Answer:

3

Explanation:

Phosphorous valence is 5. so to get stable electronic configuration it has to gain 3 more electrons to its outer shell

Answer:

3

Explanation:

luckily, every phosphorus atom is looking to gain 3 electrons. It's a perfect match. But something to notice though, look how they have a bond with six electrons. That is called triple bond.

A 50-mL beaker only has a scale that measures 10, 20, 30, and 40 mL. What is the uncertainty associated with the 50 mL beaker.
Juliette [100K]
If the uncertainty of a certain measurement instrument is not given, then it is assumed to be equal to half of the least count of that instrument. In this case, the least count is 10 ml, so half of this is 5 ml. Therefore, the graduated cylinder has an uncertainty of +/- 5 ml

Is 13.0 mv at 25 °c. calculate the concentration of the zn2 (aq) ion at the cathode?
Andrews [41]
Answer: 
 Zn =⇒ Zn+2(0.10) + 2e- (anode)
 Zn+2(?M) + 2e- === Zn(s) (cathode)
 
 Zn + Zn+2(?M) ===⇒ Zn+2(0.10) + Zn 
 E = E^o -0.0592 log Q; in this case E^o is zero. 
 E = - 0.0592 /n logQ where n is the number of electrons transferred, in this
case n = 2 
 23 mV x 1 volt/1000mv = 0.023 Volts 
 0.023 = -0.0592 / 2 log(0.10) / [Zn+2]
 0.023 = -0.0296 { log 0.10 – log [Zn+2] }
 0.023 = -0.0296{ -1 - log[Zn+2] }
 0.023 = +0.0296 + 0.0296log[Zn+2]
 -0.0066 = 0.0296log[Zn+2]
 -0.22= log[Zn+2]
 [Zn+2] = 10^-0.22 = 0.603 Molar

Only 11% of all the energy used in the US comes from a renewable source. Why is this a<br> problem?
mr Goodwill [35]
Fossil fuels and unnatural energy sources still dominate in the US, this influences many problems including global warming, climate change, and pollution. Burning fossil fuels is also a problem to human health. And unnatural resources won’t be there forever whereas, renewable sources could last a long time.
