NaCl is ionically bonded with stong electrostatic attractions whereas Cl2 only has weak Van Der Waals' forces acting between the molecules More strength is needed to break NaCl's bonds than CL2's bonds. Therefore, NaCl is solid and Cl2 is a gas Hope this helps :)

∙ 11y agoThis question is asking about the intermolecular forces between the molecules of Cl2 ect...
The force that exists between these molecules is London Dispersion forces which refer the random arrangement of electrons at any given time in in the molecule, this leads to instantaneous dipoles and givens the molecule an interatomic
attraction to a neighboring molecule. Cl2 is a gas because it has the least electrons and protons, and the strength of it's pull at any given time will be less than Br2 and I2 successively, whom both have a larger number of protons and electrons and their spontaneous strength of pull is larger, giving overall stronger intermolecular forces. Br2 being less than I2.

How do halogen molecules exist?
Halogens are considered to be diatomic molecules. They exist in gas (F2, Cl2), liquid (Br2) and solid phase (Iodine I2).
Balance Cl2 plus KBr - Br2 plus KCl?
The balanced equation is Cl2 + 2 KBr -> Br2 + 2 KCl.
What color are Cl2 Br2 F2 and I2?
I2 is deep purple color. Br2 is a reddish brown, Cl2 is a green. F2 is yellow.
What does KBr plus Cl2 yield?
KCl + Br2
