LiF, BeF2, PCl3, CCl4, F2
1. which is likely to conduct electricity when aqueous:
2. which is most likely to be a gas in room temp.
3. which is likely to be very soluble in water
4. which is a polar molecule?

Do you know which are ionic and which covalent? That is the secret to answering this question. LiF is ionic, it dissolves in H2O and because the ions are in solution it conducts electricity.
which one is at room temperature then ?
The one most likely to be a gas at room T is F2
LiF is likly to be soluble in water because both are polar; polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents.
LiF is polar; PCl3 is polar. F2, BeF2, CCl4 are not polar.
