Question
Define atomicity of a gas.
Solution
Atomicity of a gas : The number of atoms in a molecule of a gas is called its atomicity.
For example : Monoatomic means a gas molecule containing one atom. Similarly diatomic corresponds to two atoms and triatomic corresponds to three atoms in a molecule of a gas.
