The compound FeCI3 is made of ?

Chemistry

Hello! Your answer is C, one atom of iron and three atoms of chlorine.

In this case, there is some ambiguity with "Cl". It could be C + I, or Cl. (One being carbon + iodine and the other Chlorine). However, we can see that the only choice that mentions iodine states two atoms, which is incorrect, as if it was iodine, the 3 indicates that there would be three atoms.

Therefore, Cl must be chlorine. If you look at choice C, there are three atoms of chlorine, as indicated by the 3 at the end of the Cl. There is also one molecule of Fe, as there is no number at the end of it so there has to be only one.

B is not correct, as carbon would be only "C". A is not correct as a molecule is a collection of atoms bonded together, therefore, this compound could be named a molecule, but there are not multiple molecules inside this compound.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

C(one atom of iron and three atoms of chlorine

Explanation:

one atom of iron = Fe

three atoms of chlorine  = Cl₃

Fe²⁺ +  3Cl⁻ → FeCl₃

How many elements and atoms are in marble
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Scientists know that there are 6x1023 molecules in a mole - so we have about 0.5x1023 molecules in our marble…and since every silicon dioxide molecule has one atom of silicon and two of oxygen, we have a grand total of 1.5x1023 atoms. That's 150,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 atoms

What is the molecular formula of the hydrocarbon whose molar mass is 536 g/mol and contains 89.55 w/w% carbon?
leonid [27]

Given the percentage composition of HC as C → 81.82 % and H → 18.18 %

So the ratio of number if atoms of C and H in its molecule can will be:

C : H = 81.82 12 : 18.18 1 C : H = 6.82 : 18.18 = 6.82 6.82 : 18.18 6.82 = 1 : 2.66 ≈ 3 : 8

So the Empirical Formula of hydrocarbon is:

C 3 H 8

As the mass of one litre of hydrocarbon is same as that of C O 2 The molar mass of the HC will be same as that of C O 2 i.e 44 g mol

Now let Molecular formula of the HC be ( C 3 H 8 ) n

Using molar mass of C and H the molar mass of the HC from its molecular formula is:

( 3 × 12 + 8 × 1 ) n = 44 n So 44 n = 44 ⇒ n = 1

Hence the molecular formula of HC is C 3 H 8

Does that help?
