Answer 1

Answer:

Phosphorus Characteristics

Characteristics: White phosphorus is a highly reactive, waxy, white-yellow, transparent solid with acrid fumes. It emits a weak green glow in the presence of oxygen. It is insoluble in water, but soluble in carbon disulfide.

Explanation:

Characteristics: Chlorine is a greenish-yellow, diatomic, dense gas with a sharp smell of bleach. It is not found free in nature as it combines readily with nearly all other elements.

Answer 2

White phosphorus is a highly reactive, waxy, white-yellow, transparent solid with acrid fumes. It emits a weak green glow (luminescence) in the presence of oxygen. It is insoluble in water, but soluble in carbon disulfide.

Chlorine is a greenish-yellow, diatomic, dense gas with a sharp smell (the smell of bleach). It is not found free in nature as it combines readily with nearly all other elements. Chlorine occurs in nature mainly as common salt (NaCl), carnallite [ KMgCl2.
