Question

find the atomicity of the following compound (a)c12h22o11 (b)c6h12o6 (c)al2(so4)3 (d)ca(oh)2 (e) alcl3

Answer 1

a. 45
b. 24
c. 17
d. 5
e 4

Answer 2

The atomicity of any compound is defined as the total number of atoms present in the compound.

• In C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁, the total number of atoms is 45, so the atomicity of the compound is 45.
• In C₆H₁₂O₆, the total number of atoms is 24, so the atomicity of the compound is 24.
• In Al₂(SO₄)₃, the total number of atoms is 17, so the atomicity of the compound is 17.
• In Ca(OH)₂, the total number of atoms is 5, so the atomicity of the compound is 5.

• In AlCl₃, the total number of atoms is 4, so the atomicity of the compound is 4.
