Phosphorus is in group 15 meaning it have 5 valence electrons. This means that it needs 3 more electrons to create a full outer shell. As these three electrons are negatively charged it means that P is a 3- ion (it’s an anion [negatively charged ion])

If a swimming pool contains 2,850 kiloliters (kL) of water, how many gallons (gal) of water does it contain? (1 gal = 3.785 L)
siniylev [52]

we are given

a swimming pool contains 2,850 kiloliters (kL) of water

2,850 kiloliters (kL)=2850000L

we know that

1gal=3.785L

3.785L=1gal

Firstly , we will find for 1L

1L=\frac{1}{3.785}gal

now, we can multiply both sides by 2850000

2850000*1L=2850000*\frac{1}{3.785}gal

2850000L=2850000*\frac{1}{3.785}gal

2850000L=752972.25892gal

so,

a swimming pool contains 752972.25892gal of water...........Answer
