Assuming complete decomposition of both samples,
First compound:
;
of the first compound would contain
Oxygen and mercury atoms seemingly exist in the first compound at a
ratio; thus the empirical formula for this compound would be
where the subscript "1" is omitted.
Similarly, for the second compound
;
of the first compound would contain
and therefore the empirical formula
.
The element has 83 electrons
The physical properties of alkenes and alkynes are generally similar to those of alkanes or cycloalkanes with equal numbers of carbon atoms. Alkynes have higher boiling points than alkanes or alkenes, because the electric field of an alkyne, with its increased number of weakly held π electrons, is more easily distorted, producing stronger attractive forces between molecules.
