For a reaction involving sodium hydroxide and phosphoric acid, the balanced equation of reaction is:
Answer:
Explanation:
Question 1:
atomic number/number of protons
All atoms of the same element share the same number of protons or atomic numbers. In grouping elements on the periodic table, the periodic law is often used. The modern periodic law states that "properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic number". The atomic number of an element distinguish it from others.
Question 2:
The two carbon atoms would be quite different as they are isotopes. Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences in the number of neutrons in their various nuclei.
Naturally, carbon exists in two isotopic forms:
¹³₆C and ¹⁴₆C
One might see these different samples in a rock and in the skin cells. They are simply isotopes. Isotopes have the same electronic configuration and hence similar chemical properties. Only their masses differ.
Reactions like this one absorb energy because the reactants have less potential energy than the products.
<h3>What is an Endothermic reaction?</h3>
This is the type of reaction in which the reactants absorb heat energy from the surroundings to form products.
This brings about a decrease in the temperature as a result of the reactants having less potential energy than the products thereby making option B the most appropriate choice.

Moles = mass / molar mass
<span>moles P = 0.422 g / 30.97 g/mol = 0.01363 mol </span>
<span>moles O = (0.967 g - 0.422g) / 16.00 g/mol = 0.03406 moles </span>
<span>So ratio moles P : moles O </span>
<span>= 0.01363 mol : 0.03406 mol </span>
<span>Divide each number in the ratio by the smallest number </span>
<span>(0.01363 / 0.01363) : (0.03406 / 0.01363) </span>
<span>= 1 : 2.5 </span>
<span>The empirical formula needs to be the smallest whole number ratio of atoms in the molecules. Since you have a non-whole number, multiply the ratio by the smallest number needed to make both number whole numbers. In this case x 2 </span>
<span>2 x (1 : 2.5) </span>
<span>= 2 : 5 </span>
