Answer: According to the BBC, the internationally recognized death toll shows that 31 died as an immediate result of Chernobyl. Two workers died at the site of the explosion, another died in hospital soon after due to their injuries and 28 operators and firemen are believed to have died within three months of the accident.
Explanation:
<span>C. compounds that have the same atoms arranged in the same order, but with different three-dimensional orientations.</span>
Since you know the ratio of atoms, you can start to put a formula togeter. The formula might look like:<span>
X<span>H2.67
</span></span>but since atoms can't come in fractional amounts, we have to multiply the formula by some number in order to turn 2.67 into a whole #, while still maintaining the ratio. Multiplying 2.67 by 3 yields 8, so the most likely ratio in the molecule is
X3H8<span>so the ratio of 1:2.67 is still maintained. The mass percent tells you that out of every 100g of compound, 91.26g is element X, so the other 8.74g must be H. Dividing each mass by the number of moles in the formula gets us the molar mass of each element (approximately). DIviding 8.74g by 8 gets 1.09, roughly the molar mass of hydrogen. Dividing 91.26g by 3 gets us 30.4, roughly the molar mass of phosphorus. Element X is most likely phosphorus</span>
Explanation:
chemical formula tells you the specific elements included in the compound and the number of atoms of each. The letters in a chemical formula are the symbols for the specific elements. So for example, H means hydrogen.
