Answer #1

1. N2O5

Molar mass of N2O5 = 108.01 g/mol

mass of N2 present in 1 mole of N2O5 = 28 grams


percent composition of nitrogen = mass of N2/ total mass *100

    = 28/108.01*100

   = 25.92%


2. HNO2

Molar mass of HNO2 = 47.013 g/mol

mass of N present in 1 mole of HNO2 = 14 grams

percent composition of nitrogen = mass of N/ total mass *100

    = 14/47.013*100

   = 29.78%
