Halogens are a group of elements consisting of Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. In their ionic form, they have a superscript of -1, for example, chloride ion is Cl-1. These means that they readily accept one electron in order to achieve the Octet rule. The Octet rule states that each atom must contain 8 electrons in their valence shell for it to be stable. The most stable set of elements are the noble gases. Because they already fulfill the Octet rule, they no longer take part in reactions. Halogens are also very electronegative, meaning, they attract more electrons toward them. This is also a consequence of the Octet rule.
From the choices, the answers would be:
<span>they require only one electron to complete their outer shell
they have a high electronegativity</span>
It will melt or the molecules inside of it will get hot
Answer:
21.5 g.
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, since the reaction between the given compounds is:

We can see that according to the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter is neither created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction, the total mass of products equals the total mass of reactants based on the stoichiometric proportions; in such a way, we first need to compute the reacted moles of Li3P as shown below:

Now, the moles of Li3P consumed by 15 g of Al2O3:

Thus, we infer that just 0.29 moles of 0.73 react to form products; which means that the mass of formed products is:

Therefore, the total mass of products is:

Which is not the same to the reactants (53 g) because there is an excess of Li₃P.
Best Regards!
