Answer:

A) increasing dispersion interactions

Explanation:

Polarizability allows gases containing atoms or nonpolar molecules (for example,  to condense. In these gases, the most important kind of interaction produces <em>dispersion forces</em>, <em>attractive forces that arise as a result of temporary dipoles induced in atoms or molecules.</em>

<em>Dispersion forces</em>, which are also called <em>London forces</em>, usually <u>increase with molar mass because molecules with larger molar mass tend to have more electrons</u>, and <u>dispersion forces increase in strength with the number of electrons</u>. Furthermore, larger molar mass often means a bigger atom whose electron distribution is more easily disturbed because the outer electrons are less tightly held by the nuclei.

Because the noble gases are all nonpolar molecules, <u>the only attractive intermolecular  forces present are the dispersion forces</u>.

Be(OH)2 is solid why?​
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

no it's not solid rather it's an aqueous

Explanation:

B/c Barium hydroxide is used in analytical chemistry for the titration of weak acids, particularly organic acids. Its clear aqueous solution is guaranteed to be free of carbonate, unlike those of sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide, as barium carbonate is insoluble in water.

The decomposition of dinitrogen pentaoxide has an activation energy of 102 kj/mol and \delta ? h°rxn = + 55 kj/mol. what is the
posledela
A positive cahnge of enthalpy, ΔH rxn = + 55 kJ/mol, for the forward reaction means that the reaction is endothermic, i.e. the reactants absorb energy and the products are higher in energy.

Activation energy is the difference in the energy level of the reactants and the peak in the potential energy diagram (the energy of the transition state).

For an endothermic reaction, the products will be closer in energy to the transition state than what the reactans will be; so, the activation energy of the reversed reaction is lower than the activation energy of the forward reaction.

Activation energy of reverse and forward reactions is related by:

Activation energy of reverse rxn = Activation energy of forward rxn - ΔH rxn

=> Activiation energy of reverse rxn = 102 kJ/mol - 55 kJ/mol = 47 kJ/mol

Answer: 47 kJ/mol
