Answer:

$\huge{ \boxed{1.99 \: moles}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of moles of
N_2O can be found by using the formula

$n = (m)/(M) \\$

where

n is the number of moles

m is the mass in grams

M is the molar mass in g/mol

From the question

m = 87.5 g

Molar mass of
N_2O = (14×2) + 16 = 28 + 16 = 44 g/mol

$n = (87.5)/(44) = 1.98863... \\$

We have the final answer as
