Plz choose one of the compounds from the table and explain how you know the numbers of atoms in your formula. is it possible for two different compounds to be made from the exact same two elements? why or why not? with a limited number of elements (less than 120 are known), does this mean we also have a small number of compounds or do we have a large number of compounds in this world?

1) For example, sodium oxide (Na₂O).

One one molecule of sodium oxide has one sodium atome (Na) and two oxygen atoms (O).

The subscript after element shows the number of elements in a molecule.

2) Yes, it possible for two different compounds to be made from the exact same two elements.

This are isomers, same molecular formula, but different arrangements of atoms.

For example, n-butane (C₄H₁₀) and 2-methylpropane (C₄H₁₀).

3) There are large number of compounds in this world, around 40 millions.

d.) the average kinetic energy of the gas particles is greater in container b because its particles move faster.

a rain shadow is a dry region of land on the side that is protected against the prevailing winds of a mountain range. the prevailing winds are the winds that occur most of the time in a particular place of the earth

prevailing winds carry air toward the mountain range. as the air rises up over a mountain range, the air cools, water vapor condenses, and clouds form. on this side of the mountains, called the windward side, precipitation falls in the form of  rain  or snow. this dry air produces a  rain shadow.
