Answer:
The Sun and the planets were born from a cloud of gas and dust called the solar nebula 4.6 billion years ago. The collapse of the solar nebula was most likely triggered by a shock wave from a nearby supernova explosion. The Sun formed in the center, with the planets surrounding it in a thin disk.
Explanation:
To find the empirical formula you would first need to find the moles of each element:
58.8g/ 12.0g = 4.9 mol C
9.9g/ 1.0g = 9.9 mol H
31.4g/ 16.0g = 1.96 O
Then you divide by the smallest number of moles of each:
4.9/1.96 = 2.5
9.9/1.96 = 6
1.96/1.96 = 1
Since there is 2.5, you find the least number that makes each moles a whole number which is 2.
So the empirical formula is C5H12O2.
I would have to say it would be the closest to a gas A.
Number of proton K=19
so, 42 - 19 =23
then the answer in 19 protons and 23 neutrons
