The chemical formula does not show how the atoms are connected to one another.
When we write the chemical formula of any substance, we are not able to understand the spatial arrangement of that substance's atoms. This is extremely important in organic compounds, which exhibit different physical characteristics as well as different chemical characteristics due to the way their atoms are arranged in space. These isomers are known as enantiomers.

What is the molarity of a solution that contains 0.400 mol HCI in 9.79 L solutions ​
USPshnik [31]

Molarity's formula is known as: Molarity(M)=moles of solute/liters solution.

In this case we are already given moles and liters so you just have to plug the numbers into the equation.

0.400 mol HCL/9.79L solution=0.040858M

If you were to use scientific notation, the answer will be: 4.1*10^-2, but otherwise, you can just use the decimals above and round appropriately as you see fit.

The equation below represents a double replacement/displacement reaction;
Naddik [55]
AB+XY->AY+XB
We know that the answer would be KCl because of the switching that takes place during a double displacement reaction. Just like Zn and MnO4 switched and combined, the remaining elements, K and Cl, will combine.
We know that the answer is simply KCl because both K and Cl have an ion of only +/-1, meaning when they cross, no suffixes are made, since their ions are only 1.
For example, if you combined Mg with Cl, you would get MgCl2, because Mg has an ion of +2.
I hope this helps!
