<h2>Answer and Explanation </h2>
Nitrogen is present in group 5. It contains 7 electrons and protons. It has 2 electrons in its first shell and 5 electrons in second shell. In order to determine the atomic number of nitrogen, we should know about the number of protons or electrons of the atom.
Atomic number is denoted by Z. Z= number of protons. Hence, nitrogen consists of seven protons as well as seven electrons. Therefore, its atomic number (Z) will also be 7.
Answer:
2-pentanone
Explanation:
The oxygen atom is attached to the 2nd carbon atom in the longest linear chain, thus the prefix 2. the longest continuous carbon chain has five carbon atoms giving it the prefix pent-. the chemical is a ketone thus the suffix none.
The empirical formula is SCl_2.
The <em>empirical formula</em> (EF) is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.
The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of moles.
So, our job is to calculate the <em>molar ratio </em>of S to Cl.
Assume that you have 100 g of sample.
Then it contains 31.14 g S and 68.86 g Cl.
<em>Step</em> 1. Calculate the <em>moles of each element</em>
Moles of S = 31.14 g S × (1 mol S/(32.06 g S) = 0.971 30 mol S
Moles of Cl = 68.86 g Cl × (1 mol Cl/35.45 g Cl) = 1.9425 mol Cl
<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the <em>molar ratio</em> of each element
Divide each number by the smallest number of moles and round off to an integer
S:Cl = 0.971 30: 1.9425 = 1:1.9998 ≈ 1:2
<em>Step 3</em>: Write the <em>empirical formula</em>
EF = SCl_2
