Question

Define atomicity. Write the atomicity for sulphur and phosphorus

Answer 1

Atomicity is the no. of atoms of an element present in one molecule of that element.
1) sulphur= 8
2) Phosphorous = 4

Answer 2

Hi friend
-------------
Your answer
-------------------

ATOMICITY
------------------

IN SIMPLE WORDS, ATOMICITY IS THE NUMBER OF ATOMS CONSTITUTING A MOLECULE.

SUPPOSE IN A MOLECULE OF AN ELEMENT, THERE ARE 2 ATOMS,
SO, ITS ATOMICITY WILL BE 2.

SIMILARLY, IT DEPENDS ON THE NUMBER OF ATOMS.

NOW,
---------

ATOMICITY OF SULPHUR
--------------------------------------

NUMBER OF ATOMS IN ONE MOLECULE OF SULPHUR = 8. [ BECAUSE SULPHUR = S8]

ATOMICITY = 8

ATOMICITY OF PHOSPHORUS
----------------------------------------------

NUMBER OF ATOMS IN ONE MOLECULE OF PHOSPHORUS = 4 [ BECAUSE PHOSPHORUS = P4 ]

ATOMICITY = 4
