A chemical formula shows the kinds and numbers of <u>atoms</u> in the smallest representative unit of a substance.
<u>Explanation:</u>
In chemistry, a formula unit is the empirical formula of "ionic or covalent network solid compound" that is used as an independent entity for "stoichiometric calculations". This formula is a representation of a molecule that uses chemical symbols.
The unit is the lowest whole number ratio of ions represented in an ionic compound. It gives the numbers of atoms representing the "smallest representative" unit of a substance. The number of atoms also tells us about the chemical and physical properties of the compound formed.
Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Wood is a mixture of different substances. Primarily it consists of cellulose, lignin, water etc.
When we heat wood then all these substance oxidize into the atmosphere even before they could melt.
Whereas iron, sodium chloride and ethanol all are the substances which can melt at any temperature.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, wood, a mixture of different substances is a material that does not melt at any temperature.
Because the oily part of its molecule tends to lay up against solid surfaces, but without much in the way of areas of electric charge that would cause it to stick more firmly to that surface.
A=Mass number=24
N=neutrons=13
Z=atomic number.
A=Z+N
24=Z+13
Z=24-13
Z=11
The atomic number is 11, and this atom is sodium.
