ICl has a higher boiling point than Br2. What is the best explanation for this?

Chemistry

Flura [38]3 years ago

<span>The best answer is B. ICl experiences induced dipole-induced dipole interactions. Both iodine and chlorine belongs to the same group of the periodic table. Electronegativity decreases as you go down a group therefore Cl will have a greater attraction with the bond it forms with another atom. Dipole-dipole interactions form between I and Cl. For the Br2 molecule, no dipole occurs because they are two identical atoms. Therefore we will be expecting ICl will have a higher boiling point due to higher binding energy it forms.</span>

Explain why diamonds are useful for electrodes in batteries
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Diamonds have a broader potential window of 3 to 5 volts.

Explanation:

The minimum voltage required for electrolysis is called potential window. Electrodes such as titanium electrodes and those made of noble metals have a potential window of about 2 volts. Diamond has a potential window of 3 to 5 volts that makes it preferentially start a redox reaction of a substance that is difficult to electrolyze. This facilitates electrolysis of substance that were difficult to decompose in normal electrochemical systems.
