Chemistry

Vikki [24]3 years ago

Answer:

The coefficient for PH3 is 8. Option D is correct.

Explanation:

Step 1: The unbalanced equation

P2H4(g) ⇆ PH3(g) + P4(s)

Step 2: Balancing the equation

P2H4(g) ⇆ PH3(g) + P4(s)

On the left side we have 4x H (in P2H4), on the right side we have 3x H (in PH3). To balance the amount of H on both sides, we have to multiply P2H4 on the left side by 3 and PH3 on the right by 4.

3P2H4(g ) ⇆ 4PH3(g) + P4(s)

On the left side we have 6x P (in 3P2H4) on the right side we have 8x P (4x in 4PH3 and 4x in P4). To balance the amount of P on bot hsides, we have to multiply 3P2H4 by 2 and 4PH3 also by 2. Now the equation is balanced

6P2H4(g ) ⇆ 8PH3(g) + P4(s)

The coefficient for PH3 is 8. Option D is correct.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Explanation:

For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional. Or Boyle's law is a gas law, stating that the pressure and volume of a gas have an inverse relationship. If volume increases, then pressure decreases and vice versa, when the temperature is held constant.

Chemistry what is stoichiometry and the different formulas
USPshnik [31]
Stoichiometry is the relationship between the relative quantities of substances taking part in a reaction or forming a compound, typically a ratio of whole integers. Hoped this helped!!!!. Also if you are trying to look for the formulas it should be online just type in stoichometry formulas.

The smallest ionic radius among the following. <br> Li<br> Mg<br> Na+<br> be+
dimaraw [331]
The correct answer is Be+

That is because it lost a single electron but still has the same number of protons, and thus the effective charge attracting each electron is greater, which in turn makes the radius even smaller

Calculate the number of formula units in 1.87 mol of NH4Cl
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

1.13 x 10²⁴formula units

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of NH₄Cl = 1.87mol

Unknown:

Number of formula units = ?

Solution:

From mole concept;

     1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ formula units

Now;

    1.87 moles of  NH₄Cl   1.87 x 6.02 x 10²³ = 1.13 x 10²⁴formula units
