Answer:

Calcium phosphorous

Explanation:

First, this compound is a mixture of the following elements:

Ca: Calcium

P: Phosphor

Now, both of these elements are united as a binary compound, the metal and a non metal. When we have a binary compound with a metal and non metal, (When the non metal is not hydrogen or oxygen) this usually becomes a salt. A bynary salt. So a binary salt, we should name like this

In this, we should name first the metal and then the non metal with the sufije ous. In this case:

Calcium phosphorous.

Then the name of this salt is that.

What property of liquid oxygen makes it especially difficult and potentially harmful to work with at home?
irga5000 [103]
The property of liquid oxygen that makes it especially difficult and potentially harmful to work with at home would be its cryogenic temperature. Liquid oxygen is being produced from the compression of oxygen gas to -196 degrees Celsius. As you can see, it has a very cold temperature that is why it used in cryogenics. Although liquid oxygen is non-toxic to humans, it would cause burns that are severe when being touched. Also, it would make certain materials brittle and unstable. Another property that makes it dangerous for use at home would be that it is very flammable. Proper handling is a must for this substance.
