Answer is: hydrogen bonding.

Methanol has stronger intermolecular bonds than methane.

Intermolecular forces are the forces between molecules or particles.

There are several types of intermolecular forces: hydrogen bonding, ion-induced dipole forces, ion-dipole forces andvan der Waals forces.

Hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between two polar groups that occurs when a hydrogen atom (H), covalently bound to a highly electronegative atom such as flourine (F), oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) atoms.

Passing an electric current through a sample of water (H2O) can cause the water to decompose into hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen g
Lerok [7]

The mass of water decomposed to produce 50 g oxygen has been 56.28 g. Thus, option D is correct.

The reaction for the decomposition of water has been:

\rm 2\;H_2O\;\rightarrow\;H_2\;+\;O_2

From the balanced equation, 2 moles of water decomposes to form 1 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen.

The mass of oxygen produced has been 50 g. The moles of oxygen has been given by:

\rm Moles=\dfrac{mass}{molar\;mass}

The moles of oxygen has been:

\rm Moles_O_2=\dfrac{50}{32}\;mol\\Moles_O_2=1.5625\;mol

The moles of oxygen produced has been 1.5625 mol.

The moles of hydrogen decomposed has been given from the balanced chemical equation as:

\rm 1 \;mole\;O_2=2\;mole\;H_2O\\1.5625\;mol\;O_2=1.5625\;\times\;2\;mol\;H_2O\\1.5625\;mol\;O_2=3.125\;mol\;H_2O

The moles of hydrogen decomposes has been 3.125 mol.

The mass of hydrogen decomposed has been given by:

\rm Mass=moles\;times\;molar\;mass\\Mass_{H_2O}=3.125\;\times\;18.01\;g\\Mass_{H_2O}=56.28\;g

The mass of water decomposed to produce 50 g oxygen has been 56.28 g. Thus, option D is correct.

With what elements does nitrogen form ionic bonds?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Group 1 and 2 elements

Explanation:

Nitrogen, a non-metal will form ionic bonds with most group 1 and group 2 metals on the periodic table.

How does ionic bonds form?

  • They are bonds formed between a highly electronegative specie and one with very low electronegativity.
  • As such, ionic bonds forms between metals and non-metals
  • In this bond type, the metal due to its electropositive nature will transfer electrons to the non-metals for it to gain.
  • The non-metals becomes negatively charged as the metal is positively charged.
  • The electrostatic attraction between the two specie leads to the formation of ionic bonds.

Most metals in group 1 and 2 fits in this description. Some of them are calcium, magnesium, lithium, Barium e.t.c.

It mostly favors group 2 metals.
