Which molecule will undergo only london dispersion forces when interacting with other molecules of the same kind?

vfiekz [6]

Explanation:

London dispersion forces will form between non-polar molecules(polar ) that are symmetrical like O₂, H₂, Cl₂ and noble gases.

The attraction here is because non-polar molecules becomes polar due to the constant motion of its electrons.
This lead to an uneven charge distribution at an instant.
A temporary dipole or instantaneous dipole forms.
The temporary dipole can induce neighboring molecules to be distorted and forms dipoles as well.
This forms london dispersion forces.

Answer:

The radius of the gold nucleus is 7.1x10⁻¹⁵m

Explanation:

The nearest distance is:

$r=\frac{kze^{2} }{mpV^{2} }$ (eq. 1)

Where

z = atomic number of gold = 79

e = electron charge = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹C

k = electrostatic constant = 9x10⁹Nm²C²

energy of the particle = 32 MeV = 5.12x10⁻¹²J

At the potential energy is zero, all the energy will be kinetic energy:

$E_{k} =\frac{1}{2} m V^{2}$

Where

m = 4 mp = mass of proton

$5.12x10^{-12} =\frac{1}{2} *4*m_{p}* V^{2} \\m_{p}* V^{2} = 2.56x10^{-12}$

Replacing in equation 1

$r=\frac{9x10^{9}*79*(1.6x10^{-19})^{2} }{2.56x10^{-12} } =7.1x10^{-15} m$

A house brick has a volume of 1900 cm³ and a weight in air of 80N.What is its apparent weight in water?The density of water is 1

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

61 N

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the mass of the brick when placed in water. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume of brick = 1900 cm³

Density of water = 1 g/cm³

Mass of brick in water =…?

Density = mass / volume

1 = mass of brick in water / 1900

Cross multiply

Mass of brick in water = 1 × 1900

Mass of brick in water = 1900 g

Next, we shall convert 1900 g to Kg.

1000 g = 1 Kg

Therefore,

1900 g = 1900 g × 1 Kg / 1000 g

1900 g = 1.9 Kg

Next, we shall determine the weight in water. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 1.9 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Weight (W) =?

W = m × g

W = 1.9 × 10

W = 19 N

Thus, the weight of the brick in water is 19 N.

Finally, we shall determine the apparent weight of the brick in water. This can be obtained as follow:

Weight in air = 80 N

Weight in water = 19 N

Apparent weight =?

Apparent weight = weight in air – weight in water

Apparent weight = 80 – 19

Apparent weight = 61 N
