<span>The correct answer is b. Radon. Oxygen, Hyrdrogen, and Boron, are not radioactivel ike Radon and it regenerates quickly meaning that even though it has a short half-life period, it stays for a long time once released. It also has no taste so it's difficult to notice without proper gear because you can't feel it.</span>

When lithium nitride, Li 3 N ( s ) , is treated with water, H 2 O ( l ) , ammonia, NH 3 ( g ) , is produced. Predict the formula
allochka39001 [22]

Answer : The formula of the gas produced is, PH_3 (phosphine gas)

Explanation :

According to the question, when sodium phosphide is treated with water then it react to give phosphine gas and sodium hydroxide.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

Na_3P(aq)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow PH_3(g)+3NaOH(aq)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction we can say that:

1 mole of sodium phosphide reacts with 3 moles of water to give 1 mole of phosphine gas and 3 moles of sodium hydroxide.

Thus, the formula of the gas produced is, PH_3 (phosphine gas)

What mass of aluminum is needed to produce 0.500 mole of aluminum chloride?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:  " 13.5 g Al " ;

                    →  that is:  "13.5 grams of aluminum."

<u>____________________________</u>

Explanation:

<u>____________________________</u>

<u>Note</u>: What is missing from the question is the "balanced chemical equation" for the "chemical reaction" that contains:

 The reactants:  "aluminum (Al) " ;  and "chlorine (Cl) " ;  and:

 The product:    "aluminum choloride (AlCl₃) " .

____________________________

The "balanced chemical equation" is:

____________________________

        2 Al   +   3 Cl₂   →   2 AlCl₃   ;

_____________________________

<u>Note</u>: The molecular weight of "aluminum (Al)" is:   " 26.98 g /mol " .

____________________________

So:  We call solve using a technique known as:  "dimensional analysis" :

____________________________

  0.500 mol AlCl₃ * (\frac{2mol Al}{2mol AlCl_{3} }) * (\frac{26.98g Al}{1 mol Al}) = ?

____________________________

<u>Note</u>:  The units of "mol AlCl₃" cancel out to "1' ; and:

          The  units of "mol Al" cancel out to "1" ; and we are left with:

____________________________

 " \frac{(0.500 * 2 * 26.98)}{2}   g Al ["grams of aluminum"] ;

____________________________

<u>Note</u>: We can "cancel out the "2's" ; since "2/2 = 1 " ; and we have:

 →  (0.500 * 26.98) g Al ;

    = 13.49 g Al ;

         →  Round to 3 (Three) significant figures;

         →  Since:  "0.500" has 3 (Three) significant figures:

____________________________

   =  13.5 g Al ; that is:  "13.5 grams of aluminum."

____________________________

 Hope this is helpful!  

      Best wishes to you in your academic pursuits—and within the "Brainly" community!

What is the empirical formula for a compound if a sample contains 3.72 g of P and 21.28 g of Cl
fenix001 [56]
M(P)=3.72 g
M(P)=31 g/mol

m(Cl)=21.28 g
M(Cl)=35.5 g/mol

n(P)=m(P)/M(P)
n(P)=3.72/31=0.12 mol

n(Cl)=m(Cl)/M(Cl)
n(Cl)=21.28/35.5=0.60 mol

P : Cl = 0.12 : 0.60 = 1 : 5

PCl₅ - is the empirical formula
