If most objects are made up of free space then why can we put our hands through a book or wall?
Mazyrski [523]
I suppose you mean to ask why we can't go through obstacles.

Any atom is surrounded by an electronic cloud. When two atoms get close to each other, the electronic clouds repel each other, preventing them from interpenetrating each other. That same phenomenon, on a larger scale, prevents us from going through matter.

When reacted with elemental chlorine at room temperature, liquid phosphorous trichloride (PCl3) is converted to solid phosphorou
Sergeu [11.5K]

PCl₅ reacts upon contact with water to launch hydrogen chloride and supply phosphorus oxides. the primary hydrolysis product is phosphorus oxychloride     PCl₅ + H₂O ========>  POCl₃ + 2HCl.

Phosphorus trichloride appears as a colorless or slightly yellow fuming liquid with a pungent and irritating odor resembling that of hydrochloric acid. Causes severe burns to skin, eyes and mucous membranes.

Divide the mass of the material through its molar mass. The molar mass of a substance is the mass in grams of 1 mole of that substance. This mass is given via the atomic weight of the chemical unit that makes up that substance in atomic mass units.

One mole is described as the amount of substance containing as many number one entities atoms, molecules, ions, electrons, radicals, and lots of others. As there are atoms in 12 grams of carbon - 12(6. 023×10²³. The mass of one mole of a substance equals to its relative molecular mass expressed in grams.
