Li3P it is an unstable solid the Lithium phosphide.
There are 4 atoms - three lithium (Li) atoms and one phosphorus (P) atom.
This compound is the chromium phosphate.
They both have the word COMPOUND :)
Chlorine oxide would be a covalent compound, and not an ionic compound.
Compounds
Yes, Li3P is an ionic compound. It consists of lithium (Li) which is a metal, and phosphorus (P) which is a non-metal. In the compound, lithium loses electrons to form positively charged ions (Li+), while phosphorus gains electrons to form negatively charged ions (P3-).
Li3P is an ionic compound. Li (lithium) is a metal and P (phosphorus) is a nonmetal, so they form an ionic bond where lithium donates electrons to phosphorus to achieve stability.
The chemical formula of lithium phosphide is Li3P.
Li3P is an unstable compound. It would be named lithium phosphide, or if using the prefix notation, it would be called trilithium phosphide.
Li3P Li is in Group 1, meaning it has 1 valence electron and therefore needs to lose one electron to fulfill the octet rule. P is in Group 5, meaning it has 5 valence electrons and needs to gain three to fulfill the octet rule. Three Li atoms "give" one electron each to one P atom.
Lithium phosphide (Li3P) is composed of lithium (Li) and phosphorus (P) elements. It is a binary compound containing these two elements in a 3:1 ratio.
The chemical formula for lithium phosphide is Li3P.
Li3P contains ionic bonds because lithium is a metal cation and phosphorus is a nonmetal anion. PH3, C2H6, and IBr3 contain covalent bonds because the elements involved are nonmetals bonding with each other.
There are 4 atoms - three lithium (Li) atoms and one phosphorus (P) atom.
3 Li + P = Li3P
It is a compound.
