Why reaction between phosphorus and oxygen produces four atoms of phosphorus and five atoms of oxygen
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Reaction between an oxygen and  a phosphorus will produce oxides of phosphorus.

Explanation:

Reaction between oxygen and phosphorus produces four atoms of phosphorus with five atoms of oxygen. Sometimes it produces two atoms of phosphorus and five atoms of oxygen and sometimes four atoms of phosphorus and six atoms of oxygen. It does so depending upon the availability of oxygen. The size of phosphorus atom  interferes with the ability to form a double bonds to the other elements, such as nitrogen, oxygen, etc.

NH3 + HCI —> NH4CI synthesis O decomposition O single replacement O double replacement​
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

synthesis

Explanation:

The reaction given is a synthesis reaction or combination reaction.

Given equation:

                        NH₃  +  HCl   →   NH₄Cl

In a synthesis reaction, a single product is formed from two or more reactants

                          A + B →  C

The formation of compounds from the union of constituent elements also falls into this category.

So the given reaction is a synthesis reaction.

In a decomposition reaction two or more products are formed from a single reactant

In a single replacement reaction, one substance replaces another.

In double replacement reactions partners in a chemical specie are exchanged.

Therefore the given reaction is a synthesis reaction

What is a single celled organism able to do? survive on its own make tissues grow to large sizes differentiate
bekas [8.4K]

Within multicellular organisms, tissues are organized communities of cells that work together to carry out a specific function. The exact role of a tissue in an organism depends on what types of cells it contains. For example, the endothelial tissue that lines the human gastrointestinal tract consists of several cell types. Some of these cells absorb nutrients from the digestive contents, whereas others (called goblet cells) secrete a lubricating mucus that helps the contents travel smoothly.

However, the multiple cell types within a tissue don't just have different functions. They also have different transcriptional programs and may well divide at different rates. Proper regulation of these rates is essential to tissue maintenance and repair. The spatial organization of the cells that form a tissue is also central to the tissue's function and survival. This organization depends in part on polarity, or the orientation of particular cells in their place. Of course, external signals from neighboring cells or from the extracellular matrix are also important influences on the arrangement of cells in a tissue.
