Answer:
The predominant intermolecular force in the liquid state of each of these compounds:
ammonia (NH3)
methane (CH4)
and nitrogen trifluoride (NF3)
Explanation:
The types of intermolecular forces:
1.Hydrogen bonding: It is a weak electrostatic force of attraction that exists between the hydrogen atom and a highly electronegative atom like N,O,F.
2.Dipole-dipole interactions: They exist between the oppositely charged dipoles in a polar covalent molecule.
3. London dispersion forces exist between all the atoms and molecules.
NH3 ammonia consists of intermolecular H-bonding.
Methane has London dispersion forces.
Because both carbon and hydrogen has almost similar electronegativity values.
NF3 has dipole-dipole interactions due to the electronegativity variations between nitrogen and fluorine.
Well, if you look at group 1 of the periodic table, you will notice a thrend. All elements in group 1 have 1 valence / outer electron. Then you look at period 2, 3, 4 and so on, you will see that the group number corresponds the number of valence/ outershell electrons. Hence, the group determines the electron(s) on the outershell.
Answer:
2578.99 years
Explanation:
Given that:
100 g of the wood is emitting 1120 β-particles per minute
Also,
1 g of the wood is emitting 11.20 β-particles per minute
Given, Decay rate = 15.3 % per minute per gram
So,
Concentration left can be calculated as:-
C left =
Where,
is the concentration at time t
is the initial concentration
Also, Half life of carbon-14 = 5730 years
Where, k is rate constant
So,
The rate constant, k = 0.000120968 year⁻¹
Time =?
Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:
So,
<u>t = 2578.99 years</u>
