It is covalent bonding. The electrons are shared between the phosphorus and the chlorines.

covalent bonding is when electrons are shared between two elements.

molecular polarity is a little bit complicated, but I will try to explain ;)
PCl3 is an alternation on tetrahedral molecules.
It means that P has one lone pair of electrons. This pair of electrons are only attracted to the P nuclei and thus a greater freedom of motion.
This means that their orbital is bigger and this pushes the 3 Cl atoms closer together.
The angle between each Cl now is 107 and the angle between Cls and P is greater than 107.
Now, due to this shape, and also electronegativity (Cl is more electronegative than P meaning that it tends to hog the electrons they share closer to itself), PCl3 is polar. Electrons that are shared tend to flow closer towards the Cl than the P side.
Therefore, on the Cl side of the molecule it's, more negative. On the P side, it's more positive.

When comparing the successive ionization energies of an element, an unusually big increase in ionization energy is seen when ___
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The first valence electron is removed.

Explanation:

Ionization energy is the energy that is needed to tear out the last electron of an atom in its ground state or gaseous state.

A(g)  + IE ----> A+(g)    + 1e-

When we talk about starting an electron we refer to the last valence electron, since it is the one that is furthest from the atomic nucleus, the one that does not feel attracted. As the question asks us the opposite, the ionization energy is going to be extremely high, if the electron to be removed occupies the first valence layer, since it is totally attracted to the nucleus.

Directions: Record the number of each atom in each molecule, then record the total number of atoms in the molecule.
Elan Coil [88]

Total number of atoms = 5

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The formula of a compound shows the composition of the constituent elements

CaCO₃ is composed of 3 types of atoms, namely Ca, C and O

The amounts of each of these atoms in the compound CaCO₃:

  • Ca = 1
  • C = 1
  • O = 3

Then total number of atoms :

\tt 1+1+3=5
