Explain how the relative atomic mass and the mass number of elements are different and hence why some elements have relative ato

This is because the relative atomic mass is the sum of the no of protons and neutrons while the atomic no is of the former only. it is not a whole number it is th average weighted masses of the various isotopes of the element multiplied by their corresponding relative abundance. pls thank me and mark me briniest

Which of the following are strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase? A) nitrilesB) esters C) secondary amides D) acid chlori
-Dominant- [34]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Chemical formula of a secondary amide is R'-CONH-R, where R and R' can be same of different alkyl or aryl groups. Here, the hydrogen atom of amide is attached to more electronegative oxygen atom of the C=O group.

Therefore, the hydrogen atom will be more strongly held by the electronegative oxygen atom. As a result, there will be  strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase of secondary amide.

Whereas chemical formula of nitriles is RCN, ester is RCOOR' and acid chlorides are RCOCl. As no hydrogen bonding occurs in any of these compounds because hydrogen atom is not being attached to an electronegative atom.

Thus, we can conclude that secondary amides are strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase.
