The value of n in the molecular formula ...

The value of n in the molecular formula `Be_(n)Al_(2)Si_(6)O_(18)` is:

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
3
Since net charge on the neutral molecule is zero therefore for the given molecule `Be_(n)"AII"_(2)Si_(6)O_(18)`
`n(+2)+2(+3)+6(+4)+18(-2)=0`
or 2n+6+24-36=0 or 2n=6
n=3
