Grams of Phosphorus = 4.14 grams 
Grams of white compound = 27.8 grams 
Grams of Chlorine would be = 27.8 - 4.14 = 23.66 grams
 Calculating moles which would be grams / molar mass
 Molar mass of P = 30.97 grams / moles; Molar mass of Cl = 35.45 grams / moles
 Moles of Phosphorus = 4.14 grams / 30.97 grams / moles = 0.1337 moles
 Moles of Chlorine = 23.66 grams / 35.45 grams / moles = 0.6674 moles
 Calculating the ratios by dividing with the small entity
 P = 0.1337 moles / 0.1337 moles = 1
 Cl = 0.6674 moles / 0.1337 moles = 5 
So the empirical formula would be PCl5

CO is a primary pollutant.
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

True

Carbon monoxide is a primary pollutant which no odor results from incomplete combustion of fuel. The man sources are gasoline and burning of biomass.

Depending on the source of emission, pollutants can be classified into two groups that is primary and secondary pollutants.

A primary pollutant is emitted in the atmosphere directly from a source. It can be either natural sch as volcanic eruptions, sandstorms or man-made that is due to industrial and vehicle emissions.  Examples of primary pollutants are nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and particulate matter.

Secondary pollutant is due to interactions between primary and secondary pollutants. These can be chemical or physical interactions. Examples are photo-chemical oxidants and secondary particulate matter.

Therefore, carbon monoxide CO is a primary pollutant.

The specific heat of copper metal is 0. 385 J/(g °C). How much energy must be added to a 35. 0-gram sample of copper to change t
Rus_ich [418]

The amount of heat required for changing the temperature of copper has been 606 J. Thus, option B is correct.

Specific heat has been defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance by 1 degree Celsius.

The heat required to raise the temperature has been expressed as:

\rm Heat=mass\;\times\;specific\;heat\;\times\;Change\;in\;temperature

<h3>Computation for the heat energy required</h3>

The given specific heat of copper has been \rm 0.385\;J/g^\circ C

The mass of copper has been, \rm 35\;g

The initial temperature of copper has been, \rm 20^\circ C

The final temperature of copper has been, \rm 65^\circ C

The change in temperature has been, \Delta T

\Delta T=\text{Final\;temperature-Initial\;temperature}\\\Delta T =65^\circ \text C-20^\circ \text C\\\Delta T=45^\circ \text C

Substituting the values for the heat required as:

\rm Heat=35\;g\;\times\;0.385\;J/g^\circ C\;\times\;45^\circ C\\Heat=606\;J

The amount of heat required for changing the temperature of copper has been 606 J. Thus, option B is correct.
