Hello,
The answer is option C <span>homogeneous mixture.
Reason:
The answer is option C because you can find </span><span>homogeneous mixtures anywhere for example: Vinegar. Its not option A because suspension is usually in elements but as not a mixture. Its not option B because a colloid is a measurement tool that allows to make compounds (mixtures).Its also not option D because those type o mixtures are hard to find in extreme weather conditions.
If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!
Hope this helps!

Grams of Phosphorus = 4.14 grams
Grams of white compound = 27.8 grams
Grams of Chlorine would be = 27.8 - 4.14 = 23.66 grams
Calculating moles which would be grams / molar mass
Molar mass of P = 30.97 grams / moles; Molar mass of Cl = 35.45 grams / moles
Moles of Phosphorus = 4.14 grams / 30.97 grams / moles = 0.1337 moles
Moles of Chlorine = 23.66 grams / 35.45 grams / moles = 0.6674 moles
Calculating the ratios by dividing with the small entity
P = 0.1337 moles / 0.1337 moles = 1
Cl = 0.6674 moles / 0.1337 moles = 5
So the empirical formula would be PCl5
I don't know what the problem is, but here are some rues to help you out:
- All non-zero figures are significant
- When a zero falls between non-zero digits, that zero is significant.
- When a zero falls after a decimal point, that zero is significant.
- When multiplying and dividing significant figures, the answer is limited to the number of sig figs equal to the least number of sig figs in the problem.
- When adding and subtracting, the answer is limited to the number of decimal places in the number with the least number of decimal places.
