Would the N=O bond in HNO2 be longer, shorter, or the same length as the N-O bonds in NO2-?
aivan3 [116]

Explanation:

Bond order is inversely proportional to the bond length.

B.O\propto \frac{1}{B.L}

In HNO_2 molecule. one nitrogen is double bonded to nitrogen and one oxygen is single bonded to nitrogen and hydrogen bond.

  • Bond order between the (N=O) bond is 2 which means that bond length between the (N=O) bond is shorter than that of the N-O bond.
  • Bond order between the (N-O) bond is 1 which means that bond length of the N-O bond is longer than that of the bond length of (N=O) bond.

Find the % by mass of the solute in 129.54 g C6H1206 in 525 g H20.
belka [17]

Answer:

19.79%

Explanation:

mass % = (mass solute / total mass) * 100

total mass = 129.54 + 525 = 654.54

solute = C6H12O6

(129.54/654.54) = .1979

.1979 * 100 = 19.79%
