How many oxygen atoms are contained in 2.74 g of Al2(SO4)3?

5.79 × 10^23 Oxygen atoms

Explanation:

Number of Oxygen atom in the compound = 4×3 = 12

Molar mass of Al2(SO4)3 = 342 g/mol.

No of mole = mass/molar mass = 2.74/342 = 8.01×10^-03 mole

2.74g of Al2(SO4)3 × 1 mole of Al2 (SO4)3 / 342g of Al2 (SO4)3 * 12 mole of Oxygen/ 1mole of Al(SO4)3 * 6.02×10^23 Oxygen atom/ 1 mole of Oxygen

= 5.79×10^23 Oxygen atoms

hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain only hydrogens and carbons. they can be saturated (those which contain only carbon-carbon single bonds) or unsaturated (those which contain carbon-carbon double or triple bonds) in nature. hydrocarbons can undergo several reactions like substitution, elimination etc.  

on substituting one or more hydrogen atoms in hydrocarbon it results in the formation of haloalkane. as the halogen atoms are large compared to the carbon and hydrogen atoms, due to which the molecular weight increases and the bond become polar because of presence electronegative halogen atom and results in the increase in boiling point of the haloalkane.

thus, the correct option is (b) that is the boiling point of the new compound increases on substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon.
