Answer:
#Molecules XeF₆ = 2.75 x 10²³ molecules XeF₆.
Explanation:
Given … Excess Xe + 12.9L F₂ @298K & 2.6Atm => ? molecules XeF₆
1. Convert 12.9L 298K & 2.6Atm to STP conditions so 22.4L/mole can be used to determine moles of F₂ used.
=> V(F₂ @ STP) = 12.6L(273K/298K)(2.6Atm/1.0Atm) = 30.7L F₂ @ STP
2. Calculate moles of F₂ used
=> moles F₂ = 30.7L/22.4L/mole = 1.372 mole F₂ used
3. Calculate moles of XeF₆ produced from reaction ratios …
Xe + 3F₂ => XeF₆ => moles of XeF₆ = ⅓(moles F₂) = ⅓(1.372) moles XeF₆ = 0.4572 mole XeF₆
4. Calculate number molecules XeF₆ by multiplying by Avogadro’s Number (6.02 x 10²³ molecules/mole)
=> #Molecules XeF₆ = 0.4572mole(6.02 x 10²³ molecules/mole)
= 2.75 x 10²³ molecules XeF₆.
<span>The smallest unit of a compound is called a molecule. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option or the penultimate option or option "B". The other choices are incorrrect and can be negated. I hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your desired help.</span>
PV = nRT. Where P = pressure, V = volume, n = number of moles, R = universal gas constant and T = temperature. Hope this helps!
The shape of the molecule is trigonal planar.
