The question requires us to draw the structural formula, provide the name and highlight any functional groups for the compound: diethyl ether.
The molecule diethyl ether can be represented as it follows, with two ethyl groups (-CH2CH3) bonded to a oxygen atom:
Note that the functional group ether (R-O-R) is present in the structre and highlighted in blue in the image. The official name of diethyl ether is ethoxyethane.
Answer : The average atomic mass of chlorine is, 32.37 amu
Explanation :
Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.
Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:
As we are given that,
Mass of isotope 1 = 34.97 amu
Percentage abundance of isotope 1 = 75.77 %
Fractional abundance of isotope 1 = 0.7577
Mass of isotope 2 = 36.97 amu
Percentage abundance of isotope 2 = 24.23 %
Fractional abundance of isotope 2 = 0.2423
Now put all the given values in above formula, we get:
Therefore, the average atomic mass of chlorine is, 32.37 amu

Explanation:
The order of boiling point depends upon the type of interactions present between the molecules.
Potassium fluoride (KF) is an ionic compound and the opposite ions are held together by strong electrostatic forces.
is a covalent compound and the molecules are held together by weak van der Waals' forces.
Formaldehyde is a polar compound due to presence of polar carbonyl group. Hence dipole-dipole force is present between formaldehyde molecules.
Thus the decreasing order of boiling point is:
