Hydrogen bonds are typically stronger than Van der Waals forces bc they are based on permanent dipoles, that form when hydrogen comes in vicinity of a highly electronegative atom (like F, N, or O). These bonds are long-lasting and pretty strong.
Decomposition,because 1 breaks down into 2
CnH2n since the equivalent unsaturation is equal with 1
Cu⇒ 1 atom
N⇒2 atoms
O⇒6 atoms
Total 9 atoms
<h3>Further explanation </h3>
The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound forming elements.
A molecular formula is a formula that shows the number of atomic elements that make up a compound.
<em>(empirical formula) n = molecular formula </em>
Chemical formula : Cu(NO₃)₂
Number of Cu : 1
Number of N : 2
Number of O = 2 x 3 = 6
Total atoms in Cu(NO₃)₂ : 1 + 2 + 6 = 9
