Answer:

STRUCTURE:

  • Metals have a crystalline structure, whereas non-metals possess amorphic structure.
  • At room temperature, metals are usually solid, except mercury and gallium which are in the liquid state. Conversely, non-metals can be found in solid or gaseous form, except Bromine which is the only non-metal that is present in liquid form.
  • Density is the ratio of mass to volume; metals have a higher density as compared to non-metals.
  • Metals look smooth and shiny, while non-metals usually appear dull.
  • When it comes to hardness, metals are generally hard substance, but it varies from substance to substance. Unlike non-metals is soft substance except diamond, which is the hardest substance on earth.

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES:

  • Metals support conduction of heat and electricity. Conversely, non-metals are insulators, and so they do not support conduction of heat and electricity.
  • Metals have a very high melting and boiling point. In contrast, non-metals are boiled and melted at a relatively low temperature.
  • In the outer shell, metals consist of 1 to 3 electrons, whereas non-metals consist of 4 to 8 electrons.

Phosphorus has three electrons in its 3p sublevel and sulfur has four. Phosphorus should have the lower ionization energy but it
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

First of all it is important to know that a half filled orbital is particularly stable. In phosphorus all the electrons occur singly in the 3p sublevel minimizing inter electronic repulsion hence it is more difficult to remove an electron from this energetically stable arrangement. In sulphur, electrons are paired in one of the 3p orbitals thereby lowering the energy of that level due to instability caused by interelectronic repulsion between two electrons in the same orbital.

At STP conditions, 0.25 mole of CO 2 (g), H 2 (g), NH 3 (g) will:
bija089 [108]
 <span>1 mole of any substance contains 6.02 x 10^23 particles. 

Hence 0.25 mole of any has will contain 0.25 x 6.02 x 10^23 molecules of that gas

They cannot contain the same no. of atoms as 1 molecule of CO2 contains 3 atoms, 1 molecule H2 contains 2 molecules, and 1 molecule of NH3 contain 4 atoms

1 molecule of any gas will occupy 22.4 L at STP

hence 0.25 mol of all of these gases accupy the same volume

all of these molecules have different molar masses. thus their g.f.w cannot be same

Your answer is that they will occupy the same volume, and the same number of molecules</span>
