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

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

I think that the trend that would be seen in the time column of the data table would be that the number of seconds would increase. I know this because for each flask, the concentration of sodium thiosulfate decreases, since less of it is being mixed with more water. Also, when the concentration of a substance decreases, then the reaction rate also decreases, as there will be fewer collisions with sulfuric acid if there are fewer moles of sodium thiosulfate. When there are fewer collisions in a reaction, the reaction itself will take longer, and so when the sodium thiosulfate is diluted, the reaction takes more time.

<em>I verify this is correct. </em>

What is the mass of an atom that has 9 protons, 11 neutrons, and 10 electrons
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: By looking at the periodic table, you will see that Fluorine has 9 protons. Since the number of electrons equal the number of protons, Fluorine has 9 electrons as well. Meanwhile, it's mass number of 19, minus 10 neutrons, gives you 9 protons or electrons. Hence, the atom would be Fluorine.
