...a metal atom will *lose* electrons to form a *positive* cation and a nonmetal atom will *accept* electrons to form an *negative* anion.
Answer:
CH2O
Explanation:
Firstly, we need to convert the masses of the elements to percentage compositions. This can be done by placing the mass of each element over the total mass multiplied by 100% . We can start with carbon.
C = 5.692/14.229 * 100 = 40%
O = 7.582/14.229 * 100 = 53.29%
H = 0.955/14.229 * 100 = 6.71%
We then proceed to divide each percentage composition by their atomic mass of 12, 16 and 1 respectively.
C = 40/12 = 3.333
O = 53.29/16 = 3.33
H = 6.71/2 = 6.71
Dividing by the smaller value which is 3.33
C = 3.33/3.33 = 1
O = 3.33/3.33= 1
H = 6.71/3.33 = 2
The empirical formula of the compound ribose is CH2O
Answer:
only chlorine can expand its octet.
Explanation:
An atom can expand its octet is it has empty d orbital
the electronic configuration of given elements will be:
B : 1s2 2s2 2p1 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]
O :1s2 2s2 2p4 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]
F : 1s2 2s2 2p5 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]
Cl :1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5 3d0 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]
Out of given elements only chlorine has empty d orbitals in its valence shell
Thus only chlorine can expand its octet.
