The reaction given is:
4Ga + P4 ---> 4GaP
The oxidation number of the reactants is zero, because they are pure elements.
The P in compounds may have oxidation states 3- or 5-. Gallium may only have oxidation state 3+.
Then, to be neutral in GaP the oxidation states are 3+ for Ga and 3- for P.
And the transference of electrons can be see in this oxidation - reduction equations:
Ga (0) - 3 e- ----> Ga (3+)
P (0) + 3e- ---> P (3-)
So, for one formula unit, 3 electrons have been transfered from each Ga atom to P atom to form one GaP unit.
Answer: 3 electrons.
Answer:
A weak acid is an acid that partially dissociates into its ions in an aqueous solution or water. In contrast, a strong acid fully dissociates into its ions in water. At the same concentration, weak acids have a higher pH value than strong acids.

Answer:
We are asked to describe the half-life of the radioactive materials.
- Hence the 3rd option is correct
Explanation:
Moles=mass/molar mass
moles × molar mass = mass
0.206 x 119= mass
Mass= 24. 51grams
Answer: 0.0014 atm
Explanation:
Given that,
Original pressure of air (P1) = 1.08 atm
Original volume of air (T1) = 145mL
[Convert 145mL to liters
If 1000mL = 1l
145mL = 145/1000 = 0.145L]
New volume of air (V2) = 111L
New pressure of air (P2) = ?
Since pressure and volume are given while temperature is held constant, apply the formula for Boyle's law
P1V1 = P2V2
1.08 atm x 0.145L = P2 x 111L
0.1566 atm•L = 111L•P2
Divide both sides by 111L
0.1566 atm•L/111L = 111L•P2/111L
0.0014 atm = P2
Thus, the new pressure of air when the volume is decreased to 111 L is 0.0014 atm
