Answer:

oxygen is limiting reactant

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of phosphorus = 25.0 g

Mass of oxygen = 50.0 g

What is limiting reactant ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

P₄   +  5O₂       →      P₄O₁₀

Number of moles of P₄:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 25.0 g/ 123.89 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.20 mol

Number of moles of  O₂:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 50.0 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.56 mol

now we will compare the moles of reactants with product:

        P₄          :            P₄O₁₀

         1           :              1

      0.20       :          0.20

      O₂           :         P₄O₁₀

       5            :         1

     1.56         :        1/5×1.56 = 0.312 mol

Less number of moles of product are formed by the oxygen thus it will act as limiting reactant.

Answer:

It maintains a constant internal temperature.

Explanation:

Our body tries its hardest to maintain a constant internal temperature. This is because if we get to warm or cold it is unhealthy. If your body senses that it is getting to warm or cold it will try to correct itself.

It is likely the neutral atom has 6 protons and 6 electrons; while the negatively charged atom has 7 or more electrons.

The mass of an atom, commonly known as the atomic mass is determined by the number of protons and neutrons as electrons have a very low mass.

This means two atoms can have the same number of protons and neutrons, but a different number of electrons, which would make the atom be charged negatively or positively.

Based on this, if there are two atoms, each with 6 protons but one of these is negatively charged it is because the second atom has 1 or more extra.

Neutral atom:

  • This atom has 6 protons and an unknown number of neutrons located in the nucleus.
  • This atom has 6 electrons that orbit the nucleus.
  • The first energetic level will include 2 electrons while the second energetic level will include the 4 remaining electrons.

Negatively-charged atom:

  • This atom has 6 protons and an unknown number of neutrons located in the nucleus.
  • This atom has 7 or even more electrons that orbit the nucleus.
  • The first energetic level will include 2 electrons while the second energetic level will include up to 8 electrons.
