How many electrons does a phosphorus atom need to achieve a noble gas configuration

Chemistry
1 answer:
prisoha [69]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to have a full shell it needs eight. It is easier to gain three electrons instead of losing five. Therefore phosphorus tends towards P3−

What is the formula for this ionic crystal?
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Al₄O₅

Explanation:

    The key at the bottom tells us the blue spheres are oxygen atoms and the red spheres are aluminum atoms. By counting, there are 4 aluminum atoms and 5 oxygen atoms. Therefore, the formula is Al₄O₅.

A human lung at maximum capacity has a volume of 3.0 liters. If the partial pressure of oxygen in the air is 21.1 kilopascals an
Juliette [100K]

V = maximum capacity of human lung = 3 liter = 3 x 0.001 m³ = 0.003 m³      (Since 1 liter = 0.001 m³)

P = pressure of oxygen = 21.1 kilo pascal = 21.1 x 1000 = 21100 Pa      (since 1 kilo = 1000)

T = temperature of air = 295 K

n = number of moles of oxygen

Using the ideal gas equation

PV = n RT

inserting the above values in the equation

(21100) (0.003) = n (8.314) (295)

n = 0.026 moles

A closed container is filled with oxygen. The pressure in the container is 245 kPa . What is the pressure in millimeters of merc
Zanzabum

Answer:

1837.65 mmHg is the pressure in millimeters of mercury.

Explanation:

The expression for the conversion of Pressure (kPa)  to pressure (mmHg) is shown below as:-

Pressure (kPa) = 7.501 x Pressure (mmHg)

The pressure value given =  245 kPa

It can be expressed in millimeters of mercury as:-

Pressure = 7.501 x 245 mmHg = 1837.65 mmHg

<u>1837.65 mmHg is the pressure in millimeters of mercury.</u>

In an ionic compound, the size of the ions affects the internuclear distance (the distance between the centers of adjacent ions)
Elena L [17]

Answer:

RbI<RbBr<RbCl<RbF

Explanation:

As stated in the question, the latice energy depends on the relative size of the ions. When the action size is constant as in the question, the lattice energy now depends on the relative of the anions. The order of increase in ionic sizes among the halide ions is fluoride<Chloride<Bromide<Iodide. This order of increasing size means that the lattice energy will decrease accordingly as shown in the answer.
