Consider the substances hydrogen (H2), fluorine (F2), and hydrogen fluoride (HF). Based on their molecular structures, how does

katovenus [111]

Answer:

The boiling point of HF is higher than the boiling point of H2, and it is higher than the boiling point of F2.

Explanation:

In HF, inter- molecule forces will be present between the hydrogen and fluorine atoms. There will be hydrogen bonding present among the hydrogen and fluorine atoms. Hydrogen bonds are strong bonds and hence the boiling point for HF would be high as much energy will be required to break these bonds.

H2 and F2 will only have intra-molecular attractions and there will be no hydrogen bonds present in them. As a result, their boiling point will be lower.

What is the chemical formula for a compound between Li and Br?

natima [27]

LiBr.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Note that the group number in this answer refers to the new IUPAC group number, which ranges from 1 to 18. Counts from the left. Start with the first two column (group 1 and 2), go on to the transition elements (Sc, Ti, etc. in group 3 through 12), and continue with the nonmetals (group 13 through 18).

Li is a group 1 metal. As a metal, it tends to form positive ions ("cations"). Metals in group 1 and 2 are main group metals. The charge on main group metal ions tends to be the same as the group number of the metal. Li is in group 1. The charge on an Li ion will be +1. Formula of the Li ion will be $\text{Li}^{+}$ .

Br is a group 17 nonmetal. As a nonmetal, it tends to form negative ions ("anions"). The charge on nonmetal ions excepting for H tends to equal the group number of the nonmetal minus 18. Br is in group 17. The charge on a Br ion will be 17 - 18 = -1. Formula of the Br ion will be $\text{Br}^{-}$

All the ions in an ionic compound carry charge. However, some of the ions like $\text{Li}^+$ are positive. Others ions like $\text{Br}^{-}$ are negative. Charge on the two types of ions balance each other. As a result, the compound is overall neutral.

1 × (+1) + 1 × (-1) = 0. The positive charge on one $\text{Li}^{+}$ ion balances the negative charge on one $\text{Br}^{-}$ ion. The two ions would pair up at a 1:1 ratio.

The empirical formula for an ionic compound shows all the ions in the compound. Positive ions are written in front of negative ions. $\text{Li}^{+}$ is positive and $\text{Br}^{-}$ is negative. The formula shall also show the simplest ratio between the ions. For the compound between Li and Br, a 1:1 ratio will be the simplest. The "1" subscript in an empirical formula can be omitted. Hence the formula: LiBr.

For a price ceiling to be a binding constraint on the market, the government must set it a above the equilibrium price. b below

beks73 [17]

Answer:

B. Below the equilibrium price

Explanation:Price ceiling is the legal price,impose by The Government or Regulatory agencies above which a product should not be sold. It is also a price control mechanism through which the Government and other Regulatory agencies check the excesses of producers and the middle men(Whole sellers and retailers). The price ceiling has to be fixed below the equilibrium price for it to be binding, because businesses are interested mainly for profit maximization.
