What is the difference between intermolecular forces and intramolecular forces
MrMuchimi

Answer:

Intramolecular forces are the forces that hold atoms together within a molecule. Intermolecular forces are forces that exist between molecules.

Explanation:

Examples: Intermolecular forces are categorized into dipole-dipole forces, London dispersion forces and hydrogen bonding forces.

Intramolecular forces are categorized into covalent, ionic and metal bonds

Which of the following best describes an advantage of cloning? Can prevent genetic diseases Can increase genetic diversity Helps
s344n2d4d5 [400]
The statement that best describes an advantage of cloning is that it can prevent genetic diseases. DNA cloning is a term used in recombinant DNA technology happens when a DNA strand belonging to one organism is transmitted into a particular type of genetic element having the capacity to self replicate. DNA cloning was developed to offer solutions related to healthcare and medical issues. Illnesses occur mostly because our body fails to produce essential proteins in ample amount is needed, these problems and other inherited problems may be solved using DNA cloning.

What is the pOH of a 0.150 M solution of potassium nitrite? (Ka HNO2 = 4.5 x 10−4 )
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

11.9 is the pOH of a 0.150 M solution of potassium nitrite.

Explanation:

Solution :  Given,

Concentration (c) = 0.150 M

Acid dissociation constant = k_a=4.5\times 10^{-4}

The equilibrium reaction for dissociation of HNO_2 (weak acid) is,

                           HNO_2+H_2O\rightleftharpoons NO_2^-+H_3O^+

initially conc.         c                       0         0

At eqm.              c(1-\alpha)                c\alpha        c\alpha

First we have to calculate the concentration of value of dissociation constant (\alpha ).

Formula used :

k_a=\frac{(c\alpha)(c\alpha)}{c(1-\alpha)}

Now put all the given values in this formula ,we get the value of dissociation constant (\alpha ).

4.5\times 10^{-4}=\frac{(0.150\alpha)(0.150\alpha)}{0.150(1-\alpha)}

4.5\times 10^{-4} - 4.5\times 10^{-4}\alpha =0.150\alpha ^2

0.150\alpha ^2+4.5\times 10^{-4}\alpha-4.5\times 10^{-4}=0

By solving the terms, we get

\alpha=0.0533

No we have to calculate the concentration of hydronium ion or hydrogen ion.

[H^+]=c\alpha=0.150\times 0.0533=0.007995 M

Now we have to calculate the pH.

pH=-\log [H^+]

pH=-\log (0.007995 M)

pH=2.097\approx 2.1

pH + pOH = 14

pOH =14 -2.1 = 11.9

Therefore, the pOH of the solution is 11.9
