The ratio of different atoms in a compound important because the compound has to achieve an equilibrium in terms of electrical charge. The net total of charges of the atoms forming a compound must be zero.
This ratio is different for each compound; for the oxide P4O10 the ratio is 2/5.
Two or more different elements that are chemically combined in a definite ratio is a compound. Based on the nature of the bonds, it can be called an ionic compound (i.e. atoms bonded together by ionic bonds) or an molecular compound (i.e. atoms bonded together by covalent bonds).
Two or more atoms chemically combined in a specific ratio are a molecule.
The ratio Na/Cl is 1 in the formula unit.
compound when they are in a fixed ratio.If it is not a fixed ratio it is a mixture
This ratio is different for each compound; for the oxide P4O10 the ratio is 2/5.
Molecule and compound comprises of different atoms. Atoms are combined in fixed ratio.
A chemical formula gives the number ratio of the different kinds of atoms present in the compound. This means that the ratios are the same if you count in individual atoms, dozens of atoms, or molecules of atoms.
3 of the compound
The answer depends on the compound.
This ratio is 2/5.
The chemical formula of the compound shows the ratio of the atoms of elements in a compound. This must not be confused with the ratio of their masses.
Two or more different elements that are chemically combined in a definite ratio is a compound. Based on the nature of the bonds, it can be called an ionic compound (i.e. atoms bonded together by ionic bonds) or an molecular compound (i.e. atoms bonded together by covalent bonds).
A chemical formula shows what elements a compound contains, and the ratio of the atoms or ions of the elements in the compound.
