What is the name of the molecular compound SeO2?
It is called Selenite; as a polyatomic ion, this compound is an exception to standard molecular compound naming rules. NOTE: It has a combined electrostatic charge of 2-
What is the chemical formula of the compound beryllium and fluorine?
The chemical formula for beryllium chlorite is Be(ClO2)2.
What is the name for this chemical compound CH3COONa?
It is the formula for the chemical compound Sodium Ethanoate (the chemical name). It's called Sodium Acetate in everyday terms.
Is P2O3 an ionic or molecular compound?
P2S5 is molecular. The molecular formula is P4S10. It structure is the same as the molecular form of P2O5, which is P4O10. The compound is normally called simply phosphorus pentasulfide, however a more correct name diphosphorus pentasulfide.
The lowest whole number ratio of the elements in a compound is called the?
An empirical formula refers to the chemical formula that indicates the simplest ratio of atoms in a compound. Two different compounds may have the same empirical formula.
Which formula represents an electrolyte?
NH4Cl (it stays together with ionic bonds)
What is the molecular formula of sugar substitute?
Saccharin has a molecular formula of C7H5NO3S. Splenda has the chemical formula of C12H19Cl3O8. It is also called sucralose. Aspartame has the chemical formula of C14H18N2O5.
Why is the chemical symbol of a molecule of a compound also called the chemical formula of the compound?
The chemical formula of a compound states the number and types of atoms in each molecule of a compound.
What does chemical formula of a compound represents?
A chemical formula or molecular formula is a way of expressing information about the atoms that constitute a chemical compound.So this being said, that basically means the chemical formula represents the atoms that are bonded to one another (An atom is classified according to chemical element and isotope more specifically)
What are the sum of atomic masses of all atoms formula for a compound called?
It is called the molar mass of that compound. In other words, the total mass of all of the elements in a compound is equal to one mole of that compound.
What is a compound's smallest unit usually called?
If it is a molecular compound, the smallest unit is called a molecule. If it is an ionic compound, the smallest unit is called a formula unit.
What formula represents the actual number of atoms of each element in a compound?
A formula that gives the ratio of elements in a compound is called an empirical formula. On the other hand, the formula that shows the number of atoms in each element present in a molecule is called a molecular formula.
Symbol compound aluminuim nitrate?
Symbol is used for elements. For compounds it is called molecular formula. The molecular formula for aluminium nitrate is Al(NO3)3.
What is the definition on a combination of symbols that show ratio of elements in a compound?
Its called Chemical formula
What is the name of the molecular compound SeO2?
It is called Selenite; as a polyatomic ion, this compound is an exception to standard molecular compound naming rules. NOTE: It has a combined electrostatic charge of 2-
The smallest particle of an element which enter into chemical combination are called?
An atom is the smallest unit of matter that can enter into a chemical combination.
What are the symbols used for compounds called?
They are called "formulas" (Latin formulae) and show what elements and ions are in the compound. The formula H2O for water shows that a water molecule is made of two atoms of hydrogen and one of oxygen.The symbols representing chemical compounds are called chemical formulas. They can be expressed as an empirical formulawhich shows the simplest ratio of atoms in the compound, or a molecular formula which shows the actual number of each atom in the compound, or as a structural formula which shows the spatial relationship of the atoms.
