London Dispersion forces

Explanation:

London dispersion forces exists between the molecules of CO₂. These are weak attractions found between non-polar (and polar) molecules(symmetrical molecules).

This attraction sometimes makes non-polar molecules polar.
This is because of the uneven charge distribution caused by the constant motion of its electrons.
A temporary dipole or instantaneous dipole induces the neighboring molecules to become distorted and forms dipoles as well.
The forces are the weakest of all electrical forces.

Why is red the last color seen at sunset?

Dimas [21]

Within the visible range of light, red<span> light waves are scattered the least by atmospheric gas molecules. So at sunrise and </span>sunset, when the sunlight travels a long path through the atmosphere to reach our eyes, the blue light has been mostly removed, leaving mostly red<span> and yellow light remaining.</span>

2. What is the mass of 5.33 x 10 moles of aluminum hydroxide?

bearhunter [10]

<h3>Answer:</h3><h3>1865.5g</h3><h3>Explanation:</h3><h3 /><h2> first the chemical formular for ammonium hydroxide is NH4OH</h2><h3>its molarmass is given as N=14H=1O=16 </h3><h3> so we have 14 +1(2) +16+1 =35</h3><h2>also no of moles = mass / molarmass</h2><h3> we have 5.33×10 = mass/35 </h3><h2>therefore mass = 35 ×5.33×10 = 1865.5g</h2>

Fossil fuels are considered to be __________ resources because they are consumed ___________ than they form.

mixas84 [53]

Fossil fuels are formed by the deposition of organic matter. It is a nonrenewable resource as they deplete faster as they are produced. Thus, option B is correct.

<h3>What is non-renewable resources?</h3><h3 />

A non-renewable resource is exhaustible and takes a longer time to get produced as they include the accumulation of organic matter over thousands of years.

Fossil fuels take a very long time to get replenished and have a slower rate of formation as compared to consumption. It includes petrol, coal, diesel, natural gases, etc.

Therefore, option B. nonrenewable and far faster are the correct blanks.

A compound contains 1.2 g of carbon, 3.2 g of oxygen and 0.2g of hydrogen. Find the formula of the compound

Karolina [17]

Answer:

The empirical formula of the compound is $C_{0.504}HO_{1.008}$ .

Explanation:

We need to determine the empirical formula in its simplest form, where hydrogen ( $H$ ) is scaled up to a mole, since it has the molar mass, and both carbon ( $C$ ) and oxygen ( $O$ ) are also scaled up in the same magnitude. The empirical formula is of the form:

$C_{x}HO_{y}$

Where $x$ , $y$ are the number of moles of the carbon and oxygen, respectively.

The scale factor ( $r$ ), no unit, is calculated by the following formula:

$r = \frac{M_{H}}{m_{H}}$ (1)

Where:

$m_{H}$ - Mass of hydrogen, in grams.

$M_{H}$ - Molar mass of hydrogen, in grams per mole.

If we know that $M_{H} = 1.008\,\frac{g}{mol}$ and $m_{H} = 0.2\,g$ , then the scale factor is:

$r = \frac{1.008}{0.2}$

$r = 5.04$

The molar masses of carbon ( $M_{C}$ ) and oxygen ( $M_{O}$ ) are $12.011\,\frac{g}{mol}$ and $15.999\,\frac{g}{mol}$ , then, the respective numbers of moles are: ( $r = 5.04$ , $m_{C} = 1.2\,g$ , $m_{O} = 3.2\,g$ )
