SnCL2 is solid while SnCl4 is liquid ...?

1 answer:

8 0

As the oxidation state of a metal increases, its electronegativity increases and the bonds become increasingly covalent. SnCl2 forms a network solid where the atoms are bonded to one another throughout a network of polar covalent bonds. SnCl4 is molecular, and held together by weaker intermolecular forces called London dispersion forces.

For which applications would you choose a liquid over a gas or solid?

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Washing Clothes & Dissolving Sugar

Explanation:

Think about each application:

1) Washing clothes: You kind of need water to do this, or not much washing can be done.

2) Linking brake pedals to the brake pads: You don't need any liquids for this. You need solids.

3) Deodorizing a room: You would problem choose an aerosol, which is sprayed, thus a gas.

4) Carving a sculpture: You would use solid tool and a sold sculpture.

5) Dissolving sugar: You need a liquid to dissolve sugar!

6) Painting a wall: Perhaps, you COULD say that the paint is a liquid... but I'm not sure if that really counts. I believe this application would still be solids.

7) A gear for a machine is a solid!
