Nacl aq. is the best conductor of electricity as in aques state the ions become lose or mobile which are free to move and conduct electricity.

Option B: NaCl (aq)

There are two important factors that make a compound a good conductor of electricity that is its state and number of charge particles.

Here, the substances in solid state do not conduct electricity due to unavailability of free ions as movement of free ions in a substance is responsible for electricity conduction.

Therefore, NaCl(s) and C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}(s) do not conduct electricity.

Now, out of NaCl(aq) and and C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}(aq), NaCl(aq) is a good conductor of electricity because in aqueous solution, NaCl completely dissociates into Na^{+} and Cl^{-} ions. Due to the presence of these ions it is good conductor of electricity.

The intermolecular forces present in CH 3NH 2 include which of the following? I. dipole-dipole II. ion-dipole III. dispersion IV
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

I. dipole-dipole

III. dispersion

IV. hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

Intermolecular forces are weak attraction force joining nonpolar and polar molecules together.

London Dispersion Forces are weak attraction force joining non-polar and polar molecules together. e.g O₂, H₂,N₂,Cl₂ and noble gases. The attractions here can be attributed to the fact that a non -polar molecule sometimes becomes polar because the constant motion of its electrons may lead to an uneven charge distribution at an instant.

Dispersion forces are the weakest of all electrical forces that act between atoms and molecules. The force is responsible for liquefaction or solidification of non-polar substances such as noble gas an halogen at low temperatures.

Dipole-Dipole Attractions are forces of attraction existing between polar molecules ( unsymmetrical molecules) i.e molecules that have permanent dipoles such as HCl, CH3NH2 . Such molecules line up such that the positive pole of one molecule attracts the negative pole of another.

Dipole - Dipole attractions are more stronger than the London dispersion forces but weaker than the attraction between full charges carried by ions in ionic crystal lattice.

Hydrogen Bonding is a dipole-dipole intermolecular attraction which occurs when hydrogen is covalently bonded to highly electronegative elements such as nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine. The highly electronegative elements have very strong affinity for electrons. Hence, they attracts the shared pair of electrons in the covalent bonds towards themselves, leaving a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom and a partial negative charge on the electronegative atom ( nitrogen in the case of CH3NH2 ) . This attractive force is know as hydrogen bonding.

A galvanic cell at a temperature of 42°C is powered by the following redox reaction:
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

1.99V

Explanation:

Balanced redox reaction equation:

3CU2+(aq) + 2Al(s) ------> 3Cu(s) + 2Al3+(aq)

E°cell= E°cathode- E°anode

E°cell= 0.34-(-1.66)

E°cell= 2.0V

From Nernst equation:

E= E°cell - 0.0592/n logQ

E= 2.0 - 0.0592/6 log [3.43]/[1.63]

E= 2.0- 0.0032

E= 1.99V

Which of the following has the greatest mass? (1pt)
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

C) 5 moles of Argon (Ar)

Explanation:

5mol Na x 22.990g Na/ 1 mol Na = 114.95g Na

5mol P x 30.974g P/ 1 mol P = 154.87g P

5mol Ar x 39.948g Ar/ 1 mol Ar = 199.74g Ar

Therefore Ar has the greatesr mass.

A constant-volume calorimeter was calibrated by carrying out a reaction known to release 3.50 kJ of heat in 0.200 L of solution
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The change in internal energy is - 1.19 kJ

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Heat released = 3.5 kJ

Volume calorimeter = 0.200 L

Heat release results in a 7.32 °C

Temperature rise for the next experiment = 2.49 °C

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate Ccalorimeter

Qcal = ccal * ΔT ⇒ 3.50 kJ = Ccal *7.32 °C

Ccal = 3.50 kJ /7.32 °C = 0.478 kJ/°C

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate energy released

Qcal = 0.478 kJ/°C *2.49 °C = 1.19 kJ

<u>Step 4:</u> Calculate change in internal energy

ΔU =  Q + W       W = 0  (no expansion)

Qreac = -Qcal = - 1.19 kJ

ΔU = - 1.19 kJ

The change in internal energy is - 1.19 kJ
