Statement The atomic weight of an element is given by Dulong Petit's law: `at.wt.xxsp.` heat (cal`//`mole) cong6.4.
Explanation The formula is valid for metals only and not for all elements.

A

`S` is correct but `E` is wrong.

B

`S` is wrong but `E` is wrong.

C

Both `S` and `E` are correct and `E` is correct explanation of `S`.

D

Both `S` and `E` are correct but `E` is not correct explanation of `S.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Dulong Petit's law is valid for metals only. Also it is `at.wt.xxsp`. Heat `(cal//g) cong 6.4`

  • Empirical formula is the simplest formula of the compound which gives the atomic ratio of various elements present in one molecule of the compound. However, the molecular formula of the compound gives the number of atoms of various elements present in one molecule of the compound. Molecular formula=(Empirical formula) xxn n=("Molecular mass")/("Empirical formula mass") A compound may have same empirical and molecular formulae Both these formulae are calculated by using percentage composition of constituent elements. Two metallic oxides contain 27.6% and 30% oxygen respectively. if the formulae of first oxide is M_(3)O_(4) , that of second will be:
