<span>Physical properties are easier to observe than chemical properties as they include characteristics such as color, texture, etc. while to observe chemical properties, testing must be done of the substance such as heating the substance up to determine at what temperature it will combust</span>

Answer:  Physical Properties

Explanation: Physical Properties are the properties which can be observe through naked eyes.

Chemical properties are the properties which induces any chemical change in the identity of the molecule.

Physical properties include color, smell, texture etc which can be easily observed but chemical properties include mass, volume reactivity which can only be observed when any changes in the chemical identity of the substance takes place.

Carlos is making phosphorus trichloride using the equation below. He uses 15.5 g of phosphorus and collects 50.9 g of phosphorus
Oxana [17]

Answer : The mass of chlorine reacted with the phosphorus is, 53.25 grams.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of phosphorus.

\text{Moles of phosphorus}=\frac{\text{Mass of phosphorus}}{\text{Molar mass of phosphorus}}

\text{Moles of phosphorus}=\frac{15.5g}{31g/mol}=0.5mol

Now we have to calculate the moles of Cl_2

The balanced chemical reaction is:

2P+3Cl_2\rightarrow 2PCl_3

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 moles of phosphorous react with 3 moles of Cl_2

So, 0.5 moles of phosphorous react with \frac{3}{2}\times 0.5=0.75 moles of Cl_2

Now we have to calculate the mass of Cl_2

\text{Mass of }Cl_2=\text{Moles of }Cl_2\times \text{Molar mass of }Cl_2

Molar mass of Cl_2 = 71 g/mol

\text{Mass of }Cl_2=0.75mol\times 71g/mol=53.25g

Therefore, the mass of chlorine reacted with the phosphorus is, 53.25 grams.

Explain why a potassium atom would not bond with a calcium atom?
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Calcium atoms have smaller radii than potassium atoms since calcium atoms have a greater nuclear charge. Each calcium atom will be closer to the delocalized electrons. Thus, the bonds in calcium will be stronger than that in potassium.

Which of the following is a characteristic of nonmetals?
stellarik [79]

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Non-metals are the species which in order to complete their octet readily gain an electron.

For example, fluorine is a non-metal with atomic number 9 and its electronic distribution is 2, 7.

Hence, to attain stability it readily accepts an electron from a donor atom.

Some characteristics of non-metals are as follows.

Non-metals do not conduct electricity.

Non-metals are brittle in nature and they have a rough surface.

Non-metals are not malleable or ductile.

Thus, we can conclude that non-metals do not conduct electricity is a characteristic of non-metals.
