Answer:

a)CH₄, BH₃, and CCl₄

Explanation:

London dispersion forces:-

The bond for example, in the molecule is F-F, which is non-polar in nature because the two fluorine atoms have same electronegativity values.

The intermolecular force acting in the molecule are induced dipole-dipole forces or London Dispersion forces / van der Waals forces which are the weakest intermolecular force.

Out of the given options, H₂O , NH₃ exhibits hydrogen bonding which is:-

Hydrogen bonding:-

Hydrogen bonding is a special type of the dipole-dipole interaction and it occurs between hydrogen atom that is bonded to highly electronegative atom which is either fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen atom.

Thus option B and C rules out.

Hence, the correct option which represents the molecules which would exhibit only London forces is:- a)CH₄, BH₃, and CCl₄

Researchers used a combustion method to analyze a compound used as an antiknock additive in gasoline. A 9.394 mg sample of the c

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The percent composition of the compound is 90.5 % C and 9.5 % H

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of compound = 9.394 mg

Mass of CO2 yielded = 31.154 mg

Mass of H2O yielded = 7.977 mg

Molar mass of CO2 = 44.01 g/mol

Molar mass of H2O = 18.02 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles CO2

moles of CO2 = (0.031154 g / 44.01 g/mol) = 7.08 * 10^-4 mol CO2

Step 3: Calculate moles C

moles of C = moles of CO2 * (1 mol C / 1 mol CO2)

moles of C = 7.08 * 10^-4 mol

Step 4: Calculate moles H2O

moles of H2O = (0.007977 g / 18.02 g/mol) = 4.43 * 10^-4 mol H2O

Step 5: Calculate moles of H

moles of H = moles of H2O * (2 mol H / 1 mol H2O)

moles of H = 4.43* 10^-4 *2 = 8.86 * 10^-4 mol H

Step 6: Calculate mass of C

mass C = moles C * molar mass C

mass C = 7.08 * 10^-4 mol*12.01 g/mol

mass C = 0.0085 grams

Step 7: Calculate mass of H

mass H = moles H * molar mass H

mass H = 8.86 * 10^-4 mol*1.01 g/mol

mass H = 0.000894 grams

Step 8: Calculate total mass of compound =

0.0085 grams + 0.000894 grams = 0.009394 grams = 9.394 mg

Step 9: Calculate the percent composition:

% C = (8.50 mg / 9.394 mg) x 100 = 90.5%

% H = (0.894 mg / 9.394 mg) x 100 = 9.5%

The percent composition of the compound is 90.5 % C and 9.5 % H

A current of 5. 68 a is passed through a Fe(NO3)2 solution. How long, in hours, would this current have to be applied to plate o

daser333 [38]

There are 1.2 hr would this current have to be applied to plate out 7. 20 g of iron .

Calculation ,

Given ; Current ( I ) = 5. 68 A

In $Fe(NO_{3} )_{2}$ , the valancy of Fe is +2 .

2 moles of $e^{-}$ are required for the decomposition of 1 mole of Fe .

7. 20 g of Fe in moles = 7. 20 g /55.845 g/mol =0.12 mole

x moles of $e^{-}$ are required for the decomposition of 0.128 mole of Fe .

moles of $e^{-}$ are required = 0.256 moles

Charge on 1 mole of $e^{-}$ = 96500 C

Charge on 0.256 mole of $e^{-}$ = 24704 C

Current ( I )= Q/t

t =Q / I = 24704 C/5. 68 A = 4349 sec = 1.2 hr

Therefore , there are 1.2 hr would this current have to be applied to plate out 7. 20 g of iron .
