Answer:

N₂O₂

Explanation:

The empirical formula NO tells us that the number of Nitrogen atoms will always be equal to the number of Oxygen atoms.

The <em>molar mass of the simplest compound, NO</em>, would be:

  • Molar Mass of NO = Molar Mass of N + Molar Mass of O = 30 g/mol

We <u>divide the molar mass of the problem compound by the molar mass of the simplest compound</u>:

  • 59.98 / 30 ≅ 2

This means we<u> multiply the empirical formula times </u><u>2</u>:

  • The molecular formula is N₂O₂

How does energy flow through the reef ecosystem?
Free_Kalibri [48]
Photosynthesizing plants and algae convert light energy into chemical energy, which then gets passed through the food web to plant eaters, flesh eaters, and ultimately to scavengers and decomposers.

What are the stages of the life cycle of the sun
Jet001 [13]
The Sun is currently a main sequence star and will remain so for another 4-5 billion years. It will then expand and cool to become a red giant, after which it will shrink and heat up again to become a white dwarf. The white dwarf star will run out of nuclear fuel and slowly cool down over many billions of years.
