The balanced chemical equation is :
5P₄ + 36OH → 12HPO₃⁻² (aq) + 8PH₃ (acidic)
Here the oxidation number of P changed from 0 to -3 in PH₃ and increases from 0 to +3 in HPO₃⁻². When P₄ changes to PH₃ reduction reaction is taking place as there is addition of hydrogen and when P₄ changes to HPO₃⁻² oxidation takes place as there is addition of oxygen.
Thus clearly both reduction and oxidation are taking place.
Thus, we can infer that here P₄ is both oxidizing as well as reducing agent.

The experimental control is the standard used as a comparison for the experimental groups.
For example, you may be trying to find out how different types of disinfectants affect bacterial growth. The control group would receive <em>no</em> disinfectant whereas the experimental groups would be the ones on which the disinfectants were tested.
Hope this makes sense!
Answer:
Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹
Explanation:
Sodium is present in group 1.
It is alkali metal.
It has one valence electron.
The atomic number of sodium is 11.
Its atomic mass is 23 amu.
The longhand notation of electronic configuration of sodium can be written as,
Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹
The electronic configuration in shorthand notation( noble gas) would be written as,
Na₁₁ = [Ne] 3s¹
Sodium loses its one valence electron to complete the octet and get stable thus form +1 cation.
It react with halogen and form salt. Such as sodium chloride.
2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl
Answer:
9 protons, 10 neutrons, and 9 electrons.
Explanation:
The particles of the nucleus of an atom of Fluorine-19 is
9 protons, 10 neutrons, and 9 electrons.
The water gets cold because the ice cube is endothermic. Which means it takes in heat. It takes the warmth from the water and melts the ice cube which the ice cube releases coldness which cools down the water.
