The correct answer is b. bimolecular
Answer:
Start with the number of grams of each element, given in the problem. the mass of each element = the percent given. Convert the mass of each element to moles using the molar mass from the periodic table. Divide each mole value by the smallest number of moles calculated.
Knowing the ratio between atoms we can write an empirical formula:
<span>C4H6O </span>
<span>we compute the molar mass of this single formula: </span>
<span>4x12 + 6 x 1 + 16 x1 = 70 g / mol </span>
<span>Now, as we know the actual molar mas being 280 g/mol, we divide this number by 70 and we get the ratio between empirical formula and molecular actual formula: </span>
<span>280 / 70 = 4 </span>
<span>This means that actual molecular formula is: </span>
<span>(C4H6O)4 or </span>
<span>C16H24O4 </span>

got it right on the test :)
Ionic or electrovalent compounds support the theory of ionic bonding because they are compounds composed of charged particles formed when an atom gains or loses electrons.
Electrovalent compounds posses:
- High boiling and melting points.
- Form crystals.
<h3>What is ionic bonding?</h3>
This is the transfer of valence electrons from metals to non metals to form ionic compounds. It also refers to a chemical bond formed between two ions with opposite charges.
