1. The empirical formula of an organic compound containing carbon and hydrogen is
CH2. The mass of one litre of this organic gas is exactly equal to that of one litre of
N2. Then, what is the molecular formula of the organic gas?
2. The hydrogen atom has only one electron, so mutual repulsion between
electrons is absent. However, in multielectron atoms mutual repulsion between
the electrons is significant. How does thi
thiss affect the energy of an electron in
the orbitals of the same principal quantum number in multielectron atoms?
