The compound ncl3 is nitrogen trichloride, but alcl3 is simply aluminum chloride. why? check all that apply. check all that apply. the compound alcl3 is an ionic compound (metal and nonmetal), and therefore does not require prefixes\-âso alcl3 is aluminum chloride. ncl3 is a molecular compound (two or more nonmetals), and therefore in its name prefixes indicate the number of each type of atom\-âso ncl3 is nitrogen trichloride. alcl3 is a molecular compound (two or more nonmetals), and therefore in its name prefixes indicate the number of each type of atom\-âso alcl3 is aluminum chloride. the compound ncl3 is an ionic compound (metal and nonmetal), and therefore does not require prefixes\-âso ncl3 is nitrogen trichloride. none of the above.

Answers are:
The compound AlCl3 is an ionic compound (metal and nonmetal), and therefore does not require prefixes\-−so AlCl3 is aluminum chloride.
NCl3 is a molecular compound (two or more nonmetals), and therefore in its name prefixes indicate the number of each type of atom\-−so NCl3 is nitrogen trichloride.
Nitrogen has different oxidation numbers, in this compound it has +3 and chlorine has -1, compound must have neutral charge.

Answer from: milly1903

The compound AlCl_3 is an ionic compound (metal and nonmetal) and therefore does not require prefixes so AlCl_3 is aluminum chloride.

NCl_3 is a molecular compound (two or more nonmetals), and therefore in its name prefixes indicate the number of each type of atom so

NCl_3 is nitrogen trichloride.

FURTHER EXPLANATIONBinary Ionic Compound NomenclatureIonic compounds are compounds made up of metals and nonmetals. Metals are elements that readily lose valence electrons and form positively charged ions called cations. Nonmetals are atoms that readily gain electrons and form negatively charged ions called anions.The electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged ions pulls and holds them together forming the ionic compound.The compound is named based on the name of the cation and anion that it is made of.The cation name is simply the name of the metal element plus the word ion.The anion name is the first or first two syllables of the name of the nonmetal element plus the suffix -ide.Example: KCl

cation name: potassium ion

anion name: chloride

compound name: potassium chloride

Covalent (Molecular) Compound NomenclatureMolecular compounds are a group of nonmetal elements that are sharing their electrons for stability. They are named by using prefixes that correspond to their subscripts (how many atoms of the element is present in the molecule).The prefixes include:

mono - 1 hexa - 6

di - 2 hepta - 7

tri - 3 octa - 8

tetra - 4 nona - 9

penta - 5 deca - 10

The prefix mono- is never written for the first element of a covalent compound but may be used for the second or succeeding elements (e.g. CO is carbon monoxide NOT monocarbon monoxide).Example: CO_2

no. of carbon atom = 1 (mono-)

no. of oxygen atom = 2 (di-)

name of the compound: carbon dioxide

explanation:

Answer from: Quest

explanation:

venn diagram is pictorial representation with of circles showing the relation between two finite sets or things. the intersection part of two circles conveys the relation present in between those sets or things.

here in the venn diagram of sand and salt two circles represent sand and salt. but the area falling under the intersection of these circle represents the mixture of sand and salt.

so, in a venn diagram the mixture will be placed in a middle that is in between the intersection of two circles.
