Here we have to choose the molecule which can generate ion-dipole interaction with ammonia.

The NH₃ will have ion dipole interaction only with b) NaOH.

a) The OCl₂ molecule is highly unstable and remains in a linear state as shown in the figure.

b) The NaOH is purely an ionic compound. There is one lone pair of electron on the nitrogen (N) atom of ammonia and also the N-H bond has dipole moment. Now among the given molecules only NaOH is ionic in nature which remains as Na⁺ and OH⁻. Thus we can expect an ion-dipole interaction between these molecules, it is shown in the figure.

c) SiO₂ is purely an covalent compound the structure is shown in the figure.

d) Methyl iodide (CH₃I) is also a covalent compound.

e) The butanol (C₄H₉OH) is a covalent compound.

So we may expect only ion-dipole interaction with b) NaOH.

For a reaction at equilibrium, which change can increase the rates of the forward and reverse reactions?a decrease in the concen
Monica [59]
Question requires a change resulting in an increase in both forward and reverse reactions. Now lets discuss options one by one and see there impact on rate of reactions.

1) <span>A decrease in the concentration of the reactants:
                                                                                       
When concentration of reactant is decreased it will shift the equilibrium in Backward direction, so resulting in increasing the backward reaction and decreasing the forward direction. Hence, this option is incorrect.

2) </span><span>A decrease in the surface area of the products:
                                                                               Greater the surface Area greater is the chances of collision and greater will be the rate of reaction. As the surface area of products is decreased it will not favor the backward reaction. Hence again this statement is incorrect according to given statement.

3) </span><span>An increase in the temperature of the system:
                                                                             An increase in temperature will shift the reaction in endothermic side. Hence, if the reaction is endothermic, an increase in temperature will increase the rate of forward direction or if the reaction is exothermic it will increase the rate of reverse direction. Hence, this option is correct according to given statement.

4) </span><span>An increase in the activation energy of the forward reaction:
                                                                                                   An increase in Activation energy will decrease the rate of reaction, either it is forward or reverse. So this is incorrect.

Result:
          Hence, the correct answer is,"</span>An increase in the temperature of the system".

What happens in the redox reaction below? Select all that apply.
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

B- Sodium loses an electron.

D- Fluorine gains an electron.

Sodium is oxidized.

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

        Na  + F →  NaF

In this reaction, Na is the reducing agent. It loses an electron and then becomes oxidized. By so doing, Na becomes isoelectronic with Neon.

Fluorine gains the electron and then becomes reduced. This makes fluorine also isoelectronic with Neon.

This separation of charges on the two species leads to an electrostatic attraction which forms the ionic bonds.

in a given homologous series of hydrocarbons, the boiling point generally increases as the size of the molecules increases. the
vitfil [10]

The boiling point of hydrocarbons generally increases as the size of the molecules increases because more bonds are needs to be broken in larger organic molecules.

<h3>What are hydrocarbons?</h3>

Hydrocarbons are organic compounds which here composed of hydrogen and carbon alone.

Hydrocarbons are grouped into families or homologous series based on a reactive group known as the gincyiial group

The homologous series include

  • alkanes
  • alkenes
  • alkynes

The boiling point generally increases as the size of the molecules increases because more bonds are needs to be broken in larger organic molecules.
