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.
Explanation:
Z = atomic mass of the element and , A = atomic mass of the element .
a) Z = 11, A = 23
Element = Sodium
symbol: ²³₁₁Na .
b) Z = 28, A = 64
Element = Nickel
symbol: ⁶⁴₂₈Ni .
c) Z = 50, A = 115
Element = tin
symbol: ¹¹⁵₅₀Sn .
d) Z = 20, A = 42
Element = Calcium
symbol: ⁴²₂₀Ca .
A. and D. would be the best pick for this sort of experiment, but maybe (unlikely) B. because you could see how they could react in certain situations, how they react to danger but I suggest A.

Atoms are indivisible spheres-Dalton model
John Dalton was the first to propose a theory to describe matter. As per Dalton's model, all matter is composed of atoms which resemble tiny 'ball-like' structures that are indivisible.
