Weak noncovalent interactions:__________ a. do not include ionic interactions b. always involve water. c. can have a large cumul
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

c. can have a large cumulative effect

Explanation:

Noncovalent interactions between molecules are weaker than covalent interactions. Noncovalent interactions between molecules are of various types which  include van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic interactions or ionic bonding.

van der Waals forces  are weak interactions found in all molecules. They include dipole-dipole interactions - formed due to the differences in the electronegativity of atoms - and the London dispersion forces.

Hydrogen Bonds  results when electrons are shared between hydrogen and a strongly electronegative atoms like fluorine, nitrogen, oxygen. The hydrogen acquires a partial positive charge while the electronegative atom acquires a partial negative. This results in attraction between hydrogen and neighboring electronegative molecules.

Ionic bonds result due to the attraction between groups with opposite electrical charges, for example in common salt between sodium and chloride ions.

Even though these noncovalent interactions are weak, cumulatively, they exert strong effect. For example, the high boiling point of water and the crystal structure of ice are due to hydrogen bonding.

If 15 grams of Carbon dioxide is produced in a chemical reaction, how many grams of Carbon must be consumed in the reaction if w
Nata [24]

4.1g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of carbon dioxide = 15g

Mass of oxygen gas = 11g

Unknown:

Mass of carbon consumed = ?

Solution:

   Equation of the reaction:

                                              C +  O₂   →   CO₂

    To solve this problem from the balanced equation,  we have to use the amount of product formed and work to Carbon. This is because, we are sure of the amount of carbon dioxide formed but the amount of the given oxygen gas used is not precise.

  Number of moles of CO₂ = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + (16 x2) = 44g/mol

   Number of moles of CO₂ = \frac{15}{44} = 0.34mole

From the equation of the reaction;

              1 mole of CO₂  is produced from 1 mole of C

           0.34mole of CO₂  will produce 0.34mole of C

Mass of carbon reacting = number of moles x molar mass = 0.34 x 12 = 4.1g

Contrast the chemical reactivity of potassium lithium and sodium
Colt1911 [192]
Answer is: lithium is the least reactive and potassium is the most reactive of the three alkali elements. 
<span>The </span>reactivity<span> of the alkali metals increases down the group because one valence electron (I group of Periodic system of elements) is farther away from nucleus and attraction force between electron and proton is weaker.</span>
