Answer:

Ionic compounds

Explanation:

Molecular formula consists of chemical symbols for constituent elements followed by the numeric subscripts describing number of the atoms of each element present in one molecule of the compound.

On the other hand, ionic compounds do not exist in the form of molecules. They are in the form of crystal lattice in the solid state which contains many ions each of cation and anion.

<u>Thus, a ionic compounds are unable to write a molecular formula. Empirical formulas to used to represent them.</u>

Ionic compounds generally occur between metals and non-metals due to their large electronegativity difference. You can simple go down Group 1 and Group 17 of the periodic table.

Examples:

NaCl (Sodium Chloride)
KCl (Potassium Chloride)
RbCl (Rubidium Chloride)
CsCl (Cesium Chloride)

Consider the reaction.

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

when the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal

Explanation:

In a chemical system, the reaction reaches a dynamic equilibrium when the rate of formation of product equals the rate of formation of reactants. This implies that both the forward and revered(backwards) reaction are occurring at the same rate.
