Answer:

   Br

    |

Br-P-Br

    |

   Br

Explanation:

To calculate the valance electrons, look at the periodic table to find the valance electrons for each atom and add them together. P is in column 5A, so it has 5, Br is in column 7A, so it has 7 (multiply by 4 since there are 4 Br atoms to give 28) and there is a 1- charge, so add one more electron. 5+28+1=34, so there are 34 electrons to place. P would be the central atom, so place it in the middle. Place each Br around the P (as shown above) with a a single line connecting it. Each line represents 2 electrons, so 8 total have been place, leaving 26 remaining. Place 6 electrons around each Br (2 on each of the unbonded sides), which leaves 2 electrons remaining. The remaining pair of unbound electrons will be attached to the P between any two Br atoms. Phosphorus doesn't have to follow the octet rule, so it actually ends up with 10 valance electrons.

How does particles of substance behave at its melting point?
ivolga24 [154]

<span>When a substance is heated, its atoms gain energy and begin to vibrate rapidly within the lattice of the substance (the substance expands). As more heating continues, the atoms gain even more energy and move more rapidly until they are able to overcome the force of the bonds, that hold the atoms together in the lattice, until the structure is disrupted.  </span>

The pressure is recorded as 738 mmHg.Convert this measurement to atmosphere (atm)
garri49 [273]
As we know that 760 mmHg is equal to 1 atm.

So,
If 760 mmHg is equal to   =   1 atm
Then
738 mmHg will be equal to   =   X atm

Solving for X,
                                X   =   (738 mmHg × 1 atm) ÷ 760 mmHg

                                X   =   0.971 atm

Result:
           738 mmHg
is equal to 0.971 atm.
