Answer:

H2<Ne<O2<NH3

Explanation:

Intermolecular forces refer to the force of attraction between molecules of a substance in any given state of matter whether solid, liquid or gas. Molecules in a substance must be held together by intermolecular forces of attraction. The magnitude of these intermolecular forces of attraction depends on many factors.

For H2, He and O2, the intermolecular force present in these gases are London forces. As the relative molecular mass of individual gas molecules becomes greater, London forces increases significantly with molecular mass. This explains the sequence shown in the answer.

NH3 has the strongest intermolecular interaction because it contains hydrogen bonds since nitrogen is an electronegative element. This a greater intermolecular interaction than dispersion forces.

Which of the following correctly describes a compound?
Nutka1998 [239]

A compound is a pure substance formed by the chemical combination of two or more different elements.


A compound may be splitted into simpler substances by chemical reactions, and has different properties to those of the elements that form it.


The composition of a compound is fixed: every piece of a compound has the same kind of atoms, bonded in the same way and proportion.


Some examples of compounds are H₂O, NaCl, H₂O₂, CH₃COOH. As you see, they have a chemical formula which states the kind and number of the atoms that form them.


They are different to mixtures, which are formed by two or more compounds, in a variable proportion, and can be separated by physical media. Some examples of mixtures are the solutions (e.g. NaCl dissolved in H₂O), and some solid mixtures (e.g. a mixture of marbles and sand).

4. Imagine you have a radioactive sample containing both Virtualium and decayed atoms of Virtualium. After analysis, you find it
Romashka [77]

My sample would be 4000 years old because on my graph, I had about 9 Virtualium left at trial 4 so I am guessing that it would be 4000 years old.

Did you know conventional argult culture has increased greenhouse gas emissions, soil erosion, water pollution, and threatened humans health. Let’s stop this from harming our environment and take action about this today. Organic farming has a smaller carbon footprint, conserves and builds soil, replenishes natural ecosystems for cleaner water and air, all with a toxic pesticide residues.

CALCULATOR
suter [353]

Answer: The possible molecular formula will be CO_2

Explanation:

Mass of C= 27.3 g

Mass of O = 72.7 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C =\frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{27.3g}{12g/mole}=2.275moles

Moles of O =\frac{\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}= \frac{72.7g}{16g/mole}=4.544moles

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C = \frac{2.275}{2.275}=1

For O =\frac{4.544}{2.275}=2

The ratio of C : O = 1: 2

Hence the empirical formula is CO_2

The possible molecular formula will be=n\times CO_2

Explain how copper conducts electricity?
gladu [14]

Answer:

Copper is a metal made up of copper atoms closely packed together. As a result, the electrons can move freely through the metal. For this reason, they are known as free electrons. They are also known as conduction electrons because they help copper be a good conductor of heat and electricity.
