Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.33PAE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
To explain why we refer to the formula unit rather than to the molecule for an ionic compound.
Concept introduction:
- The chemical formula shows the total atoms present.
- Formula units relate to the “repeated” unit.
- Molecules are typically assigned to covalently bonded species.
