Outline 1 Question E. 25
The question asks for the formula units for KNO3. What does formula units mean? I looked it up and some sources say its the amount of atoms but I’m not entirely sure if someone could shed some light on the subject.

Re: Outline 1 Question E. 25
Hello!
Dr. Lavelle explained formula units as "the smallest unit of any Ionic compound or covalent network solid or metal". I believe this term can be used interchangeably with "molecule". Please correct me if I am wrong, but I saw in a Youtube video that 1 mole = 6.0221 x 10^23 formula units.
Hope this helps!
