Answer:
<em><u>Intermolecular forces determine bulk properties, such as the melting points of solids and the boiling points of liquids. Liquids boil when the molecules have enough thermal energy to overcome the intermolecular attractive forces that hold them together, thereby forming bubbles of vapor within the liquid.</u></em>
Answer:
they are indeed very strong
Answer:
1) After adding 15.0 mL of the HCl solution, the mixture is before the equivalence point on the titration curve.
2) The pH of the solution after adding HCl is 12.6
Explanation:
10.0 mL of 0.25 M NaOH(aq) react with 15.0 mL of 0.10 M HCl(aq). Let's calculate the moles of each reactant.


There is an excess of NaOH so the mixture is before the equivalence point. When HCl completely reacts, we can calculate the moles in excess of NaOH.
NaOH + HCl ⇒ NaCl + H₂O
Initial 2.5 × 10⁻³ 1.5 × 10⁻³ 0 0
Reaction -1.5 × 10⁻³ -1.5 × 10⁻³ 1.5 × 10⁻³ 1.5 × 10⁻³
Final 1.0 × 10⁻³ 0 1.5 × 10⁻³ 1.5 × 10⁻³
The concentration of NaOH is:
![[NaOH]=\frac{1.0 \times 10^{-3} mol }{25.0 \times 10^{-3} L} =0.040M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BNaOH%5D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1.0%20%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-3%7D%20mol%20%7D%7B25.0%20%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-3%7D%20L%7D%20%3D0.040M)
NaOH is a strong base so [OH⁻] = [NaOH].
Finally, we can calculate pOH and pH.
pOH = -log [OH⁻] = -log 0.040 = 1.4
pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 1.4 = 12.6
Answer:
- <u>Cadmium has larger atomic radius than sulfur.</u>
Explanation:
Down a period, atomic radii decrease from left to right due to the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period: when a proton is added the pull of the electrons towards the nucleus is larger, so the size of the atom decreases.
Hence, you can compare the elements that belong to a same period and predict that the atom with lower atomic number (number of protons) will haver larger atomic radius. With that:
- Oxygen and fluorine are in the period 3, being oxygen to the left of fluorine, so oxygen is larger than fluorine.
- Sulfur and chlorine are in the period 4, being sulfur to the left of chlorine, so sulfur is larger than chlorine.
Now see whan happens down a group. Atomic radius increases from top to bottom within a group due to electron shielding. That permits you to compare the size of the elements in a group:
- Fluorine and chlorine are in the same group (17), with chlorine directly below fluorine, so the atomic radius of chlorine is larger than the atomic radius of fluorine.
- Sulfur and oxygen are in the same group (16), with sulfur directlly below oxygen, so sulfur the atomic radius of sulfur is larger than the atocmi radius of oxygen.
So far, you can rank the atomic radius of sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen, in increasing order as:
- O < F < Cl < S, concluding that O, F, and Cl have smaller atomic radius than S.
Cadmiun, Cd, is to the left and below sulfur, so both electron shielding (down a group) and increase of the number of protons (down a period) lead to predict the cadmium has a larger atomic radius than sulfur.
