What is thought to cause the dispersion forces?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ilya [14]2 years ago
4 0

a) attraction between ions causes the dispersion forces.

Attraction between ions is a temporary attractive force which occurs when electrons in two consecutive adjacently placed atoms occupies positional confined areas that make the atoms acting like Temporary dipoles.

Dispersion forces or London Dispersion forces is the weakest force caused due to motion of electron.

On increasing the number of electrons the magnitude to Dispersion forces increases.

Dispersion forces also depends upon the atomic or the molecular weight of the given substance.

It is caused by an unequal and uneven distribution of the electrons inside an atom.

This causes a slight positive and slight negative charge to be formed inside an atom by establishing a temporary dipole. This temporary dipole induces a nearby atom by inducing another temporary dipole in the other one.

How may a substance be tested to determine whether or not it is an element
yaroslaw [1]

Always remember that a compound can be separated into simpler substances by chemical methods/reactions. While elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical reactions. You can do a flame test and spectrum analysis to determine whether a solid material is an element or a compound. Check the boiling and/or melting point, color or density. Also check the solid material’s reaction with oxygen, hydrogen, calcium, or various acids. Examine and study its physical chemistry. The element(s) that may be present may be identified by checking the absorption edges from an x-ray spectrum.

1.5 mol of the complex substance carbon dioxide (CO2) is just a few oxygen atoms:
laila [671]

Answer:

9.03 x 10²³atoms

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of CO₂  = 1.5mol

Unknown:

Number of atoms  = ?

Solution:

In a mole of a substance, we have the Avogadro's number of particles which is 6.02 x 10²³atoms.

  Using this number, we can determine the amount of atoms in any substance.

If;

       1 mole of CO₂ contains 6.02 x 10²³ atoms;

     1.5mole of CO₂ will contain 1.5 x 6.02 x 10²³ atoms

                                                = 9.03 x 10²³atoms

If you want 2 miles of Silver (Ag) from the reaction below, how many grams of copper should you start with? Reaction: Cu + 2AgNO
RSB [31]

Answer:

You should start with 63.54 grams of copper.

Explanation:

The chemical reactions are processes in which the nature of the substances changes, that is, from some initial substances called reactants, totally different ones called products are obtained.

In the chemical reaction, the formulas of reagents and products appear preceded by numbers (the stoichiometric coefficients) that indicate the proportions according to which the transformation occurs. So you can say that stoichiometry establishes relationships between the molecules or elements that make up the reactants of a chemical equation with the products of said reaction. The relationships that are established are MOLAR relationships between the compounds or elements that make up the chemical equation: always in MOLES.

The stoichiometric coefficients of a chemical equation are due to the fact that the atoms present before the reaction must be the same after the reaction, although they will have been rearranged to produce new substances.

If you want 2 moles of silver (Ag), for stoichiometry of the reaction you need a moles of copper Cu. Being the molar mass of copper Cu 63.54 g / mole, then:

1 mole*63.54 g/mole= 63.54 g

<u><em> You should start with 63.54 grams of copper.</em></u>
