Question 15
Question
'Increasing charge density of the positive ion polarises the chloride ion as we move to the right hand side'. Is this true?
Question 16
Question
Here is a list describing and explaining the melting point trend across period 3. Which one is INCORRECT
Answer
-
Na -----> Al = steady increase as there is an increase in the availability of electrons in the metallic bonding
-
Si = massive increase since Si has a giant macromolecular structure
-
P = slight increase due to as have only van der Waals forces between molecules whereas the others have giant structures; P4 molecule
-
S = small increase as have only van der Waals forces between molecules whereas the others have giant structures; S8 molecule
-
P= large decrease as have only van der Waals forces between molecules whereas the others have giant structures; P4 molecule
-
Cl ---> Ar = decrease as chlorine is a much smaller molecule with weaker van der Waals forces; argon is just a single atom = very weak van der Waals forces
