Which member of the following pairs has the larger London dispersion forces?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Virty [35]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

H₂S; CO₂; SiH₄

Explanation:

London dispersion forces are larger in molecules that are large and have more atoms or electrons.

A. H₂O or H₂S

H₂S. S is below O in the Periodic Table, so it is the larger atom. Its electrons are more polarizable.

B. CO₂ or CO

CO₂. CO₂ has more atoms. It is also linear, so the molecules can get close to each other and maximize the attractive forces.

C. CH₄ or SiH₄

CH₄. Si is below C in the Periodic Table, so it is the larger atom. Its electrons are more polarizable.

Calculate the energy change when an electron moves from n=5 to n=7. Explain/show work please.
Korolek [52]

Answer: E = 1.55 ⋅ 10 − 19 J

Explanation:  

The energy transition will be equal to  1.55 ⋅ 10 − 1 J .  

So, you know your energy levels to be n = 5 and n = 3. Rydberg's equation will allow you calculate the wavelength of the photon emitted by the electron during this transition

1 λ  = R ⋅ ( 1 n 2 final  − 1 n 2 initial  ) , where λ - the wavelength of the emitted photon; R

- Rydberg's constant -  1.0974 ⋅ 10 7 m − 1 ; n final - the final energy level - in your case equal to 3; n initial - the initial energy level - in your case equal to 5. So, you've got all you need to solve for  λ , so 1 λ  =

1.0974 ⋅10  7 m − 1 ⋅ (....     −152

Since

10 points !! Which can happen during a physical change?
Sveta_85 [38]
I think that the answer is A because if you think about water for an example. When water turns into ice, it's still technically water, just the molecules are frozen. The water is physically changed. It could also see why you think it is B but I don't think so completely. It doesn't really make sense to me. So I'd choose A. It's definitely not C or D.

For H 3 PO 4 and H 3 BO 3 , does the subscript " of hydrogen in these two formulas seem to result in additional ions in solution
Kay [80]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Let us consider the ionization of these compounds;

H3PO4 ⇔3H^+ + PO4^3-

H3BO3  ⇔3H^+ + BO3^3-

The next to consider is the type of electrolyte the both solution are; the both solutions are weak electrolytes and weak electrolytes do not ionize to a large extent.

The implication of this is that, not so much number of ions is added to the solution due to the poor ionization of these weak electrolytes. Hence, in spite of the subscript of 3, the conductivity of the solution does not significantly improve for the reason stated here quite unlike when strong electrolytes are used.
