The four bonds of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4<span>) are </span>polar, but the molecule isnonpolar<span> because the bond polarity is canceled by the symmetric tetrahedral shape. When other atoms substitute for some of the Cl atoms, the symmetry is broken and the molecule becomes </span>polar

Carbon tetrachloride is non-polar due to the symmetric tetrahedral shape of the molecule which cancels the polarity between Cl-C bond. When one Cl atom is changed by another atom then the molecule becomes polar. Hope this answers the question.

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

3 valence electrons

Explanation:

Because aluminum has three, that means three fluorines can bond. The make the formula AlF3, also known as aluminum trifluoride. Each of the fluorine atoms gets an electron to fill their shell, and the aluminum loses three, giving it a filled shell too (remember, aluminum has three extra electrons).

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

A crystalline solid

Explanation:

Most solids form with a regular arrangement of their particles because the overall attractive interactions between particles are maximized, and the total intermolecular energy is minimized, when the particles pack in the most efficient manner. The regular arrangement at an atomic level is often reflected at a macroscopic level.  Liquids dont use to have this kind of arrangements or shapes.

Sati [7]

Answer:

mineral oil; close to; slowly turn

Explanation:

Temperature can be defined as a measure of the degree of coldness or hotness of a physical object. It is measured with a thermometer and its units are Celsius (°C), Kelvin (K) and Fahrenheit (°F).

Generally, temperature measures the average kinetic energy of particles in a particular substance.

A thermometer can be defined as a device used for measuring the temperature (degree of hotness or coldness) of a body or substance is. It is a thin glass having a bulb on one of its end and typically contains either colored alcohol or mercury.

A thermometer adapter is used with a temperature probe in the distillation process, in order to determine readings.

To insert a thermometer into an adapter, use mineral oil to prepare or make suitable the thermometer. Then, hold the thermometer close to the adapter and slowly turn the thermometer into the adapter.
