Answer:

The chemical formula of the compound is P_2O_5.

Explanation:

In 1 mole of P_2O_x there are 2 moles of phosphorus atom.

Then 3.3 moles of phosphorus will be in :

\frac{1}{2}\times 3.3 mol=1.65 moles

In 1 mole of P_2O_x there are x moles of oxygen atom.Then 1.65 moles of compound will have :

1.65 mol\times x

Moles of oxygen in 1.65 moles of compound = 8.20 mol

1.65 mol\times x=8.20 mol

x=\frac{8.20 mol}{1.65 mol}=4.9 \approx 5

The chemical formula of the compound is P_2O_5.

Compared to ultraviolet light, an electromagnetic wave that has a higher frequency will also have ________.
Nikitich [7]
  • The answer is shorter wavelength and equal speed.                        

That is, compared to ultraviolet light, an electromagnetic wave that has a higher frequency will also have shorter wavelength and equal speed.

This can be seen by the reaction given below:

 h\times \upsilon =\frac{c}{\lambda }

h= Planck's constant

c=speed of the light

 \upsilon=frquency

{\lambda }=wavelength

So, higher is the frequency, lesser is the volume while speed remains constant as c is speed of light.

Describe a solution and tell if the parts are mixed chemically or physically.
ANTONII [103]
Hey there! Let's get that problem solved! 

First: Let's define, "solution." 

Solution: <span>a liquid mixture in which the minor component (the solute) is uniformly distributed within the major component (the solvent).

Next: Ask yourself, "can a solution be taken apart?" 

In some cases, yes. It can. 

The solution of salt water for example, can be physically separated by evaporation. (place salt-water in a pot on a heated stove, place the cover to the pot on the opening, wait a few minutes, remove the top, and you can (and taste) the water without the salt!)  </span><span />
