Phosphorus - covalent network
Argon - covalent molecular
No, phosphorus and argon are not similar. Phosphorus is a nonmetal element commonly found in compounds like DNA and bones, while argon is a noble gas known for its inert properties. They have different chemical properties and uses.
Yes, argon and phosphorus can be used together in certain applications. For example, argon can be used as an inert atmosphere to protect phosphorus from reacting with oxygen or moisture. Additionally, argon can also be used as a carrier gas in chemical vapor deposition processes involving phosphorus compounds.
No, argon does not have a giant covalent structure. Argon is a noble gas that exists as individual atoms rather than forming covalent bonds with other atoms to create a giant structure.
Argon is an element, not a molecule, and as such does not have a molecular formula, but rather a symbol - "Ar".
The most electronegative element among Argon, Chlorine, Phosphorus, and Sulfur is Chlorine. Chlorine is more electronegative than Phosphorus and Sulfur and Argon is an inert noble gas with very low electronegativity.

Because Argon exists as diatomic Ag2 molecules, with relatively weak inter-mocular forces (Van-der-Waals forces) between the molecules. Melting Argon only requires that these inter-olecular forces are overcome, which does not requires much energy as the molecules are small - so Argon melts at -189 degrees celcius - so is a gas at R.T.P Silicon on the other hand exists in a macro-molecular form, and all the atoms are covalently bonded to each other in a giant molecular lattice. To melt silicon, covalent bonds must be broken, which requires a great deal of energy, and hence silicon only melts at 1414 degrees celcius
Argon is a noble gas, which means it does not readily form chemical bonds with other elements. Therefore, argon does not typically form ionic or covalent bonds; it exists as individual atoms.
No, argon does not form covalent bonds. Being a noble gas, argon exists as individual atoms that do not bond with other atoms to share electrons. Argon atoms have a full valence shell, making them stable and unreactive.
Argon does not participate in covalent or ionic bonding. It is a noble gas with a full outer electron shell, making it stable and unreactive.
The covalent radius of argon is 106 +/- 10 picometers.
No, phosphorus is more reactive than argon. Phosphorus readily reacts with other elements to form compounds, whereas argon is a noble gas with very low reactivity due to its stable electron configuration.
Silicon has a high melting point due to its strong covalent bonds forming a network structure. In contrast, argon exists as individual atoms held together by weak London dispersion forces, resulting in a low melting point.
