Answer:

Order of increasing strength of intermolecular attraction:

CH_3COOH > Cl_2 > CH_4 > Ar

Explanation:

CH_3COOH can form hydrogen bond as H atom is attached with electronegative atom O.

Rest three, Cl_2,  CH_4,  Ar are non-polar molecules.

In non-polar molecules, van der Waal's intermolecular forces of attractions exist. Hydrogen bonding is stronger intermolecular attraction then van der Waal's intermolecular forces of attraction, hence, CH_3COOH has strongest intermolecular attractions.

Ar will have least intermolecular attraction, as it behaves almost as ideal gas and there is no intermolecular attraction exist between molecules of ideal gases.

Molecular size and mass of Cl_2 is high as compared to CH_4.

van der Waals intermolecular forces of attraction increases with increase in size.

Therefore,

Order of increasing strength of intermolecular attraction will be:

CH_3COOH > Cl_2 > CH_4 > Ar

Of the choices listed in the question:

CH4 < Ar< CH3COOH < Cl2
CH3COOH < Cl2 < Ar < CH4
Ar < Cl2 < CH4 < CH3COOH
Cl2 < CH3COOH < Ar < CH4
CH4 < Ar < Cl2 < CH3COOH <-- because CH4, Ar and Cl2 are non-polar you use their molecular weight to determine which one would have greater intermolecular attraction, and lastly CH3COOH has hydrogen bond intermolecular attraction

Write a covalent compound formed by nitrogen and oxygen. what is its Lewis structure​
iragen [17]

Answer:

Two covalent bonds form between the two oxygen atoms because oxygen requires two shared electrons to fill its outermost shell. Nitrogen atoms will form three covalent bonds (also called triple covalent) between two atoms of nitrogen because each nitrogen atom needs three electrons to fill its outermost shell.

In a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen gases, the mole fraction of nitrogen is 0.333. If the partial pressure of hydrogen in the
notka56 [123]

Answer:

P_T=112.4torr

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since these problems about gas mixtures are based off Dalton's law in terms of mole fraction, partial pressure and total pressure, we can write the following for hydrogen, we are given its partial pressure:

P_{H_2}=x_{H_2}*P_T

And can be solved for the total pressure as follows:

P_T=\frac{P_{H_2}}{x_{H_2}}

However, we first calculate the mole fraction of hydrogen by subtracting that of nitrogen to 1 due to:

x_{H_2}+x_{N_2}=1\\\\x_{H_2}=1-0.333=0.667

Then, we can plug in to obtain the total pressure:

P_T=\frac{75.0torr}{0.667}\\\\P_T=112.4torr

Regards!

How many grams of aluminum will be deposited by 0.1F? (Al=27) a.0.3g b. 0.9. c. 9.0g. d. 2.7g<br>​
andrezito [222]

Based on the charge on the aluminium ion, 0.9 g of aluminium are deposited by 0.1 F of electricity.

<h3>What is electrolysis?</h3>

Electrolysis is the decomposition of a substance known as an electrolyte when electric current is passed through it.

The mass and hence moles an electrolyte deposited when current is passed through it depends on the charge on the ion.

Aluminium ion has a charge of +3 and requires 3F of electricity to deposit 1 mole or 27 g of aluminium

0.1 F will discharge = 0.1/3 × 27 g of aluminium

mass of aluminium deposited = 0.9 g of aluminium.

Therefore, 0.9 g of aluminium are deposited by 0.1 F of electricity.

If 60 grams of a liquid takes up 120ml how dense is the liquid
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

<h2>Density = 0.5 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

<h3>Density =  \frac{mass}{volume}</h3>

From the question

mass = 60 g

volume = 120 mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve

That's

<h3>Density =  \frac{60}{120}  \\  =  \frac{1}{2}</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>Density = 0.5 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

Why doesn't water change into ice at 10 degree Celsius?
Dvinal [7]
