What physical state is carbon tetrachloride at room temperature?

It is a liquid because at room temperature the molecular structure of the substance wants to expand. When the substance expands it goes from being a solid to a liquid. This expansion takes place when the room is at the commonly know "room temperature"

One of the property of a compound states this. So CS2 is a liquid when carbon is a gas.

Is carbon tetrachloride or sodium chloride conduct electricity in molten state?
Carbon tetrachloride (tetra-chloromethane, CCl4) is a NON-ionic fluid at room temperature, it is noncunducting fluid. NaCl is an ionic salt and will conduct electricity only when in molten state: then freely movable cations and anions are available.
State the number and types of atoms present in carbon tetrachloride?
In carbon tetrachloride molecule,four atoms of chlorine are present.
What is the physical state of petroleum at room temperature?
The physical state of petroleum at room temperature is liquid.
What is hydrogen physical state at room temperature?
Hydrogen's physical state at room temperature is a gas.
What is the physical state of a covalent bond at room temperature?
This is actually a rather vague question. Bonds remain the same unless the temperature is high enough to break them. The physical state of a covalent bond is one of unequally shared electrons, that's pretty much it. In a carbon dioxide molecule, for example, the shared valence electrons spend more time with the oxygen nuclei than with the carbon nucleus.
Is gas the physical state of carbon?
The state of carbon at standard room temperature and pressure is solid.

What is the physical state of carbon?
At standard pressure and temperature it is a solid.
Does carbon tetrachloride conduct electricity when a solid?
Carbon tetrachloride is prepared by the action of chlorine on carbon disulphide in the presence of iodine, which acts as a catalyst. It is slightly conductive.
State the number and types of atoms present in carbon tetrachloride?
In carbon tetrachloride molecule,four atoms of chlorine are present.
What is the physical state of a straight -chain hydrocarbon containing three carbon atoms at room temperature?
gas
What physical state is steel at room temperature?
Steel is not an element it is a metallic alloy containing iron, carbon and other additives. At standard temperature and pressure it is a solid.
What is the physical state of the smallest alkanes at room temperature?
Alkanes with a carbon chain of 5 up to 17 are liquids. So the set of liquid alkanes begins with pentane, C5H12.
What state of matter is carbon at room temperature?
I believe that at room temperature, Carbon resides in the state of Minnesota.
What is hydrogen physical state at room temperature?
Hydrogen's physical state at room temperature is a gas.
What is the physical state of petroleum at room temperature?
The physical state of petroleum at room temperature is liquid.
Is state of matter at room temperature a chemical or physical property?
The state of matter is a physical property at any temperature.
