Answer:
Explanation:
We are given the percent composition: 22.5% phosphorus and 77.5% chlorine.
We can assume there are 100 grams of this compound. We choose 100 because we can simply use the percentages as the masses.
- 22.5 g P
- 77.5 g Cl
Next, convert these masses to moles, using the molar masses found on the Periodic Table.
- P: 30.974 g/mol
- Cl: 35.45 g/mol
Use the molar masses as ratios and multiply by the number of grams.
Divide both of the moles by the smallest number of moles to find the mole ratio.
The mole ratio is about 1 P: 3 Cl, so the empirical formula is written as:<u> PCl₃</u>
1. According to Rutherford and soddy's law of Beta emission:
3. According to Rutherford and soddy's law of Alpha emission:
4. The process in which two or more light nuclei are combined to form a single nucleus with the release of tremendous amount of energy is called a nuclear fusion. The inner core of Sun is at very high temperature and is suitable for fusion. In fact the source of energy of Sun and other stars is nuclear fusion reactions.
