- A sample of solid elemental phosphorus that is deep red in color is burned. While the phosphorus is burning, a white smoke is produced that is actually a finely divided solid that is collected. a. Have the molecules of phosphorus been changed by the process of burning? Explain your answer. b. Is the collected white solid a different substance from the phosphorus? Explain you answer. c. In terms of the number of atoms contained, how do you think the size of the molecules of the white solid compares with the size of the molecules of phosphorus? Explain your answer. d. Classify molecules of the collected white solid using the term homotatomic or heteroatomic. Explain your reasoning.arrow_forwardTennessine has two naturally occurring isotopes. Tennessine-293 has an atomic mass of 292.9498 and Tennessine-296 has an atomic mass of 295.9246. Given that the average atomic mass of tennessine is 294.0018, what is the percent abundance of Tennessine-293? (Express as a percentage to two decimal places).arrow_forwardIf 1.00 g of gray zinc powder reacts with 0.49 g of yellow sulfur powder, what is the mass of the zinc sulfide product?arrow_forward
- Assume that the ratio of moles of Cl to moles of Cu are 2.7. If we can represent the formula by CuClx, what is the value for x? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Do NOT include units. So, if you think the formula is CuCl6, you enter the number 6.arrow_forwardIf 1.4% of the mass of the human body is calcium, how many kilograms of calcium are there in a 185-pound man?arrow_forwardIn a 1.196E2 g sample of iron(III) oxide, how many grams of iron are present? Your answer should have the appropriate number of significant figures (use two decimal places in atomic masses). Only give the numeric value of your answer. Don’t include the units.arrow_forward
