Hydrogen Compounds and Properties

The document provides information about hydrogen compounds and periodic table concepts: 1) It asks questions about the empirical formula of a hydrogen-carbon compound, the boiling points of hydrogen chloride and hydrogen iodide, the shapes of PH3 and AlH4- molecules, and calculating molecules in a gas sample. 2) It defines atomic number as the number of protons in an atom's nucleus and explains that chlorine is a p-block element while manganese is a d-block transition element in the periodic table.

(d) Calculate the number of molecules in 8.0 cm3 of gaseous phosphine, PH3, at
room temperature and pressure.

(The molar volume of a gas at room temperature and pressure should be taken as 2.4 ×
104 cm3 mol–1. The Avogadro constant is 6.0 × 1023 mol–1.)

2. In the Periodic Table, where elements are arranged by atomic number, chlorine is a p-
block element whereas manganese, a transition element, is in the d-block.

(a) (i) Define the term atomic number.
