Tetrahedral with P atoms at the vertices (corners)
Tetrahedral
In an expression p4 is called a term.
Well depending on what p4 is...the answer could be anything.
P4
it means p times 4
Tetrahedral
The molecular formula of white phosphorus is P4, meaning it consists of four phosphorus atoms bonded together.
non-polar covalent
Yes, phosphorus consists of P4 molecules which are arranged in molecular crystals bound by van der Waals forces. Each phosphorus atom is bound to three others in a tetrahedron.
P (That's it.) -------------- This answer was wrong. White phosporus, for example, is P4. For more information , please see the link.
Yes, it means there are four phosphorous atoms present.
No, phosphorus (P4) is a molecular form composed of four phosphorus atoms bonded together. It is not considered an elemental form as phosphorus is typically found in nature as phosphate minerals.
The formula is H3PO4 O | HO-P-OH | OH O HO-P-OH H3PO4 OH
No, P4 is not an ionic compound. P4 refers to phosphorus in its elemental form, which exists as a covalent molecular compound composed of phosphorus atoms bonded covalently to each other. Ionic compounds are composed of ions held together by electrostatic forces.
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.
