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>

Calculate the number of atoms in 2 mol of sulfur dioxide (SO2).
Alex17521 [72]
Two moles of SO2 means 1.204x10^24 molecules, since there are 3 atoms in one molecule, multiply 1.204 x10^24 by 3 and you get 3.612x10^24.
