A compound was found to contain nitrogen and oxygen in the ratio `28 g` and `80 g` respectively. The formula of compound is

A

(a)`NO`

B

(b)`N_(2)O_(3)`

C

(c )`N_(2)O_(5)`

D

(d)`N_(2)O_(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
No. of nitrogen atoms=`("Mass in grams")/("Atomic wt.")=28/14=2`
No. of oxygen atoms`=("Mass in grams")/("Atomic wt.")=80/16=5`
`:.` Formula of compound is `N_(2)O_(5)`.
