The chemical formula of aluminium nitrate is - Al(NO₃)₃
cation is Al³⁺
anion is NO₃⁻
One Al atom binds to three nitrate groups 
the options given are 
2. <span>It has three aluminum (Al) atoms 
this is incorrect as there's only one Al atom 
3. </span><span>It has one NO3 group.
this is incorrect as there are three nitrate groups
4. </span><span>It has nine nitrogen (N) atoms
there are only 3 N atoms therefore this too is incorrect 
</span>therefore the correct answer is - 
It has three NO₃<span> groups


</span>

How does the law of conservation of mass relate to the number of atoms of each element that are present before a reaction vs. th
TiliK225 [7]
The law of conservation of mass or principle of mass conservation states that for any system closed to all transfers of matter and energy, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, as system's mass cannot change, so quantity cannot be added nor removed. Hence, the quantity of mass is conserved over time.

The law implies that mass can neither be created nor destroyed, although it may be rearranged in space, or the entities associated with it may be changed in form. For example, in chemical reactions, the mass of the chemical components before the reaction is equal to the mass of the components after the reaction. Thus, during any chemical reaction and low-energy thermodynamic processes in an isolated system, the total mass of the reactants, or starting materials, must be equal to the mass of the products.

According to the Law of Conservation, all atoms of the reactant(s) must equal the atoms of the product(s).
As a result, we need to balance chemical equations. We do this by adding in coefficients to the reactants and/or products. The compound(s) itself/themselves DOES NOT CHANGE.

_____ is a measure of the average kinetic energy of a gas. Density Enthalpy Pressure Temperature
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Temperature

Explanation:

  • Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of a gas.
  • Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object because of its motion. As an object absorbs heat the particles move faster so the average kinetic energy and therefore the temperature increases.
  • When the temperature of a body or an object is increased and hence the heat, there is more movement or vibration of particles which translates to more kinetic energy.
