P₄ + 3O₂ - > 2P₂O₃.

This is an oxidation reaction or an addition reaction or a redox reaction.

Explanation:

Red Phosphorous reacts with limited oxygen in low temperature to form phosphorous trioxide which readily dimerises to form tetraphosphorous hexaoxide. This molecule is actually an anhydride of phosphorous acid, but it's not obtained from the acid itself by dehydration.

This is a type of oxidation reaction, as well as a redox reaction where oxygen is reduced and phosphorous is oxidized. It's also an addition reaction where two reactants produce a single product.

Its balanced by adding 3 before oxygen and 2 before phosphorous trioxide.

Ghella [55]
The location where the mercury level of the barometer would be the lowest is at the very high altitudes of the Earth's atmosphere (about 100 km), since air pressure decreases as altitude increases.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Well according to the Law of Evolution, depending on where the Finch lives and what it eats depends on it's beak size. For example, if a Finch lives on the coast and eats small fruits it will have a short and stubby beak to peck at the fruits, but if the Finch ate crabs it's beak would be long to swoop down and pluck up crabs.

8. Calculate the number of moles of eachsubstance.a. 5.45 x 1026 particles of methane, CH4
Klio2033 [76]

<em>ANSWER</em>

The number of moles of methane is 905.32 moles

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Given information

The number of particles of methane = 5.45 x 10^26 particles

Let x represents the number of moles of methane

To calculate the number of moles, we will be using the below formula

\text{Number of particles = number of moles x Avogadro's constant}

Recall that, the Avogadro's constant is given as

6.02\cdot10^{23}\begin{gathered} 5.45\cdot10^{26}\text{ = x }\cdot\text{ 6.02 }\cdot10^{23} \\ \text{Divide both sides by 6.02 }\cdot10^{23} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{5.45\cdot10^{26}}{6.02\cdot10^{23}} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{5.45}{6.02}\cdot10^{26\text{ - 23}} \\ x\text{ = 0.9053 }\cdot10^3 \\ x\text{ = 905.32 moles} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the number of moles of methane is 905.32 moles
