This is the answer
P > S > Si > Al
Phosphorus is in group 15 and sulfur is in group 16 so the ionization energies is a little bit lower the phosphorus.
In the chemical reaction in which sucrose is heated and decomposes to form carbon dioxide and water a. sucrose is a reactant
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.
It can be disproven by philosophy and religion.
