Answer:
Explanation:
Chemical properties of atoms relies solely on the number of electrons they contain, more particularly, the valence or outermost electrons in the orbit round the nucleus of an atom.
A neutral atom is one that has not gained or lost electron or even shared electrons with any other atom.
On close examination of how electrons are distributed in the orbits of an atom, we can know if an atom will gain or lose electrons in a reaction. This is very important in determining the chemical properties of an atom.

Answer:
-250.3kJ
Explanation:
Based in the reactions and using -<em>Hess's law-</em>:
(1) P₄(s) + 6 Cl₂(g) → 4PCl₃(g) ΔH₁ = -4439kJ
(2) 4PCl₅(g) → P₄(s) + 10Cl₂ ΔH₂ = 3438kJ
The sum of (1) + (2) is:
4PCl₅(g) → 4PCl₃(g) + 4 Cl₂ ΔH = -4439kJ + 3438kJ = -1001kJ
Dividing this reaction in 4:
PCl₅(g) → PCl₃(g) + Cl₂ ΔH = -1001kJ / 4 = <em>-250.3kJ</em>
