The particles are given more energy and start to vibrate faster. In certain temps the particles vibrate so much that their ordered structure breaks down to the point the solid melts into liquid
With newly discovered materials, nothing is yet know about them. Scientists don't know how to conduct physical/chemical experiments without damaging the element. Lethal substances or corrosive materials can be set off from combustion or decomposition. It would be difficult to determine the properties because no one knows what the element is made of. Chemical properties are often characterized by <span>reactivity with other chemicals, such as toxicity, coordination number, flammability, enthalpy of formation, the heat of combustion, and <span>oxidation states. It is difficult to measure those things when you have no idea what an element may be giving off. </span></span>
The masses of the 2 most
common isotopes of Cl are 35 and 37. Therefore we can formulate 3 possible
masses of Cl2:
<span>
35 + 35 = 70
35 + 37 = 72
37 + 37 = 74
<span>However, Cl 35 is the most common isotope of chlorine of the
two therefore it is the most probable that two Cl 35 atoms will combine, so 70
is the most common among all.
