Explanation:

The weak intermolecular forces which can arise either between nucleus and electrons or between electron-electron are known as dispersion forces. These forces are also known as London dispersion forces and these are temporary in nature.

Therefore, more is the surface area occupied by the carbon chain more will be the dispersion forces present in it. Hence, less is the surface area occupied by a molecule less will be the dispersion forces present in it.  

Hence, the given molecules are organized from largest to smallest dispersion forces as follows.

CH_{3}CH(CH_{3})C(CH_{3})_{2}CH_{2}CH_{3} > CH_{3}CH_{2}(CH_{2})_{4}CH_{2}CH_{3} > CH_{3}CH_{2}CH_{2}CH_{2}CH_{3} > CH_{3}C(CH_{3})2CH_{3} > CH_{3}CH_{2}CH_{3} > CH4

Which formula represents a saturated hydrocarbon
GenaCL600 [577]
Saturated hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain only single bonds between the carbon atoms. They are known to be the simplest organic compounds. They are termed as such because they are saturated with water. Examples are the alkanes (ethane, methane, propane, butane, etc.).

Examination of the first few successive ionization energies for a given element usually reveals a large jump between two ionizat
gladu [14]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Ionization energy refers to the energy required to remove an electron from an atom. Metals have lower ionization energy than non metals since ionization energy increases across a period.

One thing that we must have in mind is that it takes much more energy to remove an electron from an inner filled shell than it takes to remove an electron from an outermost incompletely filled shell.

Now let us consider the case of magnesium which has two outermost electrons. Between IE2 and IE3 we have now moved to an inner filled shell(IE3 refers to removal of electrons from the inner second shell) and a lot of energy is required to remove an electron from this inner filled shell, hence the jump.

For aluminium having three outermost electrons, there is a jump between IE3 and IE4 because IE4 deals with electron removal from a second inner filled shell and a lot of energy is involved in the process hence the jump.

Hence a jump occurs each time electrons are removed from an inner filled shell.

How many moles of methane (CH4) is<br> 6.70 x 1022 atoms of methane?
suter [353]

Answer:

0.1113  mol

Explanation:

Data Given:

no. of atoms of CH₄= 6.70 x 10²² atoms

no. of moles of methane (CH₄) = ?

Solution:

we will find no. of moles of methane (CH₄)

Formula used

          no. of moles = no. of atoms / Avogadro's number

Where

Avogadro's number = 6.022 x 10²³

Put values in above equation

         no. of moles = 6.70 x 10²² atoms / 6.022 x 10²³ (atoms/mol)

         no. of moles = 0.1113  mol

So,

There are 0.1113 moles of methane.
