Want this question answered?
there are five valence electrons in an atom of phosphorus
Aluminium has three valence electrons and phosphorous has five, hence the latter has more.
Five valence electrons. They all exhibit different oxidation numbers too!!!!
Phosphorous has a total of 15 electrons, and of those, 3 of them are valence shell, or bonding electrons. So, 12 electrons are core electrons, and are non-bonding.
Phosphorous has 5 electrons in its valence shell.So, it needs to borrow 3 electrons to attain an octet of electrons. However, this rarely happens as phosphorous forms bonds by covalent bonding in general.
it has 5
there are five valence electrons in an atom of phosphorus
Here are 16 valence electrons: 3 from H, 8 from O and 5 from P.
Aluminium has three valence electrons and phosphorous has five, hence the latter has more.
26 because phosphorous has five valence electrons and flouride has seven times three.
5
Phosphorous has 5 valence electrons. So, you need 3 more to complete it.

Phosphorous (P) actually has a total of 15 electrons, but the 3 electrons referred to in the question are VALENCE electrons, i.e. outermost electrons.

Krypton has 8 valence electrons.
Phosphorous has a total of 15 electrons, and of those, 3 of them are valence shell, or bonding electrons. So, 12 electrons are core electrons, and are non-bonding.
