Answer:
a simple covalent structure
Explanation:
its has a few non-metal atoms?
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Atomic radius can be defined as a measure of the size (distance) of the atom of a chemical element such as hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen etc, typically from the nucleus to the valence electrons. The atomic radius of a chemical element decreases across the periodic table, typically from alkali metals (group one elements such as hydrogen, lithium and sodium) to noble gases (group eight elements such as argon, helium and neon). Also, the atomic radius of a chemical element increases down each group of the periodic table, typically from top to bottom (column).
<em>Hence, the atomic radius of phosphorus is smaller than the atomic radius of magnesium. Basically, the atomic radius of phosphorus is 98 pm while the atomic radius of magnesium is 145 pm.</em>
Answer:
2H2(g) + O2(g) --------> 2H2O(g). ∆H= -242KJmol-1
Explanation:
A thermochemical equation is a balanced chemical reaction equation that includes the physical states of all reactants and products and the energy change.
As shown above, hydrogen reacted with oxygen in the gas phase to form water, an energy of 242KJ was evolved and we are required to put this in a thermochemical equation using the least coefficients.
Hydrogen reacts with oxygen to form water in the gas phase in a least ratio of 2:1 as shown in the answer.
The term 'energy evolved' in the question means that the reaction is exothermic and energy is evolved. Hence ∆H is negative as shown.

Explanation:
Aluminium sulphate Al₂(SO₄)₃ is a water soluble salt. It dissolving in water in an exothermic process to form an acidic solution. Solid aluminium sulfate could have a corrosive effect on metals, while aluminium sulfate in aqueous form has a pH lower than 7
Due to its acidic nature, aluminium sulfate can be added to garden soil to reduce its pH by forming dilute sulfuric acid, H₂SO₄ and crystals of aluminium hydroxide, Al(OH)₃.
