Textbook Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.64QP

White phosphorus is available in sticks, which have a waxy appearance. This is a molecular substance, P4. When this solid is vaporized, it first forms P4 molecules; but at high temperature, P2 molecules are formed. How do the molecules of white phosphorus and those of the hot vapor differ? How are the molecules alike?
