Answer:
The question is incomplete. The response options are as follows:
I. C-O or C=O
II. C-C
III. C-H
IV. O-H
The answer is: IV>III>I>II
Explanation:
V) O-H is a hydrogen bridge. The hydrogen bridge is characterized by being similar to dipole-dipole bonds.
III) C-H is an ionic bond. The ionic bond occurs when they fuse together due to electron transfer.
I) C=O is a covalent bond. The covalent bond happens when two atoms bond together to create a molecule, sharing its electrons that are in its most superficial layer,
II) C-C is covalent bond.
The factors that affect geometry of a molecule are
> The number of bonding electron pairs around the central atom.
> The number of pairs of non-bonding ("lone pair") electrons around the central atom.
Difference between Gas and Vapour:
Gas:
A thermodynamic state in which a substance exists only in one phase i.e. Gas phase. In above given examples N₂, He and CO₂ exists as gases at room temperature. These gases cannot form a solid or liquid phase along with gas phase as these states requires very low temperatures.
Vapours:
It is a thermodyanamic state in which a substance exists in more than one phase. In given options Sulfur can exist in vapor state. This is because sulfur exists in a cyclic or chain form due to catenation (self linkage property). Therefore, a lower members of S allotrops can form a vapours.
