Question
Chapter 2, Problem 34P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The fraction or multiple of the mass of a fluorine atom is the mass of a nitrogen atom in a given molecule should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Dalton’s atomic theory postulates that elements are formed of very small particles called atoms which are identical for an element in case of mass, size and other properties. It also states that atoms can neither be destroyed nor created. Also, the atoms of different elements join in simple whole-number ratios to make chemical compounds.
Correct answer:
The ratio of the mass of 1 fluorine to 1 nitrogen atom is 19:14 or 19/ 14 that is an option (a).
