Question

true or false
8. The molecules formula of a compound is determined by the valency of the elements

present in the compound.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer

The molecular formula of a compound can be determined by the valency of the elements present in the compound. This is because valency of the element determines the valence electron in turn help in determining the molecular formula. For example: Valency / Valence electrons of Al=3

Valence electrons of 0=2

Therefore, molecular formula of Aluminium oxide =Al

2

O

3

.

Answer 2

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

The molecular formula of a compound can be determined by the valency of the elements present in the compound. This is because valency of the element determines the valence electron in turn help in determining the molecular formula.
