The reaction given is:
4Ga + P4 ---> 4GaP
The oxidation number of the reactants is zero, because they are pure elements.
The P in compounds may have oxidation states 3- or 5-. Gallium may only have oxidation state 3+.
Then, to be neutral in GaP the oxidation states are 3+ for Ga and 3- for P.
And the transference of electrons can be see in this oxidation - reduction equations:
Ga (0) - 3 e- ----> Ga (3+)
P (0) + 3e- ---> P (3-)
So, for one formula unit, 3 electrons have been transfered from each Ga atom to P atom to form one GaP unit.
Answer: 3 electrons.

Living things are divided into five kingdoms: animal, plant, fungi, protist and monera
Answer:
Döbereiner singled out triads of the elements lithium, sodium and potassium as well as chlorine, bromine and iodine. He noticed that if the three members of a triad were ordered according to their atomic weights, the properties of the middle element fell in between those of the first and third elements.
Explanation:
<span>A chemist adds 155.0ml of a 4.10 X 10^-5 mmol/L of a zinc oxalate (ZnC2O4)solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in micrograms of zinc oxalate the chemist has added to the flask.
1mmol = 10^-3 mol
Therefore 4.10*10^-5mmol = 4.10*10^-8mol
molar mass ZnC2O4 = 65.39+(2*12.011)+(4*15.99) = 153.372g/mol
You have 4.10*10^-8 mol/litre =153.372 * 4.10*10^-8 = 6.29*10^-6 grams / litre (* see below)
But you have 155ml. Mass of ZnC2O4 = 155/1000*6.29*10^-6 g
Mass is = 9.75*10^-7 grams
1µg = 10^-6 g
You then have 9.75*10^-7/10^-6 = 0.975µg ZnC2O4
(*see below) at this point you could have said:
1µg = 10^-6 g therefore you have a solution of 6.29µg per litre,
155ml = 6.29*155/1000 = 0.975µg ZnC2O4</span>
