What is the chemical equation for diphosphorus trioxide + water ---> phosphorous acid?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dmitriy789 [7]3 years ago
6 0
Your answer is P_{2}O_{3}+3H_{2}O\rightarrow\ 2H_{3}PO_{3}

but if you are looking for some explanation check description below :)

Diphosphorus trioxide formula is:

P_{2}O_{3}

Di stands from 2 atoms of something, in this case we have 2 atoms of Phosphorus.

Trioxide means that we have 3 atoms of oxygen in this substance that's why we have: P_{2}O_{3}

And water is just H_{2}O

Unbalanced formula is:

P_{2}O_{3}+H_{2}O\rightarrow\ H_{3}PO_{3}

Now we need to balance this equation

On left hand side we have 2 atoms of Phosphorus, on right hand side we have just one atom of Phosphorus, that's why we need to put 2 before H_{3}PO_{3}

Now we need to count all atoms of oxygen and hydrogen and make it equal on both side.

So we need to put 3 on left hand side before water to make this equation balanced.
That's why correct answer is:
P_{2}O_{3}+3H_{2}O\rightarrow\2H_{3}PO_{3}

3. Could a molecule<br> contain only one atom?
Blababa [14]
A molecule is defined as two or more atoms of the same element different element that are bound together. A molecule may be homonuclear, which means, it consists of atoms of one chemical element, as with oxygen (O2); or it may be heteronuclear, a chemical compound composed of more than one element, as with water (H2O).

The melting point of H₂O(s) is 0 °C. Would you expect the melting point of H₂S(s) to be 85 °C, 0 °C or -85 °C.? Justify your cho
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

-85 °C

Explanation:

O and S are in the same group( Group 16). Since S is below O it's atomic mass is higher than O. So molar mass of H2S is higher than H2O. The strength of Vanderwaal Interactions ( London dispersion forces) increases when the molar mass increases. However, only H2O can form H bonds with each other. This is because electronegativity of O is higher than S and therefore H in H2O has a higher partial positive charge than H of H2S.

H bond dominate among these 2 types of forces so the strength of attractions between molecules is higher in H2O than H2S. Therefore more energy should be supplied for H2O to break inter

molecular forces and convert from solid to liquid state than H2S. So mpt of H2O must be higher than that of H2S.

Sucrose will be the most effective. Hence, option D is correct.

<h3>What is sucrose?</h3>

Sucrose is simply the chemical name for sugar, the simple carbohydrate we know and love that is produced naturally in all plants, including fruits, vegetables and even nuts.

When salt or sugar (a solute) is combined with water or ice (a solvent) and is evenly distributed, the freezing point is lowered.

(C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} → C_{12}H_{22}O_{11})

Hence, sucrose will be the most effective.
