Answer:
Decomposition or cracking
Explanation:
In a decomposition or cracking reaction, a single compound produces two or more simpler substances.
It involves the formation of two or more products from a single reactant.
A → B + C
A is the single reactant
B and C are the products
The driving force for such a reaction is the is high positive heat of formation of the compound that is, extreme instability of the compound.
C. CO2, carbon dioxide is a covalent compound,it is not formed from its respective ions,it does not donate or receive electrons to form a compound
I think the correct answer would be the third option. The reason I2 has a higher melting point than F2 is because I2 possesses a more polarizable electron cloud. I2 contains more electrons than F2 which would result to a stronger intermolecular forces. Having stronger intermoleculer forces would mean more energy is needed to break the bonds so a higher melting point would be observed.

Given
6.4 g sample
Required
The empirical formula
Solution
mass C :
= 12/44 x 8.37 g
= 2.28
mass H :
= 2/18 x 2.75 g
= 0.305
mass N = 1.06
mass S :
= 32/64 x 1.23
= 0.615
mass O = 6.4 - (2.28+0.305+1.06+0.615) = 2.14 g
Mol ratio :
= C : H : N : S : O
= 2.28/12 : 0.305/1 : 1.06/14 : 0.615/32 : 2.14/16
= 0.19 : 0.305 : 0.076 : 0.019 : 0.133 divided by 0.019
= 10 : 16 : 4 : 1 : 7
The empirical formula :
C₁₀H₁₆N₄SO₇
