P has five electrons, three available to share. Since Cl has seven valence electrons, it can take on one more to accomplish an octet. In PCl3, P’s three valence electrons are evenly distributed among the three chlorine atoms. Whereas, in PCl5 there will be two electrons left over, which is why it is an exception to the octet rule.

The recommended daily allowance (rda of calcium is 1.2 g. calcium carbonate contains 12.0% calcium by mass. how many grams of ca
defon
1) Calcium carbonate contains 40.0% calcium by weight.
M(CaCO₃)=100.1 g/mol
M(Ca)=40.1 g/mol
w(Ca)=40.1/100.1=0.400 (40.0%)!

2) Mass fraction of this is excessive data.

3) The solution is:

m(Ca)=1.2 g

m(CaCO₃)=M(CaCO₃)*m(Ca)/M(Ca)

m(CaCO₃)=100.1g/mol*1.2g/40.1g/mol=3.0 g
