Covalent compounds are composed of atoms that are linked via covalent bonds i.e. bonds formed by mutual sharing of electrons. This is in complete contrast to ionic compounds which are held together by ionic bonds, i.e. bonds formed by complete transfer of electrons from one atom to the other.
In the given examples we have:
Barium nitrate: Ba(NO3)2 - Ionic
Dinitrogen tetroxide: N2O4- Covalent
Boron trifluoride: BF3-Covalent
Ammonium sulfate: (NH4)2SO4- Ionic
Carbon tetrachloride: CCl4- Covalent
Barium chloride: BaCl2 - Ionic
<span>Let's assume
that the oxygen gas has ideal gas behavior.
Then we can use ideal gas formula,
PV = nRT</span>
Where, P is the pressure of the gas (Pa), V is the volume of the gas
(m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the universal gas
constant ( 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹) and T is temperature in Kelvin.
<span>
P = 2.2 atm = 222915 Pa
V = 21 L = 21 x 10</span>⁻³ m³
n = ?
R = 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹
<span>
T = 87 °C = 360 K
By substitution,
</span>222915 Pa x 21 x 10⁻³ m³ = n x 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻<span>¹ x 360 K
n
= 1.56</span><span> mol</span>
<span>
Hence, 1.56 moles of the oxygen gas are </span><span>
left for you to breath.</span><span>

False, Atoms are the smallest units of matter that display both the chemical and physical properties of it, based on the structure of the atom.
