Question

What do you understand by the term atomicity of the molecule of an element?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Hey, here is your answer :-

Basically atomicity is defined as the total number of atoms present in a molecule. For example, each molecule of hydrogen or oxygen is composed of two hydrogen and oxygen atoms. So atomicity of hydrogen and oxygen is 2, as they are diatomic, for triatomic like o3 it would be different 3

I hope it helps.

Answer 2

The term atomicity of the molecule of an element is the total number of atoms present in the molecule.

1. In simple terms, how many atoms are there in a given molecule.
2. Example: in O₂, there are two atoms of the element Oxygen, therefore, the atomicity of oxygen is 2.
3. Similarly, in the case is Ozone, the number of oxygen atoms are 3 and therefore, the atomicity is 3.
