Chapter 6: Problem 17
From the reaction \(P_{\text {white }} \longrightarrow P_{\text {red }} ; \Delta H=18.4 \mathrm{~kJ}\) follows that (1) Red \(\mathrm{P}\) is readily formed from white \(\mathrm{P}\). (2) White \(\mathrm{P}\) is readily formed from \(\mathrm{red} \mathrm{P}\). (3) White P cannot be converted to red \(P\). (4) Whitc P can be converted into red \(\mathrm{P}\) and red \(\mathrm{P}\) is more stable.
