<span>Answer: HgNO₃
</span><span />

<span>Explanation:
</span>
<span /><span /><span>
The empirical formula is the formula that shows the ratio of the atoms in its simplest form, this is using the smallest whole numbers.
</span><span />

<span>The empirical formula may or may not be the same molecular formula.
</span><span />

<span>In this case you are given the molecular formula Hg₂(NO₃)₂. Since, the ratio of the atoms of Hg, N, and O is 2: 2: 6, respectively, the same ratio is expressed if you divide by the greatest common factor (GCF).
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>The GCF of 2, 2, and 6 is 2. So, the ratios can be simplified to 1:1:3, meaning 1 mol of Hg, 1 mol of N, and 3 mol of O or HgNO₃.</span>

Between a water molecule and an anion, like Cl-, a _____A_____ occurs between a _____B_____ of the water molecule and the anion.
AVprozaik [17]

Between a water molecule and an anion, like Cl-, a hydrogen bon occurs between hydrogen atom of the water molecule and the anion.

<h3>What is hydrogen bond?</h3>

Hydrogen bond is a weak bond between two molecules resulting from an electrostatic attraction between a proton in one molecule and an electronegative atom in the other. Hydrogen atom in water molecule attract anion due to presence of hydrogen bond.

So we can conclude that hydrogen bond occurs between hydrogen atom of the water molecule and the anion.
