This problem is providing the ratio of nitrogen to oxygen by mass in nitrogen monoxide, NO, as 7.0:8.0 and asks for the same ratio but in NO₂ and N₂O₇. After doing the calculations, the results are 7.0:16.0 and 1.0:4.0 respectively.

<h3>Mass ratios:</h3>

In chemistry, one can calculate the mass ratios in chemical formulas according to the atomic mass of each atom. In such a way, one knows the mass ratio of nitrogen to oxygen in NO is 7.0:8.0 because we divide the atomic mass of nitrogen by oxygens:

\frac{14}{16}=\frac{7.0}{8.0}

Now, for chemical formulas with subscripts, one must multiply the atomic mass of the element by the subscript in the formula, which is the case of NO₂ and N₂O₇ as shown below:

NO_2:\frac{14}{16*2}=\frac{14}{32} =\frac{7.0}{16.0}  \\&#10;\\&#10;N_2O_7:\frac{14*2}{16*7}=\frac{28}{112} =\frac{1.0}{4.0}

Therefore, the results for NO₂ and N₂O₇ are 7.0:16.0 and 1.0:4.0 respectively

What kind of questions CANNOT be answered by chemistry?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

d. why matter exists

Explanation:

The kind of questions that chemistry CANNOT answer is "why matter exists".

In Chemistry, question of how the properties, composition and structure of substances are is answered. Also, the transformations that these substances undergo, and the energy that they release or absorbe during the transformation processes are revealed in chemistry.

Chemistry can answer the question of what forms of matter exists but cannot answer why matter actually exists.

An element forms an oxide, E₂O₃, and a fluoride, EF₃.(a) Of which two groups might E be a member?
Fittoniya [83]

a) The E might belong to group 13.

As the formula of a chemical compound is derived by the cross multiplication of the valency of the atoms. As formula of the given oxide is  and valency of O atom is -2, therefore valency of element E must be +3 in order to obtain E2O3.

Also, in EF3, the valency of E will be +3 because there are three atoms of fluorine who has an individual valency of -1. Thus, e will have the valency of +3.

The Group 13 is the boron group which has the following elements:

  • Boron
  • Aluminium
  • Gallium
  • Indium
  • Thallium

All these elements have the valency of +3.
