Hybridization of Phosphorus in P4: It exists as molecules made up of four atoms in a tetrahedral structure. The tetrahedral arrangement results... View Article
In P4, all of the atoms bonding are the same. There will be no polarity between in the bonds between the atoms, and thus no polarity in the... View Article
Answer: Phosphorus can form a P4 white phosphorus tetrahedron because it can form three bonds. The most stable allotrope of phosphorus, red... View Article
White phosphorus is the least stable, the most reactive, the most volatile, the least dense, and the most toxic of the allotropes. It gradually... View Article
Answer: White phosphorus reacts very fast with atmospheric oxygen and catches fire so it is dipped in water to prevent it from oxygen gas supply... View Article
It has a body-centered cubic crystal structure, and transforms reversibly into the β form at 195.2 K. The β form is believed to have a hexagonal... View Article
Phosphorus occurs in at least 10 allotropic forms, the most common (and reactive) of which is so-called white (or yellow) phosphorus which looks... View Article
White Phosphorus is the most reactive while black P is the least reactive. The reactivity decreases in the order white P> Red P > Black P... View Article
The structure of black phosphorus is as follows: Atoms are linked together in a puckered sheets like graphite The adjacent layers are held 368... View Article
Alpha black phosphorus is formed when red phosphorus is heated in a sealed tube at 803K. It can be sublimed in air and has opaque monoclinic or... View Article
Black phosphorus is an allotrope of phosphorus consisting of multiple layers with two-dimensional structures. Black phosphorus is the least... View Article
Red phosphorus and white phosphorus can be separated by reacting with caustic alkalies Red phosphorus doesn't react with caustic alkalies... View Article
The properties of red phosphorus are given below: Red phosphorus is a hard It is odourless non poisonous solid insoluble in organic solvents... View Article
Red phosphorus exist as chain of P4 structures linked by covalent together through covalent bond. Which give a polymeric amorphous structure... View Article
