Molybdenum v phosphate formula

Chemistry

Ira Lisetskai [31]3 years ago

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical formula of the given compound is Mo_3(PO_4)_5

<u>Explanation:</u>

Molybdenum (V) phosphate is formed by the combination of molybdenum atoms and phosphate ions. This compound is ionic compound because electrons get transferred from one atom to another atom.

Molybdenum is the 42th element of the periodic table. It is a metal and it looses its electrons. The electronic configuration for this element is [Kr]4d^55s^1

This element will loose 5 electrons and forms Mo^{5+} ion.

Phosphate ion is a polyatomic ion having chemical formula of PO_4^{3-}

By criss-cross method, the oxidation state of the ions gets exchanged and they form the subscripts of the other ions. This results in the formation of a neutral compound.

So, the chemical formula for molybdenum (V) phosphate is Mo_3(PO_4)_5

Which, if any, of these mirrors can produce a real image?
sergij07 [2.7K]
Real and virtual images.<span> In a dark room one can form an image of a candle flame on a white screen by letting the rays from the candle pass through a small opening. See Fig. 1. This idea is used in the pinhole camera. The pinhole camera is simply a light-proof box with a tiny pinhole in the front and photographic film stretched across the rear wall. See Fig. 2. One uncovers the pinhole for a minute or so, then covers it back up, to take a picture. If it is held steady, it can take a good picture. If one replaces the pinhole with a lens, the intensity of the incident light is increased and a sharp image can be recorded in a fraction of a second. The image formed by a pinhole or a lens is formed by incident rays of light on a surface and stands in contrast to another kind of image — the kind of image formed by a mirror. The image formed by a mirror is not real, it is an illusion formed by the way the light reflects off the mirror. The image seen in a mirror looks three dimensional and real but we know there is nothing where the image appears to be. An image such as that formed by a pinhole or lens is called a </span>real image<span>. An image such as that formed by a mirror is called a </span>virtual<span> image</span>

Which of the following numbers will produce the same number when rounded to two significant figures? (2.3)
prohojiy [21]
2.10

The 0 after 1 is not significant and does not affect the value of the number; therefore, when the number will be rounded to two significant figures, it will become 2.1, so it will be the same.
