A molecule contains five atoms and has a molecular weight of 85 g per mole. the atoms are of elements with atomic numbers 1, 6,
and 17. which molecular structure could represent this molecule?
1 answer:
Answer:
Dichloromethane
Explanation:
As we know the atomic number given belongs to following elements, i.e.
Atomic # Element M.Mass
1 Hydrogen 1 g.mol⁻¹
6 Carbon 12 g.mol⁻¹
17 Chlorine 35.5 g.mol⁻¹
Also the molecular formula of Dichloromethane is,
= CH₂Cl₂
Putting molar masses of each element,
= (12)₁ + (1)₂ + (35.5)₂
= 12 + 2 + 71
= 85 g.mol⁺¹
Result:
Hence the only possible structure containing 5 atoms is Dichloromethane.

converting to Kelvin
TK = TC + 273
TK = 25.0 + 273 → TK = 298.0 →
TK = TC + 273
TK = 50.0 + 273 → TK = 323.0 →

Answer:
<em>The three gases, in the three identical containers, will all have the same number of molecules</em>
Explanation:
If these three gases (Helium He, Neon Ne, and Oxygen ) are all contained in separate identical containers with the same volume. And they are all stored at the same temperature, and pressure. Then, they'll all contain the same number of molecules. This is in line with Avogadro's law which states that "Equal volume of all gases, at the same temperature and pressure, have the same number of molecules."
