True, both of the red and white phosphorus is a pure substance.

Both red and white phosphorus is made of phosphor element but they have a different structure which causes them to have a different color. This phenomenon called allotropes when a chemical element has two or more different form.They are not compounds as they are only made of phosphorus. A compound should be made by at least two different elements.

1. When an ionic bond forms between magnesium (Mg) and bromine (Br), which of the following occurs?
AleksAgata [21]

The correct answers are:

1. B. Mg loses two electrons.

When Mg and Br combine, 2 atoms of Br attaches itself to Mg. The chemical reaction is:

Mg + Br ---> MgBr2

Since Br is more electronegative than Mg, then Mg loses an electron per Br therefore losing 2 electrons.

 

2. D. An atom that gains electrons must be attracted to an atom that loses electrons.

An ionic bond is formed when one molecule is more electronegative than the other molecule which results in gaining and losing of electrons. The more electronegative molecule gains electron while the less electronegative loses electron.

Cuando aumenta la temperatura dentro de un recipiente cerrado que contiene un gas este se expande/comprime por que las partícula
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

expande

forman se alejan

Explanation:

Según las leyes de los gases ideales;

La ley de Charles establece que el volumen de una masa dada de gas ideal es directamente proporcional a su temperatura a la presión simultánea.

Esto significa que cuando se calienta una masa dada de gas ideal, el gas se expande y las moléculas de gas se alejan unas de otras de acuerdo con la ley de Charles.
