Silicon is a metalloid.
No. Si is not a metal .It is a metalloid.
Chlorine is not a metalloid. It is a non metal.
Sodium (Na) and Magnesium (Mg) are two elements in the same period (period 3).
Ok Um, I do know the Answer, There are no Lone Pairs of Electrons in the Valence Shell of The Central Atom of SiCl4, because: Si has the Number Configuration of: 2,8,4 The '4' is the number of dots, it has surrounding Si, one above Si, one under Si, one on the right side of Si, one on the left side of Si. Cl has the Number Configuration of: 2,8,7 The '7' is the number of dots, it has surrounding Cl, you can have it in any order, i.e. one above Cl, two under Cl, two on the right side of Cl, two on the left side of Cl. But when you join SiCl4 together, and make it into a Lewis Structure, then the Central Atom is Si, Then Si will have one Cl bonding above Si, one Cl bonding under Si, one Cl bonding on the right side of Si, one Cl bonding on the left side of Si, and now all you can see, is that Si has Four Cl, attaching, bonding to Si, and now Si doesnt have any Lone Pairs
ionic
From greatest to least tendency to accept an electron, they are F, O, C, Li, and Be.
Na. Si is often considered a semi-metal or metalloid.
Fluorine has the most electronegative element, Cl and Br
The order from highest to lowest ionization energy is Cl > Al > Si > Na > S. This is because ionization energy generally increases from left to right and from bottom to top in the periodic table.
Cl (chlorine) is classified as a nonmetal. Al (aluminum), Si (silicon), and Cl (chlorine) are located in different areas of the periodic table: aluminum is a metal, silicon is a metalloid, and chlorine is a nonmetal.
Na is the best insulator among Na, Si, and S. This is because Na is a metal and tends to have very low conductivity compared to Si and S which are semiconductors or nonmetals with higher conductivity.
No. Si is not a metal .It is a metalloid.
Salt is a compound of Sodium (Na) and of Chlorine (Cl), thus, it is a nonmetal because it is a compound of 2 nonmetals. Na is not a nonmetal it is a highly active metal. This can be easily googled.
Silicon (Si) is a metalloid.
The best insulator is likely C because it is a nonmetal. Nonmetals are poor conductors and therefore good insulators. Si is a metalloid.
