Answer: P2O5 is the empirical formula.
Explanation: When given percentages you can assume that many grams of each atom are in the compound. Then you divide grams by the molar mass of each element, giving you moles. Once you have moles, divide by the smaller molar amount, which should give you 1 mol of Phosphorus and 2.5 mol of Oxygen. Then multiply by 2 in order for both moles to be a whole number. This gets you 2 and 5.
Answer:
2 electrons
Explanation:
Oxygen has 6 valence electrons and to be stable it needs 8. That means it needs 2 more electrons to have a full octet.
Answer:
Project 3.
Explanation:
Project 3's anticipated cost is 12 to 17 million dollars. It is a <em>lower </em>anticipated cost than Project 2 and Project 4, but <em>higher</em> than Project 1 by one million dollars at maximum cost anticipation. Additionally, the percentage of wildlife to benefit is 70-80%, which is <em>second</em> to the most wildlife to benefit which is Project 4 at 75-80%.
And finally, for community support for Project 3 - the chart lists it as high. This outclasses Project 2 and Project 4, but balances with Project 1. However, Project 1 costs 13 to 16 million dollars and <em>only</em> benefits 15-25% of wildlife.
