The halogens are five non-metallic elements found in group 17 of the periodic table. The term "halogen" means "salt-former" and compounds containing halogens are called "salts". All halogens have 7 electrons in their outer shells, giving them an oxidation number of -1.
Answer is: hydrogen bonds.
Hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between two polar groups that occurs when a hydrogen atom (H), covalently bound to a highly electronegative atom such as flourine (F), oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) atoms.
According to the principle of base pairing hydrogen bonds could form between adenine and thymine (two hydrogen bonds between this nucleobases) and guanine and cytosine (three hydrogen bonds between this nucleobases).
Adenine and guanine are purine derivatives and thymine and cytosine are pyrimidine derivates.
Answer : 0.8663 Kg of chalcopyrite must be mined to obtained 300 g of pure Cu.
Solution : Given,
Mass of Cu = 300 g
Molar mass of Cu = 63.546 g/mole
Molar mass of
= 183.511 g/mole
- First we have to calculate the moles of Cu.

The moles of Cu = 4.7209 moles
From the given chemical formula,
we conclude that the each mole of compound contain one mole of Cu.
So, The moles of Cu = Moles of
= 4.4209 moles
- Now we have to calculate the mass of
.
Mass of
= Moles of
× Molar mass of
= 4.4209 moles × 183.511 g/mole = 866.337 g
Mass of
= 866.337 g = 0.8663 Kg (1 Kg = 1000 g)
Therefore, 0.8663 Kg of chalcopyrite must be mined to obtained 300 g of pure Cu.

The rule used here is that the algebraic sum of the oxidation numbers of all the atoms a molecule is zero.
Al2O32× ( oxidation number of Al)+3× ( Oxidation number of O ) = 0
2× ( Oxidation number of Al) +3(−2)=0
2× ( oxidation number of Al) +6
∴ Oxidation number of Al =+3
