A compound contains only nitrogen and oxygen and has a formula mass of 44.02. What is the formula of the compound

1 answer:

8 0

N₂O

N = 14.01 amu
O ≈ 16 amu

14.01 × 2 = 28.02 ; 2 Nitrogen

44.02 - 28.02 = 16 ; 1 Oxygen

Check

28.02 + 16 ≈ 44.02amu

Answer:

I believe it is D

Explanation:

since Rutherford's explanation, when he made it in 1911, was that scattering was caused by a hard, dense court to centre of the Adam, which is the nucleus and he used Alpha particles to observe the scattered backwards from a gold foil

What is the process used to convert between moles, mass, volume, and particles?

Roman55 [17]

conversion between mass and moles#

 

A substance's molar mass is calculated by multiplying its relative atomic mass by the molar mass constant (1 g/mol). The molar mass constant can be used to convert mass to moles. By multiplying a given mass by the molar mass, the amount of moles of the substance can be calculated.

Select the properly written and balanced equation for the following chemical reaction: Sodium metal and an aqueous solution of m

Setler [38]

Answer: $2Na(s)+MgI_2 (aq)\rightarrow 2NaI(aq)+Mg(s)$

Explanation: The chemical reaction is written by writing down the chemical formulas of the reactants on the left hand side and the chemical formulas of products on the right hand side separated by a right arrow.

This is a single displacement reaction in which a more reactive element displaces the less reactive element from its salt solution. Thus sodium is more reactive than Mg and thus displaces it from $MgI_2$ .

$2Na(s)+MgI_2 (aq)\rightarrow 2NaI(aq)+Mg(s)$

The number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the reaction so as to follow the law of conservation of mass. Thus the equation is balanced.
