The empirical formula for the compound is - P₂O₅
the empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound.
molecular formula is the actual ratio of components in a compound.
we have to first find the number of empirical units in the molecular formula 
molecular mass - 283.89 g/mol
mass of empirical formula - 283.8 g
number of empirical units - 283.89 g/mol / 283.8 g
number of empirical units - 1.000 
therefore empirical formula = molecular formula 
molecular formula - P₂O₅

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Option D. pH= 1.3 strong acid

Explanation:

From the question given:

The hydrogen ion concentration [H+] = 0.05 M

pH = —Log [H+]

pH = —Log 0.05

pH = 1.3

Since the pH lies between 0 and 7, the solution is acidic. Since the pH value is low, the solution is a strong acid

Consider the following reaction: SO2Cl2(g)⇌SO2(g)+Cl2(g) A reaction mixture is made containing an initial [SO2Cl2] of 2.2×10−2M
Andrej [43]
The value of equilibrium constant is equal to the quotient of the products raised to its stoichiometric coefficient over the reaction's reactants raised to its respective stoichiometric coeff. The equation is Kc=[SO2][Cl2]/[SO2Cl2]= [1.3*10^-2][1.3*10^-2]/[2.2*10^-2-<span>1.3*10^-2]=0.0188. The final answer is Kc=0.0188.</span>

What isotope is used for a standard for other atomic masses?
sergeinik [125]
Though the ratio of any two atom's masses was the same on either scale, it was horribly confusing, so in 1961, a compromise was reached. Instead of using either Hydrogen, or Oxygen as the standard, the isotope of Carbon<span> with 6 </span>protons<span> and 6 neutrons in its nucleus (</span>Carbon-12<span>) was given a mass of exactly 12.</span>
