We are given with
136 g P4
excess oxygen
The complete combustion reaction is
P4 + 5O2 => 2P2O5
Converting the amount of P4 to moles
136/123.9 = 1.098 moles
Using stoichiometry
moles P2O5 = 1.098 x 2 = 2.195 moles P2O5
Answer:
Explanation:
Which is more reactive hydrogen or oxygen?
Hydrogen is not particularly reactive. For example, just mixing hydrogen and oxygen gas will not cause a reaction at room temperature, but many metal elements oxidize at least on the surface in air. ... It is combustible because oxygen wants electrons and takes them from hydrogen to form water.
