Answer: PCl₃O
Explanation:
1) The chemical formula tells the composition of a compound in terms of the ratio of number of atoms of each element that consitutes such compound.
2) You use the chemical symbol for each kind of atom (element) and subscripts to the right of each symbol to tell the number of atoms of each element.
3) For example, O₂ means two atoms of oxygen. Al₂O₃ means two atoms of aluminum and 3 atoms of oxygen.
4) Therefore, PCl₃O means a ratio 1 : 3 : 1 for phosphorus, chlorine, and oxygen.
Hence, PCl₃O is the chemical formula of your compound.
Answer: Most of them lie in a belt between Earth and Mars.
Explanation:
Asteroids are small rocky bodies having irregular shape size which orbit sun. Majority of the asteroids are found in a belt between orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Scientists presume that these asteroids are remains of a planet that never formed between Mars and Jupiter due to great gravitational pull of the largest planet of the solar -system - Jupiter.
Thus, the incorrect description of the asteroids is: Most of them lie in a belt between Earth and Mars.
Answer:
3 moles
Explanation:
To solve this problem we will use the Avogadro numbers.
The number 6.022×10²³ is called Avogadro number and it is the number of atoms, ions or molecules in one mole of substance. According to this,
1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022×10²³ atoms.
18 g water = 1 mole = 6.022×10²³ molecules
we are given 36 g of C-12. So,
12 g of C-12 = 1 mole
24 g of C-12 = 2 mole
36 g of C-12 = 3 mole
So 3 moles of C-12 equals to the number of particles in 36 g of C-12.
