no it is not possible, because they both have the same number of valence electrons in each element. in a compound you are supposed to have two or more elements that have different numbers of valence electrons so when put together they for a compound.

The correct answer is
D).
Answer:
The pressure in the gas is 656mmHg
Explanation:
In calculating the pressure of the gas;
step 1: convert the height of the mercury arm to mmHg
9.60cm = 96.0 mmHg
step 2: convert 752 torr to mmHg
I torr is 1 mmHg
752 torr = 752mmHg
Step 3: since the level of mercury in the container is higher than the level of mercury exposed to the atmosphere, we substrate the values to obtain our pressure.
So, 752mmHg - 96mmHg = 656mmHg
The pressure in the gas container is therefore 656mmHg.
N. B : if the mercury arm is in lower position, you add.
