Answer from: jesusmojica25

Potassium Nitride is composed of the greatest number of atoms.

Explanation:

find the number of atoms present in each compound we will write down their molecular formulas and then we will add up the number of atoms present in them.

A: Dinitrogen Monoxide:

Chemical formula of Dinitrogen Monoxide is N₂O. Therefore, it contains two atoms of Nitrogen and one atom of oxygen Hence, in total it contains 3 atoms.

B: Sodium Chloride:

Chemical formula of Sodium Chloride is NaCl. Therefore, it contains one atom of Sodium and one atom of Chlorine Hence, in total it contains 2 atoms.

C: Potassium Nitride:

Chemical formula of Dinitrogen Monoxide is K₃N. Therefore, it contains three atoms of Potassium and one atom of Nitrogen Hence, in total it contains 4 atoms.

D: Carbon Dioxide:

Chemical formula of Carbon Dioxide is CO₂. Therefore, it contains one atom of Carbon and two atoms of Oxygen Hence, in total it contains 3 atoms.

Answer from: Quest

the correct answer is b. a strong acid completely dissociates to its ions when dissolved in water. $hbr$ completely dissociates to $h^+$ and $br-$ ions. a is incorrect because $h_2s$ does not fully ionize to $h^+$ and $hs^-$ ions and some remain as the compound $h_2s$ . c and d are incorrect because, $li_2o$ and $libr$ do not fall into the category of bronsted lowry acids. a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor and since both molecules do not have a proton to donate they are not bronsted lowry acids. likewise, if we use the lewis acid definition, they cannot be acids. a lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. both $li_2o$ and $libr$ have a complete octet so can not accept any electrons which disqualifies them as acids.
