The question is already answered.
Answer:
Dichloromethane
Explanation:
As we know the atomic number given belongs to following elements, i.e.
Atomic # Element M.Mass
1 Hydrogen 1 g.mol⁻¹
6 Carbon 12 g.mol⁻¹
17 Chlorine 35.5 g.mol⁻¹
Also the molecular formula of Dichloromethane is,
= CH₂Cl₂
Putting molar masses of each element,
= (12)₁ + (1)₂ + (35.5)₂
= 12 + 2 + 71
= 85 g.mol⁺¹
Result:
Hence the only possible structure containing 5 atoms is Dichloromethane.
It depends on what unit/subject you're looking at.
Because in physics, I know that if you are considering Newton's theory of particles, all particles technically go in a straight line from the original direction. BUT, if you're looking at the Wave of the Particle theory, then you would assume that particles do not necessarily follow the above b/c they follow the properties of a wave...
