B. The element nitrogen is made up only of nitrogen atoms.
Explanation:
Dalton stipulated , in his theory, that all the atoms of pure elements were identical. However different elements had different kinds of atoms that differ in their size and mass. The other stipulations of Dalton's theory were that atoms are the smallest unit of mass and were indivisible – this was later rebutted by advanced atomic theories .
Another major contribution by Dalton's theory is that chemical reactions involved the rearrangement of atoms observing the law of conservation of mass,
Answer:
Molecules that have the same chemical formula (same numbers of each atom) but different three-dimensional shapes are called <u>Stereoisomers</u>.
Explanation:
Stereoisomerism is a phenomenon in which molecules have same molecular formula but have different arrangement of atoms or group of atoms in space. It is further classified as;
i) Geometrical Isomerism:
In this class of isomerism the groups or atoms about the double bond occupies different region in space. It is also called as <em>cis-trans </em>isomerism.
ii) Optical Isomerism:
In this class the molecules having same molecular formula differ in their interaction towards plane polarized light.
Answer:
1 ) Electrovalent compounds are formed by the complete transfer of electrons while covalent compounds are formed by sharing of electrons between 2 atoms.
2) Electrovalent compounds are more soluble in polar solvents like water while covalent compounds are more soluble in non-polar solvents like methane.
