An isotope is defined as an element that has the same number of protons as the common element but different number of neutrons. In this case, a beryllium atom has a molar weight of 10 amu. Thus, there are 4 protons and 6 neutrons. The nuclear symbol of Be-10 is 4 Be10
It would be: 1s2, 2s2, 2p4
Hey there!
Ca + H₃PO₄ → Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + H₂
Balance PO₄.
1 on the left, 2 on the right. Add a coefficient of 2 in front of H₃PO₄.
Ca + 2H₃PO₄ → Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + H₂
Balance H.
6 on the left, 2 on the right. Add a coefficient of 3 in front of H₂.
Ca + 2H₃PO₄ → Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 3H₂
Balance Ca.
1 on the right, 3 on the right. Add a coefficient of 3 in front of Ca.
3Ca + 2H₃PO₄ → Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 3H₂
Our final balanced equation:
3Ca + 2H₃PO₄ → Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 3H₂
Hope this helps!
Answer: C (Option 3)
Cs < Cl < F
