How many structures are possible for a octahedral molecule with a formula of AX5Y?
There's only one. It doesn't matter where you put the Y, you can transform it to any of the other positions by just rotating the molecule, so they're all the same structure. There are two possible structures for AX4Y2, because the Ys can either be next to each other or on opposite sides of the central atom, but for AX5Y there's only one.
Is CCl4 polar or non pollar?
No. The individual bonds are polar, but the molecule as a whole is symmetric and therefore nonpolar.
What is the structural formula of chloroform?
The formula is CHCl3 . The structure is the same as methane's tetrahedral structure , but with three hydrogens substituted for chlorines.
Which best describes an empirical formula?
the lowest whole number ratio of elements in a compound A+
CoCl2 is this a single atom diatomic molecule molecule or a formula unit?
it is a formula unit

How many structures are possible an octahedral molecule with a formula of AX3Y3?
There are two different structures possible in an octahedral molecule with a formula of AX3Y3. The two structures are with each substituent atom in one plane of symmetry according to type, or having 2 in one and the other out.
How many structures are possible for a square planar molecule with a formula of AX3Y?
There are two possible structures for a square planar molecule with a formula of AX3Y. In one structure, the Y atom is in the center and the three X atoms are arranged around it. In the other structure, one of the X atoms is in the center and the Y atom and the other two X atoms are arranged around it.
How many structures are possible for a octahedral molecule with a formula of AX4Y2?
Two are possible. One has the two Y's next to each other, and the other has them on opposite sides of the central atom.
Which structural formula represents a nonpolar molecule?
In the linear configuration, the bond dipoles cancel. Thus, the configurations of molecules with a bond dipole must be tetrahedral and linear respectively.

How many atoms are there in the molecule of phospherous P4?
The answer is four. The molecular formula of any element or compund gives you the number of atoms of each element in a molecule. For phosphorus the most common form is P4 . The molecules are tetrahedral with a P atom at each apex.
Is CCl4 polar or non pollar?
No. The individual bonds are polar, but the molecule as a whole is symmetric and therefore nonpolar.
Does a formula show the ratio elements in a compound?
depends, an Empirical formula will always (by definition) show the ratio in which atoms are combined within a molecule. a molecular formula on the other hand shows the number of atoms of each element in a molecule, the only exceptions being massive structures, crystal latices and where a molecular formula cannot be produced and is either given in the form n*(empirical formula) or just the empirical formula. do note however that reference to a formula of a molecule usually refer to the molecular formula except in the exceptions listed above.
What is Lewis formula?
Lewis structures are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule and the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule. They are also called Lewis dot diagrams, electron dot diagrams, and electron dot structures. See the link below for Lewis structure.
