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.

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).
What does Ca reacts with P4 make?
They form calcium phosphide Ca3P2 6Ca + P4 --> 2Ca3P2
Is P4 an ionic compound?
P4 is not a compound, it is an allotrope (form of a pure element) of phosphorus consisting of covalently bonded atoms.
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 chemical name and the chemical formula for boron?
The chemical name is boron and its symbol is B.
What is the chemical formula for red phosphorus?
P4
What is the Chemical formula of Phosphorus?
Formula: P4
What is the chemical formula for tetra-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.
Formula of phosphorus?
The chemical symbol is P It is often used in the form of P4
What is 5 letter word using letters n e v a k?
Venak, kaven (a name), vaken ( a chemical it could be p3 or p4) and a couple others.
What is the compound name of P4 O10?
tetraphosphorus decoxide
What is the chemical formula for Black phosphorus?
Red, yellow and black phosphorus have the same emperical 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.
What is the name of the compound P4?
This molecule of phosphorus can be called a tetrahedron of phosphorus.
What is the name for the covalent compound P4 S5?
Tetro phosphate disulfide
