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

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Proteins are a class of macromolecules that perform a diverse range of functions for the cell. They help in metabolism by providing structural support and by acting as enzymes, carriers, or hormones. The building blocks of proteins (monomers) are amino acids.

A sample of fluorine contains isotopes with different masses; F-19 and F-18. In the sample 94% of the
zalisa [80]

The relative mass of the sample : 18.94

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The elements in nature have several types of isotopes

Isotopes are atoms whose no-atom has the same number of protons while still having a different number of neutrons.

So Isotopes are elements that have the same Atomic Number (Proton)

Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes

Mass atom X = mass isotope 1 . % + mass isotope 2.%

F-19 = 94% of the sample

F-18 = 100%-94%=6% of the sample

The relative mass :

\tt = 0.94\times 19+0.06\times 18\\\\=18.94

A compound contains only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Combustion of 139.1 g of the compound yields 208.6 g of CO2 and 56.93 g o
Fofino [41]

Answer:

1. Mass of Carbon is 56.89g

2. Mass of Hydrogen is 6.33g

3. Mass of Oxygen is 75.88

Explanation:

The following were obtained from the question.

Mass of the compound = 139.1g

Mass of CO2 produced = 208.6g

Mass of H2O produced = 56.93

1. Determination of mass of Carbon (C). This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of CO2 = 12 + (2x16) = 44g/mol

Mass of C = 12/44 x 208.6

Mass of C = 56.89g

2. Determination of the mass of Hydrogen (H). This is illustrated below:

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

Mass of H = 2/18 x 56.93

Mass of H = 6.33g

3. Determination of the mass of oxygen (O).

This is illustrated below:

Mass of the compound = 139.1g

Mass of C = 56.89g

Mass of H = 6.33g

Mass of O = Mass of compound - (mass of C + Mass of H)

Mass of O = 139.1 - (56.89 + 6.33)

Mass of O = 139.1 - 63.22

Mass of O = 75.88
