AI Generated Solution

To write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction of phosphorus burning in oxygen to form phosphorus pentoxide, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the unbalanced chemical equation Phosphorus (P) burns in oxygen (O₂) to form phosphorus pentoxide (P₂O₅). The unbalanced equation can be written as: \[ \text{P}_4 + \text{O}_2 \rightarrow \text{P}_2\text{O}_5 \] ...
