Answer:

Electronegativity generally increases from left to right across a period,

Explanation:

The true statement from the given choices is that electronegativity generally increases from left to right across a period.

Electronegativity is the measure of the relative tendency with which an atom of the element attract valence electrons in a chemical bond.

Across a period electronegativity increases from left to right and decreases down the group.

This is due to reduction in metallic properties as we move across the period from left to right.

If Kc = 4.0×10−2 for PCl3(g)+Cl2(g)⇌PCl5(g) at 520 K , what is the value of Kp for this reaction at this temperature?

Flauer [41]

Here we have to get the $K_{p}$ of the reaction at 520 K temperature.

The $K_{p}$ of the reaction is 1.705 atm

We know the relation between $K_{p}$ and $K_{c}$ is $K_{p}=K_{c}(RT)^{N}$ , where $K_{p}$ = The equilibrium constant of the reaction in terms of partial pressure, $K_{c}$ = The equilibrium constant of the reaction in terms of concentration and N = number of moles of gaseous products - Number of moles of gaseous reactants.
