1. what is the name of n2o5? (0.5 points) *

enter your answer

Explanation:

For question 13: The CO₂ molecule has a central carbon atom double-bonded to two oxygen atoms with no lone pairs, resulting in a linear geometry. For question 14: N₂O₅ is a covalent compound; prefixes indicate 2 nitrogen atoms ("di-") and 5 oxygen atoms ("penta-"), so it is named dinitrogen pentoxide.

Answer:

1. Linear
2. Dinitrogen pentoxide
