When a ion in group 2 forms a ion the ion will most likely have a charge of

Р + 02 = P4O6 balance the equation

sergejj [24]

To balance a chemical equation, both sides should have equal mass, or in other words both sides should have same number of atoms as to follow the conservation of mass rule.

P + O₂ = P₄O₆

LHS:

Number of Phosphorus atoms = 1 atom

Number of Oxygen atoms = 2 atoms

RHS:

Number of Phosphorous atoms = 4 atoms

Number of Oxygen atoms = 6 atoms

Also since P₄O₆ has the most number of atoms we will make the LHS equalize to P₄O₆.

Difference between Phosphorous atoms in LHS to RHS = 3

Since phosphorous is a monatomic we need 3 phosphorous atoms extra

Difference between Oxygen atoms is LHS to RHS = 4

But Oxygen is diatomic, so we need 4/2 = 2 Oxygen molecules

Now lets see if it is balanced

P + 3P + O₂ + 2O₂ -------> P₄O₆

4P + 3O₂ ------> P₄O₆

LHS:

Phosphorous atoms = 4 atoms

Oxygen atoms = 3 × 2 = 6 atoms

RHS:

Phosphorous atoms = 4 atoms

Oxygen atoms = 6 atoms

LHS = RHS

Therefore the balanced equation is 4P + 3O₂ = P₄O₆

The permanent electric dipole moment of the water molecule 1H2O2 is 6.2 * 10-30 C m. What is the maximum possible torque on a wa

stellarik [79]

Answer:

3.1 x 10⁻²¹ Nm

Explanation:

When placed in an external electric filed, an electric dipole experiences a torque. and this torque is represented mathematically with the equation:

torque (τ) = dipole moment vector (P) x electric field vector (E)

τ = P. E . sin θ

where θ is the angle between the water molecule and the electric field, which in this case is 90° (because this is where the torque is maximum)

τ = 6.2x10⁻³⁰Cm . 5.0x10⁸ N/C . sin90

τ = 6.2x10⁻³⁰Cm . 5.0x10⁸ N/C . 1

solve for τ

τ = 3.1 x 10⁻²¹ Nm

the maximum possible torque on the water molecule is therefore 3.1 x 10⁻²¹ Nm

Can light bend around corners to reach an object

Sholpan [36]

Answer: Yes, light can bend around corners. In fact, light always bends around corners to some extent.

Explanation:This is a basic property of light and all other waves. ... The ability of light to bend around corners is also known as "diffraction".

How many miles of O2 can be produced by letting 12.00 miles of KC103 react?

Marat540 [252]

2KClO3 --> 2KClO2 + O2
12 6 (moles)
The ratio of KClO3 and O2 is 2:1. This means 2 moles of KClO3 can create 1 mole of O2. So 12 moles of KClO3 will create 6 moles of O2.

The reaction of pyrrole with bromine forms predominantly __________. View Available Hint(s) The reaction of pyrrole with bromine

xenn [34]

Answer:

a) 2-bromopyrrole

Explanation:

Our options for this questions are:

a) 2-bromopyrrole

b) 2,3-dibromopyrrole

c) N-bromopyrrole

d) 3-bromopyrrole

To understand how the reaction works we have to start with the resonance structures. (Figure 1), on these structures, we will obtain a negative charge on carbon 2 in the pyrrole ring, therefore on this carbon we can generate an attack to an electrophile.

The second step is to check how the mechanism take place. An electrophile is generated by the $Br_2$ and $FeBr_3$ . This electrophile can be attacked by the negative charge on carbon 2 producing the 2-bromopyrrole. (See figure 2).

I hope it helps!
