Answer:

92.01 g/mol

Explanation:

So first you need to find the empirical formula by the percents. That would be, assuming that you have 100 grams of the the sample, divide each quantity of each element found by its respective molar mass.

30.4 g of N ÷ 14 g/mol N= 2.17 mol of N

69.6 g of O ÷ 16g/mol= 4.35 mol of O

You can establish now the empirical formula.

N2.17O4.35,

but since you can't have a decimal subscript, you divide each subscript by the minimum subscript

NO2

So then you're said that the molecular formula derived from that empirical formula has 2 nitrogen, so you multiply all the subscripts, by 2:

N2O4

-Dinitrogen Tetraoxide

-Nitrogen oxide (IV)

Then all you have to do is find the molecular mass of the compound using the periodic table and what you obtain is the molar mass.

remember: molecular mass is correspondent to molar mass.

How many molecules of he are contained in a 10.0 l tank at 7.53 atm and 485 k?
ankoles [38]

Answer:

1.126 x 10^22

Explanation:

pV = nRT

7.53 x 10 = n x 8.31 x 485

n = (7.53 x 10) / (8.31 x 485) = 0.0187 moles

M = n x Avogadros number

0.0187 x 6.02 x 10^23 = 1.126 x 10^22

How might cell division help multicellular organisms maintain and repair cells
Komok [63]
Because when the cells divide (resulting in more cells) the multicellular organism mantains its strong cells and when one cell is damaged the other cells compensate for that damaged cell.

If Jerome is swinging on a rope and transferring energy from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy, _____... is being
Pachacha [2.7K]

<u>Answer;</u>

-Work

If Jerome is swinging on a rope and transferring energy from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy, <u>work </u> is being done.

<u>Explanation;</u>

  • Work refers to the application of a given force over a distance. Thus, we can say work is the product of force and distance.
  • Energy on the other hand is the ability of a body to change, its location, shape, or state of another body.
  • According to the work-Energy principle, a change in the kinetic energy, which is the energy possessed by a body in motion, is equivalent to the net work done on the body.
