Answer:

The empirical formula of the compound would be A_2Z_3

Explanation:

The A ions are in the body center position and at each corner .

There are 8 faces of the cube and 1 corner is also shared by another 7 cubic unit.

Then number of A ion in a cubic unit = 1+\frac{1}{8}\times 8=2

The Z ions are on each face of the cubic unit :

There are 6 faces of the cube and 1 face is shared by another cubic unit.

Then number of Z ions in a cubic unit = \frac{1}{2}\times 6=3

The structural formula of the cubic lattice is  =A_2Z_3

Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

The empirical formula of the compound would be A_2Z_3

An elimination reaction can best be described as a reaction in which an elimination reaction can best be described as a reaction
tresset_1 [31]
So I’m not 100% sure what you’re asking but I’m going to give it a go. The elimination reaction is a term used in organic chemistry that describes a type of reactions. The name kinda tells you what’s going to happen. Something is going to be removed/eliminated from initial reactant/substrate and as a result, an alkene (double bond containing compound) will form.

In elimination reactions a hydrogen atom is first removed (as a H+) from the beta carbon. As a result, the left behind electrons create a pi bond between the beta carbon and the neighboring alpha carbon. This promotes the electronegative atom, on the alpha carbon, to leaves the substrate taking both electrons from the shared sigma bond with the alpha carbon.

Which molecules are pure elements?
Elenna [48]
Well none since molecules are a group of two or more atoms electrically bonded with one another. However, there are gases that does not naturally bond due to their stability and can be found in nature as pure elements. But these are not considered as molecules.

(By the way, these gases are the noble gases that can be found on the last column of the periodic table)

Answer:

Option C.

Ilegal dumping of waste

Explanation:

This is because non point source of pollution refers to source of pollution that are many and not directly one which is illegal or does not meet the legal term. This type of pollution does not have a point source, it has many sources and this type of pollution is cause by rainfall or precipitation. Where when the rain fall, it wash away the waste through to water bodies, causing pollution and endangering water bodies.
