<span>PBr5 You started with 0.72 mg of phosphorus and ended up with 10.01 mg of its bromide. So the amount of bromine is 10.01 - 0.72 = 9.29 mg Now you need to determine the relative number of atoms of each element used. atomic mass of phosphorus = 30.973762 atomic mass of bromine = 79.904 relative atoms of phosphorus = 0.72 / 30.973762 = 0.023245 relative atoms of bromine = 9.29 / 79.904 = 0.116265 Now you need to look for a simple ratio of integers that closely approximates 0.023245 / 0.116265. First we'll divide the larger by the smaller. 0.116265 / 0.023245 = 5.001597 Given how close the value comes to 5. The empirical formula will be PBr5. So for every atom of phosphorus, you need 5 atoms of bromine.</span>

The balanced equation for the generation of sugar from sunlight water and co2 is
asambeis [7]

The balanced equation for the generation of sugar from sunlight water and CO₂ is

6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂

carbon dioxide + water → sugar + oxygen

<span>The process of photosynthesis occurs when the chlorophyll present in the leaves of plants absorb sunlight to make food in the presence of carbon dioxide (enters through the stomata of leaves) and water (absorbed from the roots). As a result of this reaction sugar and oxygen is formed. After that sugar is converted in to starch and oxygen is released into air.</span>
