When we wish to convert a gas to liquid we have to either

a) decrease temperature

b) increase pressure

In case of fire extinguisher the CO2 is found to be in liquid state, this is as the CO2 is pressurized at high pressure which keeps CO2 in liquid state

the ideal pressure and temperature conditions when CO2 gas can be converted to CO2 gas

Pressure = 5 - 73 atm

Temperature = -57  to 31 degree Celsius

Suppose that NaCl is added to hexane (C6H14) instead of water. Which of the following intermolecular forces will exist in the sy
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Ion-ion force between Na+ and Cl− ions

London dispersion force between two hexane molecules

Explanation:

"Ion-dipole force between Na+ ions and a hexane molecule " does not exist since hexane has only non-polar bonds and therefore no dipole.

"Ion-ion force between Na+ and Cl− ions " exists since both are ions.

"Dipole-dipole force between two hexane molecules " does not exist since hexane molecules do not have a dipole.

"Hydrogen bonding between Na+ ions and a hexane molecule " does not exist since the hydrogen in the hydrogen bond must be bonded directly to an electronegative atom, which hexane does not have since it is a hydrocarbon.

"London dispersion force between two hexane molecules" exist since hexane is a molecular compound.
