how many atoms of nitrogen? (1.4 points)
extra content
3n₄o₁₀
a. 3
b. 4
c. 10
d. 12

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the chemical formula

In the formula \(3N_4O_{10}\), the subscript \(4\) next to \(N\) represents the number of nitrogen atoms in one unit of the compound. The coefficient \(3\) in front of the formula means there are \(3\) such units.

Step2: Calculate the total number of nitrogen atoms

Multiply the number of nitrogen atoms in one unit (\(4\)) by the number of units (\(3\)). So, \(3\times4 = 12\).

Answer:

D. 12
