Why reaction between phosphorus and oxygen produces four atoms of phosphorus and five atoms of oxygen

Chemistry
1 answer:
andreev551 [17]3 years ago
4 0

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.

I need help with balancing equations I'm doing homework and idk what to do here can you give me the answers please lol
amm1812

It's pretty easy to balance equations! Basically you want to make sure that the number of each compound is equal on both sides of the arrow.

For example number one is

Fe + H2SO4 -> Fe2(SO4)3 + H2

A 3 in front of H2SO4 because there's a subscript of 3 on the right side.

Then a 3 in front of H2 because of the previous step.

Then add a 2 in front of Fe because of the 2 subscript in Fe2(SO4)3

Then add a 1 in front of Fe2(SO4)3 because you already have an equal number of each element.

<u>2</u>Fe + <u>3</u>H2SO4 -> <u>1</u>Fe2(SO4)3 + <u>3</u>H2

I hope this explanation helps! You should really do your homework because practice is everything when it comes to chemistry. You'll need to know how to do it for exams.

What is the molarity of a 250.0 milliliter aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide that contains 15.5 grams of solute
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

There are a number of ways to express concentration of a solution. This includes molarity. Molarity is expressed as the number of moles of solute per volume of the solution. The concentration of the solution is calculated as follows:

 <span> </span><span>Molarity = 15.5 g NaOH (1 mol NaOH / 40 g NaOH)  / .250 L solution</span>

<span>Molarity = 1.55 M</span>

The table describes how some substances were formed.
gogolik [260]

Answer:

Formed by adding 5 g of sugar to 1 L of water

Explanation:

The substance formed by adding 5 g of suagr to 1 L of water is a mixture.

<em>A mixture is defined as two or more substances that are physically mixed but do not react together. It thus means that the component substances of a mixture can be retrieved through appropriate means of separations.</em>

<u>A mixture of sugar and water can be separated by evaporation. The mixture is heated and the vapor from the boiling water can be condensed to retrieve the water while the residue will give the sugar that was initially dissolved in it. </u>

The products formed from other descriptions in the illustration cannot be separated ordinarily and thus, are not considered to be mixture. The components have been chemically combined together.
