How many atoms of phosphorus are present in a molecule of phosphorus?

Today are known the phosphorus molecules P2 and P4.


Is P4 phosphorus?

Yes, it means there are four phosphorous atoms present.


What is the only element which is a tetratomic molecule?

Phosphorus(P4) is the only element which is a tetratomic molecule.


How many atoms in p4?

In a molecule of tetraphosphorus (Pā‚„), there are four phosphorus atoms. The subscript "4" indicates that there are four individual phosphorus atoms bonded together in this molecular form.


What is the difference between P4 and 4P?

4P means there are 4 separate atoms of phosphorus whiles P4 means there are are 4 atoms in a molecule of phosphorus


Is a molecule of phosphorus triatomic in nature?

Yes, a molecule of phosphorus is typically triatomic, meaning it consists of three phosphorus atoms bonded together. This forms a stable phosphorus molecule known as P3.


What is the formula for tetra phosphorus?

Phosphorus stays in tetra atom form in its elemental state and its formula is P4


What is the atomicity of phosphorus?

The atomicity of phosphorus is 5. This means that in its elemental form, phosphorus exists as a molecule containing 5 phosphorus atoms.


How many atoms are there in the molecule of phospherous P4?

The answer is four. The molecular formula of any element or compund gives you the number of atoms of each element in a molecule. For phosphorus the most common form is P4 . The molecules are tetrahedral with a P atom at each apex.


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.


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 name of the compound P4?

This molecule of phosphorus can be called a tetrahedron of phosphorus.
