Why is chlorine a nonmetal

Chemistry
1 answer:
baherus [9]2 years ago
3 0
Well on the periodic table Cl is in the section saying it is a non metal. In addition, it is nonmetls because it is usually a gas while metals are not. Finally, it is a non metal because it usually gains electrons instead of losing them during a reaction unlike metals.

For the equilibrium PCl5(g) PCl3(g) + Cl2(g), Kc = 2.0 × 101 at 240°C. If pure PCl5 is placed in a 1.00-L container and allowed
Cloud [144]

Answer:

the equilibrium concentration of [PCl₅] is 3.64*10⁻³ M

Explanation:

for the reaction

PCl₅(g) → PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g)

where

Kc= [PCl₃]*[Cl₂]/[PCl₅] = 2.0*10¹ M = 20 M

and [A] denote concentrations of A

if initially the mixture is pure PCl₅ , then it will dissociate according to the reaction and since always one mole of PCl₃(g) is generated with one mole of Cl₂(g) , the total number of moles of both at the end is the same → they have the same concentration → [PCl₃(g)] = [Cl₂]=0.27 M

therefore

Kc= [PCl₃]*[Cl₂]/[PCl₅] = 0.27 M* 0.27 M /[PCl₅] = 20 M

[PCl₅]  =  0.27 M* 0.27 M / 20 M = 3.64*10⁻³ M

[PCl₅]  = 3.64*10⁻³ M

the equilibrium concentration of [PCl₅] is 3.64*10⁻³ M

Which property is true for metals
san4es73 [151]

most metals conduct electricity and are very dull to the look. most metals are toxic if eaten and are hard.

aluminum is a type of metal they is softer than the opther and conducts eletricty like a boss.

nickel on the opther hand is also a metal but does not conduct a lot of electricy.

metals can be bent and others can break,
