Question

A certain compound is made up of one carbon (c) atom, two bromine (br) atoms, and one oxygen (o) atom. what is the chemical formula of this compound

Answer 1

Answer:
           Chemical Formula  =  COBr₂

           Structural Formula  =  Attached Below

           IUPAC Name  =  Carbonic Dibromide

           Common Name  =  Bromophosgene

As we know Carbon has the tendency to form four covalent bonds, Oxygen can form two covalent bonds and Bromine can form a single bond. Keeping this in mind we can say that in given compound carbon is forming two single bonds with two bromine atoms and a double bond with oxygen atom. Therefore, the valencies of all elements in the given compound are satisfied and completed.

Answer 2

Answer:

The chemical formula of the compound will be COBr2.

Further details:

• The chemical formula of the compound is COBr2.

• The IUPAC name is Carbonic Dibromide

• The common name of the compound is Bromophosgene

As we know Carbon has the propensity to form four covalent bonds, Oxygen can form two covalent bonds and Bromine can form a single bond. Keeping this in mind we can say that in given compound carbon are making two single bonds with two bromine atoms and a double bond with oxygen atom. So, the valencies of all essentials in the given compound are fulfilled and accomplished.

Formation of Carbon dibromide:

Carbonyl bromide is made when carbon tetrabromide is melted and concentrated sulfuric acid is added.

In compare to phosgene, carbonyl bromide cannot be twisted efficiently from carbon monoxide and bromine. A complete alteration is not possible due to thermodynamic causes. Additionally, the reaction

                            CO + Br2 ⇌ COBr2
