Explanation:

Write the formula for each compound.

(a) selenium tetrafluoride. According to the name, this compound has 1 atom of Se and 4 atoms of F. The resulting formula is SeF₄, in which Se has the oxidation number 4+ and F has the oxidation number 1-.

(b) oxygen difluoride. According to the name, this compound has 1 atom of O and 2 atoms of F. The resulting formula is OF₂, in which the oxidation number of O is 2+ and the oxidation number of F is 1-.

(c) dinitrogen monoxide. According to the name, this compound has 2 atoms of N and 1 atom of O. The resulting formula is N₂O, in which the oxidation number of N is 1+ and the oxidation number of O is 2-.

(d) phosphorus trichloride. According to the name, this compound has 1 atom of P and 3 atoms of Cl. The resulting formula is PCl₃, in which the oxidation number of P is 3+ and the oxidation number of Cl is 1-.

1. they vary with a higher number because boiling is way hotter than melting

> b takes place in the gas phase in an isothermal tubular reactor. the feed is one mole of a per one mole of c, an inert. the entering temperature and pressure are 427°c and 10 atm, respectively. the gas constant r = 0.08206 atm · l/mol · k.
