Answer:

HOCl is the preferred arrangement.

Explanation:

Hypochlorous acid (HOCl or HClO) is a weak acid that contains Hydrogen, Chlorine and oxygen. Generally both are accurate molecular formulars as hey show the exact number of atoms of elements present in the compound.

However the preferred formular is HOCl. The reason for this is because HOCl implies the molecular structure (that is, how the atoms are bonded to each other). The H is bonded to the O and the O in turn is being bonded to the Cl. HClO on the other hand says nothing about the molecular structure.

Which of these charges has the greatest magnitude
Natalka [10]

Answer:

magnitude means absolute value, so the one that is greastest, like |-7| and |4| even id |-7| is a negative number, but it is still the one farthest away from 0, so |-7| is greater than |4|.

That is the way to find the greatest magnitude, but because I don't know your numbers so I can not answer your question, but this is the way to solve for it.

"The statements in the following multiple choices deal with various aspects of the relationship between vapor pressure and inter
solong [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) false.

NH₃ is more polar molecule than PH₃ so inter-molucular attraction is greater in NH₃ ( hydrogen bond ) . Hence vapour pressure is low for NH₃ .

b ) false .

The average kinetic energy of boiling water molecules is lower on a mountaintop than it is at sea level. It is so because water boils at lower temperture on mountain and kinetic energy of molecules depends upon temperature .

c ) false

vapour pressure depends upon temperature .

d ) True

CCl4 is more volatile than CBr4

e ) false

vapour pressure increases as temperature increases.
