Hi!
I have a test coming tomorrow and I can't figure this problem out :
0.77mg sample of nitrogen reacts with chlorine to form 6.61 mg of the chloride . Determine the empirical formula of nitrogen chloride.
Don't worry, I've tried this problem. I found N5Cl17 but the answer in the books says NCl3
What did I do wrong? I transformed 0.77mg to gram and then mols than I did the same thing using 6.61mg of chlorine and transformed it into mols then divide the smallest mol number ...
