Answer:

Water has the strongest inter-molecular forces.

Explanation:

As given that water and ammonia both are polar however water is liquid and ammonia is a gas at room temperature.

Let us understand the difference between solid, liquid and gas.

The three states differ from each other due to

a) inter-molecular forces of attraction (the force of attraction between two molecules of same or different substance).

b) the thermal energy of molecules.

In case of solids the inter-molecular forces are maximum and the thermal energy is least. So the molecules are held strong with each other and does not move here and there.

In case of liquid and gas, the inter-molecular forces of attraction are stronger in liquid as compared to gas while thermal energy of gas molecules is more.

In water, the oxygen atom is more electro-negative than nitrogen of ammonia. This makes water molecular more polar.

If gas is truly to be classified as a form of matter this means it can be measured. What form of gas can be measured?
juin [17]

Answer:

Gas is sometimes measured in cubic feet at a temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit and an atmospheric pressure of 14.7 pounds per square inch. Gas production from wells is discussed in terms of thousands or millions of cubic feet (Mcf and MMcf). Resources and reserves are calculated in trillions of cubic feet (Tcf).

What is the name of the scientist who discovered that atoms have positive charges
sukhopar [10]
Atoms have positive charges? or nuclei? Rutherford conducted the infamous gold foil experiment from which he concluded an atom mist contain a dense positively charged part with a orbiting shell of negative parts. That model was refined many times to form the current model of the atom.

Answer:

Alright, the first thing we have to do is to balance the chemical equation

2Na3N -----> 6Na + 1N2

We have 60g of Na3N, we convert them into moles by dividing the mass of the compound by the molar mass.

Molar mass of Na3N = (22.98 x 3) + (14) = 82.94g/mol

  <u>60</u>          =  0.72341451651 moles of Na3N

82.94

Now because we did the balanced equation, we know the mole to mole ratio of Na3N to N2 would be 2:1, so in order to get the moles of N2 you have to divide the moles of Na3N by 2

0.72341451651 moles/2 = 0.361707258 moles of N2

Now that we have the moles of N2, we just have to determine the mass of it in grams. In order to do that, just multiply the moles by the molar mass of N2 (28g/mol)

0.361707258 x 28 = <u>10.13g of N2</u>

<u>Therefore the decomposition of 60g of Na3N would result in 10.13g of N2 (nitrogen gas)</u>
