Answer:
The answer to your question is: NO₂
Explanation:
Data
N = 30.45% = 30.45 g
O = 69.55% = 69.55 g
MW N = 14 g
MW O = 16 g
14 g of N ----------------- 1 mol
30.45 g ---------------- x
x = (30.45 x 1) / 14
x = 2.18 mol of N
16 g of O ---------------- 1 mol
69.55 g ------------------ x
x = (69.55 x 1) / 16
x = 4.35 mol of O
Divide by the lowest number of moles
For N = 2.18 / 2.18 = 1
For O = 4.35 / 2.18 = 1.99 ≈ 2.0
Formula = NO₂
