P4 is White Phosphorus. It has a tetrahedral structure, is soft and waxy, and is insoluble in water. A glow occurs as a result of vapors being oxidized by the air. It's so thermodynamically unstable that it combusts in air. It was actually even used in fireworks in the past and the United States military still uses it in incendiary bombs.
What else can I help you with?
How many moles of PCl5 can be produced from 24 grams of P4?
Assuming that you are combining the P4 with Cl2 and there is a suffiecient quantity of Cl2 for the P4 to completely react, you will first need a balanced equation which is P4 + 10Cl2 -> 4PCl5. From there, it's mostly stoichiometry. Take the 24g of P4, divide by the molar mass (123.88g/mol) to get the number of moles of P4 that you have (0.194). You then have to convert, using the balanced equation, from moles of P4 to moles of PCl5, in this case multiplying by 4. That will give you the number of moles of PCl5. The stoichiometry should look something like this 24.0 g P4 x (1 mol P4/123.88g P4) x (4 mol PCl5/1 mol P4).
Write a balanced chemical equation for the synthesis of liquid phosphorus trichloride from white phosphorus and chlorine gas3?
P4 (s) + 6Cl2 (g) -> 4PCl3 (l)
Which has the greater number of atoms 1 molecule of Cl2 or 1 molecule of P4?
P4. It has 4 atoms compared to Cl2 having 2
What is the oxidation number of P4?
The oxidation number of P in P4 is 0. Each phosphorus atom in P4 shares electrons equally with the other phosphorus atoms, resulting in a net charge of 0 for each phosphorus atom.
What is the chemical formula for triphosphorus hexoxide?
The molecular formula of tetraphosphorous hexaoxide is P4O6. It's components are phosphorous (P) and oxygen (O) with a weight of 219.89 grams/mole.
What is the chemical formula for red phosphorus?
The chemical formula for red phosphorus is P4.
What is the Chemical formula of Phosphorus?
Formula: P4
What is the chemical formula for phosporus?
Phosphorus may rarely be seen as P, but it will usually be seen as white or red phosphorus, both of which are P4. White P4 is a tetrahedral structure. Red P4 is a chain-like structure, where one of the bonds from white P4 is broken and joined with a neighboring P4.
What is the chemical formula for tetra-phosphorus?
Formula: P4
Is P4 the chemical formula of phosphorous?
P is the chemical symbol for phosphorus. But you are correct in believing that the two most comman allotropes of phosphorus (red and white phosphorus) exist as P4. a tetrahedral arrangement of 4 phosphorus atoms. Another alloptrope is P2- Diphosphorus, which is highly reactive.
