Options are as follow,

A. P₄O₁₀
B. PCl₅
C. Ca₃(PO₄)₂
<span>D. KH</span>₂PO₃

Answer;
            The correct option is Option-D (KH₂PO₃).

Explanation:
                   Oxidation number of Phosphorous is calculated as,

As the normal oxidation number of K is +1, H is +1 and O is -2 so,

                                       KH₂PO₃  =  0

0 shows that the molecule is neutral. Now puttion values of all elemnts except P,
 
                                  (+1) + (+1)₂ + P + (-2)₃  =  0

                                  +1 + 2 + P - 6  =  0

                                  +3 + P - 6  =  0

                                  +3  + P  =  +6

                                  P  =  +6 - 3

                                  P  =  +3

During the combustion of NH3, there is an increase in the amount of oxygen present, from 5 to 20 moles while the amount of NH3 r
borishaifa [10]

Explanation:

The ratio of NH3 to NO produced will remain constant since NH3 is the limiting reactant.

Here in this reaction for every 4 moles of ammonia and 5 moles of oxygen gas , 4 moles of NO and 6 moles of water are formed.

So when the amount of oxygen gas is increased to 20 moles without changing the amount of ammonia , the amount of NO formed does not increase as ammonia becomes the limiting reactant.

two sides of a triangle have the following measures . Find The range of possible measures for the tird side
crimeas [40]
To find the third side you would use Pythagorean theorem which is a²+b²=c². 

A and B being the 2 legs and C being the hypotenuse.
 
Example: ( sorry for the really odd not really a triangle, triangle...)
  |  \
6|     \  ?                    6²+9²=C²
  |_______              36+81=C²
        9                             117=C²
                               √117=10.8 (rounded) 

if you need to get the leg you just fill in the numbers.
