Solution:
Given in the question
We need to a 6 element symbol, symbols are C,O,H,B,S and F
We need to use all without repetition
So number of possible ways compounds are there can be calculated
as
No. of ways, First symbol out of 6 can be choose = 6C1 = 6
No. of ways, second symbol out of 5 can be choose without
repetition = 5
No. of ways, third symbol out of 5 can be choose without repetition
= 4
No. of ways, fourth symbol out of 3 can be choose without
repetition = 4
No. of ways, fifth symbol out of 2 can be choose without repetition
= 2
No. of ways, sixth symbol out of 1 can be choose without repetition
= 1
So total number of possible comounds = 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 =
720
So there are total720 ways to make possible compounds are
there.
