What is the oxidation number of each phosphorus atom in H4P2O7

Chemistry
1 answer:
nekit [7.7K]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

+5

Explanation:

The oxidation number of phosphorus can be obtained as follows:

H4P2O7 = 0

4(+1) + 2P + 7(—2) = 0

4 + 2P —14 = 0

Collect like terms

2P = 14 — 4

2P = 10

Divide both side by 2

P = 10/2

P = +5

The oxidation number of phosphorus is +5

Why does the solution decolorize on standing after the equivalence point has been reached?
Arisa [49]

The equivalence point of a titration is equal to its stoichiometric equivalents of analyte and titrant.

Depending on the concentration of titrant we could be adding little excess of it and this may result in persistence of color of solution. After continuous stirring for a while the excess titrant may react with dissolved CO₂ in air and thus decolorizing the solution.

What term is used to label the energy levels of electrons?
Natalka [10]
The term that is used to label the energy levels of electrons are principle quantum numbers and a valance band refers to the “energy levels in an atom where the electrons that participate in bonding occupy. These energy levels correspond to those of the s and p orbitals of the outermost shell of the atom being considered.” Hope this helps! :)
