Nitrogen combines with oxygen to form nitrogen monoxide (no) and nitrogen dioxide (no2). a sample of no consists of 1.14 g of oxygen and 1 g of nitrogen. how many grams of oxygen combine with 1 g of nitrogen to form no2if the ratio of the masses of oxygen in these two compounds is exactly 1: 2?

2N2 + 3O2 ---> 2NO + 2NO2  
You should do it based on moles and not grams. 
1.14 g O = 0.071 moles O 
1 g N = 0.071 moles N  
So in NO2 you need 2 moles O for each mole of N 
1 g N = 0.071 moles, so you need 0.071 x 2 moles of O = 0.0.142 moles O 
0.142 moles O x 16 g/mol = 2.27 grams of O. So, you are actually correct because your answer is 2.28 grams. I just prefer to work it out in moles so it makes perfect chemical sense.

Atomicity occurs to prevent updates of the database occurring only partially, which can cause greater problems than rejecting the whole series outright.some are monatomic, diatomic, triatomic etc because it shows the number of atoms. for example, monatomic means it contains only one atom.
