Grams of Phosphorus = 4.14 grams
Grams of white compound = 27.8 grams
Grams of Chlorine would be = 27.8 - 4.14 = 23.66 grams
Calculating moles which would be grams / molar mass
Molar mass of P = 30.97 grams / moles; Molar mass of Cl = 35.45 grams / moles
Moles of Phosphorus = 4.14 grams / 30.97 grams / moles = 0.1337 moles
Moles of Chlorine = 23.66 grams / 35.45 grams / moles = 0.6674 moles
Calculating the ratios by dividing with the small entity
P = 0.1337 moles / 0.1337 moles = 1
Cl = 0.6674 moles / 0.1337 moles = 5
So the empirical formula would be PCl5
Answer:
The atomic number of<span>N<span>157</span></span>
The number of protons is 7
The number of electrons is 7
The number of neutrons is 8
Explanation:
The atomic number of Nitrogen is 7 because Nitrogen has 7 protons.
The seven protons attract 7 electrons in the ground state.
If the atom had fewer or more than 7 protons the atom would not be Nitrogen.
The mass of the atom is the sum of protons and neutron. so
p + n = mass ( protons (p) and neutrons(n) both have an atomic mass of one
7 + n = 15 subtract 7 from both sides
<span>7−7+n=15−7</span>
n = 8
I dont know the answer but i have some explanation for that question.
Since krypton is in the far right row of the periodic table, its outermost shell is full with eight electrons. This is one of the happy elements and has an electron configuration of 2-8-18-8.
i think the answer is d not sure tho tried to help the best i can if not d than it is c sorry bout that
