We add up all the various atoms:
C: 55
H: 72
Mg: 1
N: 4
O: 5

55 + 72 + 1 + 4 + 5
= 137

The answer is B.

molecular formula is the acutal composition of the components making up the compound

chlorophyll a molecular formula is - C₅₅H₇₂MgN₄O₅

so we have to find how many atoms are in 1 molecule

for this we have to add all the atoms of each element making up this 1 molecule

number of atoms of each element

C - 55

H - 72

Mg - 1

N - 4

O - 5

the sum of all the atoms - 55 + 72 + 1 + 4 + 6 = 138

answer is C ) 138

What ion (cation or anion and charge) do the halogen group (17) form to fulfill the octet
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

option B= anion (-1)

Explanation:

The halogens are present in the P- block of periodic table. There are thirty five elements present in p-block. The halogens are present in group seventeen. Their are seven electrons are present in valance sheet. All halogens require one electron to complete the octet and form anion carry -1 charge.

Halogens include following elements:

Fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine.

The halogens mostly form single bond with the other elements by gaining one electron and -1 charge. These are most reactive non-metals.

Properties of some halogen elements:

Fluorine:

1. It is yellow in color.

2. It is flammable gas.

3. It is highly corrosive.

4. Fluorine has pungent smell.

5. It's reactions with all other elements are vigorous except neon, oxygen, krypton and helium.  

Chlorine:

1. It is greenish-yellow irritating gas.

2. Its melting point is 172.2 K.

3. Its boiling point is 238.6 K.

4. It is disinfectant and can kill the bacteria.

5. It is also used in manufacturing of paper, paints and textile industries.

Iodine:

1. It is present in solid form.

2. It is crystalline in nature.

3. It is very corrosive and has pungent odor.

4. It can not react with oxygen and nitrogen.
