Answer: mole
A formula unit represents the simplest ratio of elements in a mole of an ionic compound.
Explanation:
The formula unit, also known as the empirical formula, gives the simplest whole number ratio of the components of the elements in a mole of an ionic compound.
Thus, the formula unit and the molecular formula of a compound can be the same.
For example: Glucose with C6H12O6 will have a formula unit of CH2O. Thus, the simplest ratio of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in glucose is 1:2:1
Answer:
The dissociation equations for NaBr gives Na+ and Br-
The dissociation equations for ZnCl2 gives Zn2+ and 2 Cl-
Explanation:
The following pictures shows that the dissociation of one particle of NaBr produces one particle of Na+ (sodium cation) and one particle of Br- (bromine anion).
The dissociation of one particle of ZnCl2 produces one particle of Zn+2 (Zinc cation) and two particles of Cl- (chlorine anion).
You can do this by dividing by the molar mass of Zn:
