Answer: c.They have a unique set of properties that can be used as identifiers.
Explanation:
Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.
Compounds can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions.
Example: Water
Compounds have different properties than the elements it is made up of.
Thus the most accurate description of compounds is that they have a unique set of properties that can be used as identifiers.
Answer:
Three hydrogen atoms to form PH₃.
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, since the elements belonging to the nitrogen family (N, P, As, Sb and Bi) show five valence electrons, because there are five electrons at their outer shell, it is clear that if phosphorous bonds with hydrogen, it is going to require the same amount of oxygen atoms (3) because elements having five valence electrons need 3 bonds in order to attain the octet (5+3=8).
Therefore the compound would be:
Which is phosphine.
Best regards!
