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
Answer:
The temperature to the nearest 0.5°C is 98.5°C
The relative humidity shows us saturation of water in air. Since it is 58% and not 100% we have to scale density that we were given when humidity is 100%.
At 100% humidity, density is 20grams/cubic meter
at 58% it will be:
0.58 * 20 = 11.6 g/m^3
Since the question is to find density, the answer cannot be in %.
Answer is 11.6 g/m^3
Answer:
Ca₃(AsO₃)₂
Explanation:
Sodium arsenite, with the chemical formula Na₃AsO₃, is formed by the cation Na⁺ and the anion AsO₃³⁻. For the molecule to be neutral, 3 cations Na⁺ and 1 anion AsO₃³⁻ are required.
Calcium arsenite would be formed by the cation Ca²⁺ and the anion AsO₃³⁻. For the molecule to be neutral, we require 3 cations Ca²⁺ and 2 anions AsO₃³⁻. The resulting chemical formula is Ca₃(AsO₃)₂.
