Lewis Structure Problem Please help!!! Thanks in advance!?

Question

An oxide of nitrogen is 25.9% N by mass, has a molar mass of 108 g/mol, and contains no nitrogen-nitrogen or oxygen-oxygen bonds. Draw the Lewis structure and use it to determine each of the following:

name of the molecule
wrong check mark

total number of valence electrons


number of lone pairs of valence electrons


total number of NO bonds


formal charge on N


formal charge on the most central O


O-N-O bond angle (ideal value)
°

N-O-N bond angle (ideal value)

Answer 1

N2O5

O2N-O-NO2

dinitrogenpenoxide

Answer 2

dinitrogen pentoxide, an important nitrogen reservoir in polar stratospheric clouds found in Antarctica and involved with the ozone hole.

Let's examine the molecular structures of some oxides of nitrogen. The oxides of nitrogen, NO and NO2, are notorious as air pollutants from combustion sources, such as cars and electric power plants. Another common oxide is N2O known as laughing gas. Draw or look up the Lewis dot structures for these oxides of nitrogen.

Here are the typical bond lengths for single, double, and triple nitrogen-to-nitrogen bonds.

single bond 147 pm
double bond 124 pm
triple bond 110 pm

Answer 4

i'm not quite sure about 1 or the weaknesses of 3 but: 2. the advantages could be that it provides you with the moleculer shape of the molecule which gives you the bond angle 3. i suppose an advantage could be that each molecule makes the strongest bonds possible i'm really sorry - i'm really not much help
