Answer 2

Answer:

A molecule of a compound containing two oxygen atoms and one nitrogen atom is nitrogen dioxide.

Explanation:

• Nitrogen dioxide is a gas an oxide of nitrogen. The molecular formula is $NO_{2}$ and molar mass is 46.0055g/mol.
• It is formed by reacting nitrogen monoxide with oxygen gas. The percentage composition of elements in $NO_{2}$ is oxygen – 69.554% and nitrogen - 30.446%.

• Nitrogen dioxide is a radical and hence is reactive in the atmosphere and when exposed to light it gets photolysed to nitrogen monoxide and oxygen.
