If the exact outer limit of an isolated atom cannot be measured, what criterion can we use to determine atomic radii? What is th

e difference between a covalent radius and a metallic radius?

Answer:

Calculate the atomic radii of two touching or overlapping atoms.

Explanation:

No doubt, we can't find the atomic boundary of a single atom, but when atoms are in the form of pairs it becomes very easy to measure the atomic radii of two and then dividing it by 2 to get an estimate of atomic radius of a single atom.

It is also called as covalent radius which is half of the total inter-nuclear distance between two same bonded atoms (Homo-nuclear).

If two adjacent mettalic ions are joined by such pairing then the same half of the distance between the nucleus is termed as metallic radii.

What type(s) of intermolecular forces are expected between ch3ch2ch2ch2ch2oh molecules?
notka56 [123]

Answer : Hydrogen-bonding, Dipole-dipole attraction and London-dispersion force.

Explanation :

The given molecule is, CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2CH_2OH

Three types of inter-molecular forces are present in this molecule which are Hydrogen-bonding, Dipole-dipole attraction and London-dispersion force.

  • Hydrogen-bonding : when the partial positive end of hydrogen is bonded with the partial negative end of another molecule like, oxygen, nitrogen, etc.
  • Dipole-dipole attraction : When the partial positively charged part of the molecule is interact with the partial negatively charged part of the molecule. For example : In case of HCl.
  • London-dispersion force : This force is present in all type of molecule whether it is a polar or non-polar, ionic or covalent. For example : In case of Br-Br , F-F, etc

Hydrogen-bonding is present between the oxygen and hydrogen molecule.

Dipole-dipole forces is present between the carbon and oxygen molecule.

London-dispersion forces is present between the carbon and carbon molecule.

djyliett [7]

Answer:

  • <u>1. Since the temperature of your body is higher than the temperature of the air and of the water, heat will flow from your body to the air and pool.</u>

<u></u>

  • <u>2. The pool feels cooler than air because the water can absorb heat energy faster than the air, due to liquids are better conductors than gases.</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

Heat always flows from warmer substances to colder ones.

The normal body temperature is 98ºF. Therefore, the heat will flow from your body to the air and pool, which are at a lower temperature of 80ºF. In both cases, you will lose thermal energy and the external parts of your body will cool down.

The difference between both cases is in the heat conduction capacity of both air and water.

Liquids (and solids) are better <em>thermal conductors </em>than gases because the conduction of heat occurs as result of the direct contact between the particles of matter: the atoms or molecules in hot matter vibrate faster than their neighbors and transmit them kinetic energy by direct contact.

Therefore, the liquid water in the swimming pool, at the same temperature than the air, will be able to absorb more heat in the same time from the body.

In conclusion, the body will cool down faster in water than in air which is why the pool feels cooler than air.
