Acompound consists of 4.50 g of nitrogen for every 7.71 g of oxygen and has the same empirical and molecular formula identify the compound

Explanation:

Hi, the empirical formula is the minimal expression of the molecule composition and doesn't always represent the molecule in the reality.

On the other hand the molecular formula is a multiple of the empirical and represents how the molecule is composed in reality.

In this case they are the same.

Now, nitrogen has an atomic weight of 14 g/mol and oxygen one of 16 g/mol:

So the formula would be:

Dividing per 0.321:

In natural numbers:

m=9

step-by-step explanation:

the volume increases
