Answer:
Empirical formula is PNCl₂
Explanation:
Percent composition means that 100 g of compound has x g of each element.
In 100 g of compound x, we have 26.73 g of P, 12.09 g of N, 61.18 g of Cl.
So, let's make some rules of three:
In 100 g of compound we have 26.73 g of P, 12.09 g of N, 61.18 g of Cl
In 579.43 g of compound we have:
(579.43 . 26.73) / 100 = 155 g of P
(579.43 . 12.09) / 100 = 70 g of N
(579.43 . 61.18) / 100 = 354 g of Cl
Let's convert the mass of the elements in moles.
155 g of P / 30.97 g/mol = 5 P
70 g / 14 g/mol = 5 N
354 g / 35.45 g/mol = 10 Cl
I’m sorry but could you type the questions out? I can’t really see the question
The process of uranium mining generates what is called uranium tailings. These are the waste by products of uranium mining. Tailings contain the radioactive decay products of the uranium atom and these products are quite radioactive. Radioactive particles found in tailings can emit anywhere from twenty to one hundred times as much radiation as the natural levels at natural uranium deposits. These radioactive byproducts can lead to cancer if exposed.
