Answer:

B. Lower than 100 °C because hydrogen sulfide has dipole-dipole interactions instead of hydrogen bonding.

Explanation:

Intermolecular bonds exists between seperate molecules or units. Their relative strength determines many physical properties of substances like state of matter, solubility of water, boiling point, volatility, viscosity etc. Examples are Van der waals forces, hydrogen bonds and crystal lattice forces.

In hydrogen sulfide, the intermolecular bond is a dipole-dipole attraction which is a type of van der waals attraction. It occurs as an attraction between polar molecules. These molecules line such that the positive pole of one molecule attracts the negative pole of another.

In water, the intermolecular bond is hydrogen bonds in which an electrostatic attraction exists between the hydrogen atom of one molecule and the electronegative atom of a neighbouring molecule.

Based on their relative strength:

Van der Waals forces < Hydrogen bonding forces < crystal lattice

This makes water boil at a higher temperature than hydrogen sulfide.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer: 0.050M urea, 0.10M glucose, 0.2M sucrose, pure water

Explanation:

Vapor pressure refers to the ease with which a liquid substance is transformed into vapour. High vapour density implies that the liquid is easily transformed into gas. Pure water is expected to have the lowest vapour density since it is held by strong intermolecular forces in the liquid state. Urea is an organic liquid held by weak Van der Waals forces hence its extremely high vapor pressure.

Element X has two isotopes. If 72.0% of the element has an isotope mass of 84.9 atomic mass units, and 28.0% of the element has

bija089 [108]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Average atomic mass of an element is the sum of the masses of its isotopes each multiplied by its natural abundance

$\footnotesize \longrightarrow \: \rm Average \: atomic \: mass = \dfrac{ \sum\limits \: \% age \: of \: each \: isotope \times Atomic \: mass }{100} \\$

$\footnotesize \longrightarrow \: \rm Average \: atomic \: mass = \dfrac{ 72 \times84.9 + 28 \times 87 }{100} \\$

$\footnotesize \longrightarrow \: \rm Average \: atomic \: mass = \dfrac{ 6112.8 + 2436 }{100} \\$

$\footnotesize \longrightarrow \: \rm Average \: atomic \: mass = \dfrac{ 8548.8 }{100} \\$

$\footnotesize \longrightarrow \: \bf Average \: atomic \: mass = 85.488 \: amu \\$

Describe and compare the building blocks, general structires and biological functions of carbohydrates lipids proteins and nucle

Nata [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Carbohydrates are basically composed of Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen having the general formula CnH2nOn.

There are 3 types of carbohydrates which are dependent on the number of "n"

Monosaccharides which are n>3 (Triose) are the aldose and ketose.

They are the simpleat and smallest form and they are Glucose, fructose and galactose

Disaccharides are structure of the combination of the monosaccharides by glycosidic bond and they are sucrose, lactose, maltose etc

Polysaccharides are the largest and insoluble form of carbohydrates. They are cellulose, starch, glycogen etc.

Lipids(triglycerides) are solid fats or series of repeated fats at room temperature, they are insoluble in water both soluble in some organic solvents. They are also composed of glycerides (3 molecules). Its structure is composed of two parts, the soluble part composing of the -COOH group and the insoluble part that can be saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon chain

Saturated fats - CH3(CH2)nCOOH

Their types are phospholipids, glycolipids etc

Proteins are polymers of peptides called polypeptides. The bond linking the structure together is called a peptide bond (-CONH-). They form chains of amino acid.

There are 4 levels of protein structures and they are

The primary structure defines the basic straight chain structure of an amino acid. They form the basis of genetic mutation.

Secondary structure involves the folding of this chain into alpha helix or beta pleated.

Tertiary structure is a 3-D structure that involves the hydrophobic and Hydrophilic parts pf the structure. The hydrophobic part apreads outwards while the hydrophyllic parts curve inwards by the action of van der waals forces.

Tertiary structure in this case is the example of the Haemoglobin

Nucleic acids is the building block for RNA and DNA (ribo- and Deoxyribonucleic acid). This is composed of a nitrogenous base which can either be purine or pyrimidine bases, a ribose sugar (5- Carbon sugar and phosphate group

The bond holding the nucleotides together is called phosphodiester bond.
