which of the following has least number of atoms
Answers
Answer:
Answer:
Which question does you want answered?
Explanation:
Clearly the last option is the most suitable, and most safe:
NaOH(aq)+HNO3(aq)→Na+NO−3(aq)+H2O(l)
The resultant sodium nitrate could be crystallized from solution.
The other options involve addition of sodium to water, or acid, which would not be the safest exercise.
If you want to know which of the following contains LEAST amount of atoms, i.e. out of
2 g Ar; 2 g C; 2⋅LHe, and 2⋅LH2
, we must assume standard conditions of temperature and pressure to assess the gaseous quantities, and we know that the molar volume of a gas is approx.
