Which of the following equations is balanced?

A) 4P + 5O₂  → 2P₂O₅

Explanation:

A) 4P + 5O₂  → 2P₂O₅

This equation is balanced. There are four phosphorus and ten oxygen atoms are on both side of equation.

B) 5P + 4O₂    →    2P₄O₅

This equation is not balanced. There are five phosphorus and eight oxygen atoms on left, eight phosphorus ten oxygen on right side of equation.

C) 2P + O₂    →      P₂O₅

This equation is not balanced. There are two phosphorus, two oxygen atoms on left and two phosphorus five oxygen on right side of equation.

D) 4P + 2O₂    →   2P₄O₅

This equation is not balanced. There are four phosphorus, four oxygen atoms on left and eight phosphorus ten oxygen on right side of equation.

a  solution  is always transparent, light passes through with no scattering from solute particles which are molecule in size. the  solution  is homogeneous and does not settle out. a colloid is intermediate between asolution  and a  suspension. while asuspension  will separate out a colloid will not.
