Define Intermolecular forces

2 answers:

7 0

Inter molecular forces are the forces which mediate interaction between molecules, including forces of attraction or repulsion which act between molecules and other types of neighboring particles, e.g., atoms or ions. Some include Hydrogen bonds and and Metallic bonding.

Intermolecular forces are the forces that happen between molecules. Just like an interstate is a highway that goes between different states, intermolecular forces are forces are forces between different molecules.

Hydrogen bonds are the strongest of the intermolecular forces.

Which phrase is an example of what electrostatic forces hold together?

Andreyy89

Answer:

Cs+ and Cl− in CsCl is an example of electrostatic forces that hold together.

Explanation:

The interaction that occurs between atoms that have an electric charge is called electromagnetic force. When the charges are at rest, the interaction between them is called electrostatic force. This force depends on the distance "r" between the atoms.

Depending on the sign of the charges that interact, electrostatic force can be attractive or repulsive. The electrostatic interaction between charges of the same sign is repulsive (two negative charges or two positive charges), while the interaction between charges of the opposite sign (a negative charge and a positive charge) is attractive. In the case of neutral charges against negative or positive charges, no force is generated.

<u><em>Cs+ and Cl− in CsCl is an example of electrostatic forces that hold together. </em></u>In this example you have a positively charged atom (Cs₊) and a negatively charged atom (Cl₋). As they are opposite charges they will attract.

Calculate the mass of H2OH2O produced by metabolism of 1.6 kgkg of fat, assuming the fat consists entirely of tristearin (C57H11

kakasveta [241]

Answer: 1779.8g of H2O

Explanation:

C57H110O6 + O2 —> CO2 + H20

To calculate the amount of water(H2O) produced by the reaction of 1.6Kg tristearin(C57H110O6) and O2, we must first balance the equation.

To do so, add 2 in front of C57H110O6, 163 in front of O2, 114 in front of CO2 and 110 in front of H2O i.e

2C57H110O6 + 163O2 —> 114CO2 + 110H20

Next, we have to calculate the mass of tristearin(C57H110O6) that reacted and the mass of water produced from the balanced equation. This can be done by:

MM of C57H110O6 = (57x12) + (110x1) + (6x16) = 684 + 110 + 96 = 890g/mol

Mass conc of C57H110O6 = 890 x 2 = 1780g

MM of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass conc of H2O = 110 x 18 = 1980g

Next, we will find the amount of water produced by 1.6Kg(i.e 1600g) of tristearin(C57H110O6). This is done by:

From the equation,

1780g of C57H110O6 produced 1980g of H2O.

Therefore 1600g of C57H110O6 will produce = (1600x1980)/1780 = 1779.8g of H2O

Compounds A and BB are colorless gases obtained by combining sulfur with oxygen. Compound A results from combining 6.00 gg of su

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Mass ratio of sulfur and oxygen in compounds A and B is 3:2 which confirms that the mass ratios in the two compounds are simple multiples of each other

Explanation:

This question seeks to establish/confirm the law of multiple proportions which posits that elements combine to form different substances which are whole number multiples of each other. Best example of this plays out in the formation of several oxides of the same element. Looking at the ratio in which the elements combine in each of the oxides, we can assume that these ratios are simple whole number multiples of each other.

Now back to the question.

In substance A, we have 6 g of sulfur combining with 5.99 g of oxygen

Now, lest us calculate the ratio of the mass of sulfur to that of oxygen = 6g/5.99g = 1

Now let us calculate the mass ratio of sulfur to oxygen in the second compound = 8.6/12.88 = 0.668

Now the ratios in both compounds are 1 to 0.668. 0.668 to fraction is approximately 1/1.5.

So therefore, the ratio we are having would be 1:1/1.5 or 1:0.668

This is same as 1/(1÷1.5) which is 1.5/1 or simply 3/2

This gives a ratio of approximately 1.5 to 1 or 3 to 2

The ratio 3 to 2 indicates that the mass ratios in both com pounds are simple multiples of each other
