Adding or removing energy from matter causes a physical change as matter moves from one state to another.

Example : adding thermal energy to liquid water causes it to become steam or vapor ( a gas ) and removing energy from liquid water causes it to become ice (a solid).

Why is CCl4 a nonpolar molecule, but PCl3 is a polar molecule?

Anna11 [10]

If you follow the octet rule, you know that an element must have 8 outside (or valence) electrons to be energetically favorable.

In CCl4, the carbon molecule forms four bonds; one for each chlorine atom. Each bond contains 2 electrons, so it is satisfied.

In PCl3, Phosphorous forms only 3 bonds with chlorine, which means in order to have 8 valence electrons, it also has a lone pair of electrons, not bonded with chlorine.

Now, in CCl4, picture the shape of the molecule like a plus sign, with the carbon in the middle and the chlorine at the four ends. It is symmetrical, and therefore is nonpolar.

In PCl3, the lone pair electrons <em>push</em>, so to speak, the 3 chlorine atoms away, making a T-shaped molecule. Since the chlorine is more electronegative than carbon, the molecule is unbalenced, making it polar.
