A compound's empirical formula tells you what the smallest whole number ratio between the atoms that make up that compound is.

I think of the empirical formula as a building block for molecules. A compound's molecular formula will depend on how many building blocks are needed to build a molecule of a given substance.

In your example, you know that the empirical formula of the compound is

NO

2

.

This tells you that the minimum ratio between nitrogen atoms and oxygen atoms is

1

:

2

. In other words, the molecular formula will be a multiple of this building block.

n

, where

n

- the number of building blocks needed to build the molecular formula.

You also know that the molar mass of your compound is

92 g/mol

.

This means that the molar mass of all the atoms that make up that molecule must add up to give

92 g/mol

.

So, how would you determine how many building blocks you need? Well, start by figuring out the molar mass of one building block, i.e. the molar mass of the empirical formula.

Since it contains one nitrogen atom and two oxygen atoms, you will get

So, if one building block has a molar mass of

, how many would you need to get the molecule?

Which of the following statements related to S N1 reactions is not true? - The heterolysis of a bond between atoms which do not
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The charged carbon atom of a carbocation has a complete octet of valence shell electrons

Explanation:

A charged carbon atom of a carbocation has a valence shell that is not filled, <u>that's why it acts as an electrophile (or a Lewis base)</u>. This unfilled valence shell is also the reason of the nucleophilic attack that takes place during the second step of a SN1 reaction.

A single electron configuration can represent multiple atoms. The one below represents the following atoms with different charge
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

To have the electronic configuration equal to 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d⁷, the chemical element must have an electrical charge equal to 27, that is, it must have 27 electrons, such as Cobalt (Co), for example.

Explanation:

The electronic configuration shown in the question above is known as the Linus Pauling distribution and represents the energy sub-levels that an electrically charged atom can have in relation to the amount of electrons it has.

The layers sub-levels are presented in the following order 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹º 4p⁶ 5s² 4d¹º 5p⁶ 6s² 4f14 5d¹º 6p⁶ 7s² 5f14 6d¹º 7p⁶. Where the small numbers represent the number of electrons in each sub-level and the large numbers represent the layers of electronic distribution.

Accordingly, we can see that an atom that has the configuration 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d⁷ has 27 electrons, like Cobalt.

Two moles of an ideal gas are placed in a container whose volume is 2.3 x 10^-3 m3. The absolute pressure of the gas is 6.9 x 10
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

K.E.=1.97\times 10^{-21}\ J

Explanation:

Given that:-

Pressure = 6.9\times 10^5\ Pa

The expression for the conversion of pressure in Pascal to pressure in atm is shown below:

P (Pa) = \frac {1}{101325} P (atm)

Given the value of pressure = 43,836 Pa

So,  

6.9\times 10^5\ Pa = \frac{6.9\times 10^5}{101325} atm

Pressure = 6.80977 atm

Volume = 2.3\times 10^{-3}\ m^3 = 2.3 L ( 1 m³ = 1000 L)

n = 2 mol

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

6.80977 atm × 2.3 L = 2 mol × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × T

⇒T = 95.39 K

The expression for the kinetic energy is:-

K.E.=\frac{3}{2}\times K\times T

k is Boltzmann's constant = 1.38\times 10^{-23}\ J/K

T is the temperature

So, K.E.=\frac{3}{2}\times 1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 95.39\ J

K.E.=1.97\times 10^{-21}\ J

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

<em>Hydrogen.</em>

Explanation:

You've probably seen "H_{2}0" which is the formula for water. It means that there's 2 hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom, in one molecule of water.
