1.39  × 10²³ molecules  of CaCl₂

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of CaCl₂ = 0.23 mol

Number of molecules = ?

Solution:

Avogadro number:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

0.23 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules  / 1mol

1.39  × 10²³ molecules  

a electronegativity decreases beacuse the size of nucleus is bigger.
