Which of the following molecules would have the strongest London Dispersion Force?

Chemistry
1 answer:
weeeeeb [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: D

Explanation:

London forces become stronger as the atom in question becomes larger, and to a smaller degree for large molecules. [4] This is due to the increased polarizability of molecules with larger, more dispersed electron clouds. The polarizability is a measure of ease with which electrons can be redistributed; a large polarizability implies that the electrons are more easily redistributed. This trend is exemplified by the halogens (from smallest to largest: F 2 , Cl2 , Br 2 , I 2 ). The same increase of dispersive attraction occurs within and between organic molecules in the order RF<RCL<RBr<RI, or with other more polarizable heteroatoms. [5] Fluorine and chlorine are

gases at room temperature, bromine is a liquid, and iodine is a solid. The London forces are thought to be arise from the motion of electrons.

Distinguish between deliquescence and efflorescence. ​
netineya [11]

Explanation:

Deliquescent substances are solids that absorb moisture from the atmosphere until they dissolve in the absorbed water and form solutions. Efflorescent: Efflorescent substances are solids that can undergo spontaneous loss of water from hydrated salts.

What is the oxidation state of Hg in Hg2Cl2?​
Anna [14]

Answer:

+1

Explanation:

Electrochemistry. In oxidation–reduction (redox) reactions, electrons are transferred from one A redox reaction is balanced when the number of electrons lost by the reductant Hg(l)∣Hg2Cl2(s)∣Cl−(aq) ∥ Cd2+(aq)∣Cd(s).

As is evident from the Stock number, mercury has an oxidation state of +1. This makes sense, as chlorine usually has an oxidation state of -1.

If a sample containing 2.00 mL of nitroglycerin (density=1.592g/mL) is detonated, how many total moles of gas are produced?
fgiga [73]

The overall balanced chemical reaction for this is:

Detonation of Nirtoglycerin <span>
4 C3H5N3O9 --> 12 CO2 + 6 N2 + O2 + 10 H2O </span>

 

Therefore:

2.00 mL x 1.592 g/mL = 3.184 g <span>
3.184 g / 227.1 /mol = 0.0140 mol nitroglycerin 
4 moles --> 12 + 6 + 1 + 10 = 29 moles of gas 
<span>0.0140 mol x (29/4) = 0.1017 moles of gases or (0.102 mol) </span></span>

A sample of chlorine gas occupies a volume of 707 ml at 2.90 atm. What is the new pressure in torr if the volume is compressed t
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

The new pressure is 3850 torr.  

Explanation:

The relation between volume and pressure is inverse as per Boyle's law. Its mathematical form is given by :

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

Here,

P_1=2.9\ atm

V_1=707\ mL

V_2=0.533\ L

Let P_2 is the new pressure. So using Boyle's law we get :

P_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{V_2}\\\\P_2=\dfrac{2.9\times 707}{0.533}\\\\P_2=3846.71\ \text{torr}

or

P_2=3850\ \text{torr}

So, the new pressure is 3850 torr.
