Here we have to determine the formula of the ionic compound formed between a and iodine.

The ionic compounds are those which remains in ionic state in its solution phase. The formula of the compound aF₃ which reveals the element a is trivalent i.e. a³⁺. It will remain in ionic state as follows: aF₃ → a³⁺ + 3F⁻.

As the element a is trivalent thus with iodine also it will combine like fluorine  (as both belongs to the same halogen group). The formula of the compound will be aI₃ and it will be ionic in nature. The ions will be aI₃ → a³⁺ + 3I⁻.

Thus the formula of  the ionic compound between a and iodine is determined.

The average distance a gas particle travels between collisions (with the wall or another particle) is called its?
melamori03 [73]

The average distance a gas particle travels between collisions (with the wall or another particle is called the mean free path.

According to the kinetic theory of gases, the particles of a gas (atoms or molecules) have the highest kinetic energy and travel at high speeds. At standard temperature and pressure, a gas particle can reach speeds of about 470m/s.

Despite the high speeds gas particles travel, it still takes a while for the fragrance of an opened perfume to diffuse to the other end of the room. This is because when moving, the molecules do not have a free path. They constantly collide with other particles and the walls of the container and change direction randomly. The average distance a single particle can travel without colliding with other particles, or the wall of the container is called the mean free path.
