Question: | 3 Phosphorus (P) + 10 Magnesium (Mg) |
Solution: | 3Mg3P2 |
Chemical Equation: | 3P + 10Mg โ 2Mg3P2 |
Explanation: | Phosphorus (P) reacts with magnesium (Mg) to form magnesium phosphide (Mg3P2). This is a classic example of a synthesis reaction where two elements combine to form a compound. ๐งช The reaction occurs when the phosphorus and magnesium are heated together. ๐ฅ The resulting magnesium phosphide is a white solid that is very reactive with water. ๐ง |
