Answer:

NO2 is the molecular formula of nitrogen Oxide​

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct question

An oxide of nitrogen contain its own volume of nitrogen

its vapour dentity is 23. Find the molecular formula

Of nitrogen Oxide

Solution

As we know

Molecular Weight is equal to two times the vapour density

Hence, the molecular weight of Oxide of nitrogen is 2 * 22 = 44

Molecular weight of Oxide of nitrogen is the sum of atomic weight of nitrogen and oxygen

Molecular weight of Oxide of nitrogen = 14 + 16 *Y

14 + 16 *Y = 46

Y = 2

Hence, the formula is NO2
