Explanation:

When we move across a period from left to right then there will occur an increase in electronegativity and also there will occur an increase in non-metallic character of the elements.

As calcium (Ca) is a group 2A element and rubidium (Rb) is a group 1A element. Hence, Rb being an alkali metal is more metallic in nature than calcium (alkaline earth metal).

Both magnesium (Mg) and radium (Ra) are group 2A elements. And, when we move down a group then as the size of element increases so, it becomes easy of the metal atom to lose an electron.

As a result, there occurs an increase in metallic character of the element. Hence, Radium (Ra) is more metallic in nature than magnesium (Mg).

Also, both bromine and iodine are group 17 elements. Since, both of them are non-metals and non-metallic character increases on moving down the group.

Therefore, bromine (Br) is more metallic than iodine.

Sometimes when performing a crystallization, one solvent alone will not work and you have to use a solvent-pair. Will the solven
love history [14]

For the crystallization purpose the combination of solvent process is known to be an effective process. But the solvent pair one have to choose crucially. The solvent which is completely in soluble into the other solvent can not work as a good solvent pair for the crystallization. The crystallization of any compound by the solvent pair process is depend upon the slow diffusion of a less polar solvent to the polar solvent or vice-versa.

If a compound is soluble in a polar solvent the slow diffusion of relatively low polar solvent will make crystal of the compound. But anyhow the solvents which are completely not immiscible to each other will not work for the purpose. Thus diethyl ether and water solvent pair can not be used for the crystallization process.

At 500 K, the reaction is at equilibrium with the following concentrations. [PCI5]= 0.0095 M [PCI3] = 0.020 [CI2] = 0.020 M What
Ad libitum [116K]
Although it is omitted, the reaction equation for the decomposition of phosphorus pentachloride is:
PCl₅ → PCl₃ + Cl₂

The equilibrium constant's equation then becomes:
Kc = [PCl₃]*[Cl₂] / [PCl₅]
Kc = (0.02 * 0.02) / 0.0095
Kc = 0.042

The equilibrium constant is 0.042.

tangare [24]
  • Mass=72g
  • Volume=4mL

\\ \sf\longmapsto Density=\dfrac{Mass}{Volume}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Density=\dfrac{72}{4}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Density=18g/mL
