We may use the molecular formula of the compound to determine the number of oxygen atoms in one formula unit. The formula unit is:
Mg(NO₃)₂
Here, we can see that there are two nitrate ions in each mole, and each mole of nitrate ion contains three oxygen atoms. Thus, there are 6 oxygen atoms in each formula unit of magnesium nitrate.
A 20 L sample of the gas contains 8.3 mol N₂.
According to <em>Avogadro’s Law,</em> if <em>p</em> and <em>T</em> are constant
<em>V</em>₂/<em>V</em>₁ = <em>n</em>₂/<em>n</em>₁
<em>n</em>₂ = <em>n</em>₁ × <em>V</em>₂/<em>V</em>₁
___________
<em>n</em>₁ = 0.5 mol; <em>V</em>₁ = 1.2 L
<em>n</em>₂ = ?; <em>V</em>₂ = 20 L
∴<em>n</em>₂ = 0.5 mol × (20 L/1.2 L) = 8.3 mol
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Polar: IF, PCl3, IF5
Nonpolar: CS2, SO3, SF6
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
- Polar molecules form when two atoms do not share electrons equally in a covalent bond.
- A molecule is classified as a polar molecule when the arrangement of the atoms is such that one end of the molecule has a positive electrical charge and the other end has a negative charge.
- A non-polar molecule does not have electrical poles.The electrons are distributed more equally.
- Therefore, a non-polar molecule does not have a profusion of charges at the opposite ends. The majority of hydrocarbon liquids are non-polar molecules.
