Answer: Mothballs have weak intermolecular forces.
No all substances do not behave like mothballs at normal conditions. Example: benzene , chloroform
Explanation:
Sublimation is a process of converting a substance from solid state to gaseous state without the formation of liquid at constant temperature.
A substance which undergoes sublimation is called as sublimating substance.
As mothballs is made of napthalene which has weak inter molecular forces of attraction between its molecules, it directly sublimes into gaseous state without leaving any residue and is called as a sublimating substance.
Not all substances behave like mothballs at normal conditions. Example: benzene , chloroform
2Ag+(aq) + CO2-_3(aq)-----------Ag2CO3
It is due to a lack of providable energy to the next trophic level of the energy pyramid. Primary consumers only obtain around 10% of energy that producers have, and the energy depletes as you move further and further up the food chain, until you reach the tertiary consumers which have the least amount of energy at their disposal, meaning there are less of them than other organisms further down the energy pyramid.
Hope this helped!
