What formula represents a linear molecule?
A molecule whose atoms are arranged so that the bond angle between each is 180°; an example is carbon dioxide, CO2.
What is the difference between the composition of a compound having the formula CO with one having the formula CO2?
CO is the chemical formula of carbon monoxide (one atom of oxygen in the molecule). CO2 is the chemical formula of carbon dioxide (two atoms of oxygen in the molecule). They are two different oxides with specific chemical and physical properties.
What is the ratio of atoms in carbon dixide?
A chemical formula shows the elements in the compound and the ratio of atoms. For example, the chemicals formula for carbon dioxide is CO2 . In the carbon dioxide, there are always two oxygen atoms to every one carbon atom.
How many atoms of carbon are in a molecule of CO?
As the formula suggests only 1 carbon atom
Is CO an emperical formula or a molecular formula?
CO is both an empirical formula and a molecular formula.
What is the diagram of a molecule of carbon dioxide?
A molecule of carbon dioxide has the formula CO2, which means that there are one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms in each molecule. Each oxygen atom forms a double bond with the central carbon atom. Its structural formula is O=C=O, and the molecule is linear.
What is the formula for carbon and chlorine?
the chemical formula for carbon is C and for chlorine is Cl.
Skeletal formula ehtane?
The skeletal formula for ethane will show how the six hydrogen atoms share 1 electron with carbon in order to form six carbon-hydrogen covalent bonds. The two carbon atoms, in turn, will each share an electron to form on carbon-carbon covalent bond. This makes up the ethane molecule.
How many atoms r chlorine are in the carbon tetrachloride molecule?
If you know your Classics (Latin), the name gives the clue . 'Tetra' means four(4). So carbon tetrachloride is has four chlorine atoms. Its modern IUPAC name is 'Tetrachlormethane'. It has the formula 'CCl4'.
Is carbon a water molecule?
No, water molecules are made of Hydrogen and Oxygen, there is no Carbon.
A molecule of alkene has the chemical formula C3H4. How many carbon-carbon double bonds are present in the molecule?
there is one
Molecule formula for carbon di oxide?
CO2

What is the smallest part of carbon dioxide?
The smallest particle of carbon dioxide is a carbon dioxide molecule with the formula CO2, which means there are one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms in a molecule of carbon dioxide.
How many atoms of carbon are in a molecule of CO?
As the formula suggests only 1 carbon atom
