclear charge of zero. Therefore, a cation and anion would most likely be joined by an ionic bond.

When is a covalent bond described as polar? Choose one: when electrons are transferred from one atom to another if covalently bo

melomori [17]

Answer:

if electrons are shared unequally between bonded atoms

Explanation:

A polar covalent bond is a bond that is formed due to the unequal distribution of electrons between two partially charged atoms. This is observed when the difference in electronegativity between the bond atoms is between 0.5 and 1.7.

A polar bond is a covalent bond between two atoms where the electrons that form the bond are unevenly distributed. This causes the molecule to have a slight electric dipole moment where one end is slightly positive and the other is slightly negative.

The charge of the electric dipoles is less than a full unit charge, so they are considered partial charges and are called delta plus (δ +) and delta minus (δ-).

Because positive and negative charges are separated at the bond, molecules with polar covalent bonds interact with the dipoles of other molecules. This produces intermolecular dipole-dipole forces between the molecules.
