Answer:
HF has the higher boiling point because HF molecules are more polar. Part B: CHBr3 molecules possess stronger intermolecular interaction due to higher molar mass than CHCl3
Explanation:
Fluorine is more electronegative than chlorine. This implies that HF is more polar and possess stronger hydrogen bonds than HCl molecules.
In part B, the magnitude of dispersion forces depend on molar mass, the greater the molar mass, the greater the magnitude of dispersion forces between molecules, hence CHBr3 has a greater boiling point than CHCl3
C burning coal in a furnace
When there is heat released
A bimolecular reaction can be kinetically first order in behaviour provided one of the reactants is taken in such a large excess that its concentration may hardly change. Such a reactant will not contribute to the order. Thus, a bimolecular reaction will be of first order. These reactions are known as pseudo chemical reactions.
