Answer is: The atomic size of the chlorine ion is larger than the size of the chlorine atom.
Covalent radii of chlorine atom (Cl) is 0.099 nm and ionic radii of chlorine anion (Cl⁻) is 0.181 nm.
Difference between an chlorine atom and chlorine anion is the number of electrons that surround the nucleus.
Chlorine atom has 17 electrons and chlorine anion has 18 electrons.
A. electron, B. Nucleus
Proton is positive charge, electron is negative charge
proton weight, 1 AMU
3.47 x
atoms of gold have mass of 113.44 grams.
Explanation:
Data given:
number of atoms of gold = 3.47 x
mass of the gold in given number of atoms = ?
atomic mass of gold =196.96 grams/mole
Avagadro's number = 6.022 X 
from the relation,
1 mole of element contains 6.022 x
atoms.
so no of moles of gold given = 
0.57 moles of gold.
from the relation:
number of moles = 
rearranging the equation,
mass = number of moles x atomic mass
mass = 0.57 x 196.96
mass = 113.44 grams
thus, 3.47 x
atoms of gold have mass of 113.44 grams

Answer:
D) empirical formula is: C₃P₂O₈
Explanation:
Given:
Mass % Calcium (Ca) = 38.7%
Mass % Phosphorus (P) = 19.9%
Mass % oxygen (O) = 41.2 %
This implies that for a 100 g sample of the unknown compound:
Mass Ca = 38.7 g
Mass P = 19.9 g
Mass O = 41.2 g
Step 1: Calculate the moles of Ca, P, O
Atomic mass Ca = 40.08 g/mol
Atomic mass P = 30.97 g/mol
Atomic mass O = 16.00 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate the molar ratio

Step 3: Calculate the closest whole number ratio
C: P: O = 1.50 : 1.00 : 4.00
C : P : O = 3:2:8
Therefore, the empirical formula is: C₃P₂O₈
