  2. Allotropes of phosphorus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotropes_of_phosphorus

    The lattice structure of violet phosphorus has been obtained by single-crystal x-ray diffraction to be monoclinic with space group of P2/n (13) (a = 9.210, b = 9.128, c = 21.893 Å, β = 97.776°, CSD-1935087). The optical band gap of the violet phosphorus was measured by diffuse reflectance spectroscopy to be around 1.7 eV.

  3. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    Lewis structure of a water molecule. Lewis structures – also called Lewis dot formulas, Lewis dot structures, electron dot structures, or Lewis electron dot structures (LEDs) – are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, as well as the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule.

  4. Phosphorus sesquisulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_sesquisulfide

    Phosphorus sesquisulfide is the inorganic compound with the formula P 4 S 3.It was developed by Henri Sevene and Emile David Cahen in 1898 as part of their invention of friction matches that did not pose the health hazards of white phosphorus.

  5. White phosphorus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_phosphorus

    The β form is believed to have a hexagonal crystal structure. [5] Molten and gaseous white phosphorus also retains the tetrahedral molecules, until 800 °C (1,500 °F; 1,100 K) when it starts decomposing to P 2 molecules. [6] The P 4 molecule in the gas phase has a P-P bond length of r g = 2.1994(3) Å as was determined by gas electron ...

  6. Phosphorus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus

    The structure of P 4 O 6 is like that of P 4 O 10 without the terminal oxide groups. Symmetric phosphorus(III) trithioesters (e.g. P(SMe) 3 ) can be produced from the reaction of white phosphorus and the corresponding disulfide , or phosphorus(III) halides and thiolates .

  7. Tetrahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedral_molecular_geometry

    In a tetrahedral molecular geometry, a central atom is located at the center with four substituents that are located at the corners of a tetrahedron.The bond angles are arccos(− ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠) = 109.4712206...° ≈ 109.5° when all four substituents are the same, as in methane (CH 4) [1] [2] as well as its heavier analogues.

  8. Phosphorus sulfides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_sulfides

    Phosphorus sulfides comprise a family of inorganic compounds containing only phosphorus and sulfur.These compounds have the formula P 4 S n with n ≤ 10. Two are of commercial significance, phosphorus pentasulfide (P 4 S 10), which is made on a kiloton scale for the production of other organosulfur compounds, and phosphorus sesquisulfide (P 4 S 3), used in the production of "strike anywhere ...

  9. Phosphorus pentasulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_pentasulfide

    Its tetrahedral molecular structure is similar to that of adamantane and almost identical to the structure of phosphorus pentoxide. [4] Phosphorus pentasulfide is obtained by the reaction of liquid white phosphorus (P 4) with sulfur above 300 °C. The first synthesis of P 4 S 10 by Berzelius in 1843 [5] was by this method.
