In the given examples, Cl2 and CCl4 are non-polar and held by covalent bonds. HI and H2O are polar molecules and held by ionic bonds.
Since covalent bonds are weaker than ionic bonds, Cl2 or CCl4 must have the lowest melting points. Among the two, Cl2 has a lower molecular mass than CCl4, hence Cl2 must have the lowest melting point.
Ans A) Cl2
You're right, it's a solid at room temperature :)
Answer:
thermochemical equation
Explanation:
A(n)__thermochemical equation_____is a balanced chemical equation that includes the physical states of all reactants and products, and the energy change that accompanies the reaction.
Answer:
What is the oxidation half reaction for iron?
The two elements involved, iron and chlorine, each change oxidation state; iron from +2 to +3, chlorine from 0 to -1. There are then effectively two half-reactions occurring. These changes can be represented in formulas by inserting appropriate electrons into each half-reaction: Fe2+ → Fe3+ + e.
Hope this helps..
Answer:
Period and groups are different because
PERIODS are the number of shells
I.e in lame man words the no of circles when drawn an element
GROUPS : these are the number of electrons in the outermost shell
Groups determine the valency*
