Compare the strength of the intermolecular forces in solids liquids and gases

1 answer:

3 0

Intermolecular forces in solids are strongest than in liquids and gases. Gases have the least strong intermolecular forces. Intermolecular forces are weak and are significant over short distances between molecules (determined by Coulomb’s law). The farther away from the molecules the weaker the intermolecular forces. Since molecules in solids are the closest, the intermolecular force between them as the strongest. Conversely, since gas molecules are farthest apart, the intermolecular forces between them are the weakest.

What is the mass of 6.12 moles of arsenic (As)?

Leokris [45]

Mole = Mass / Molar mass

6.12 moles = Mass / 74.92 g/mol

Mass = 6.12 moles x 74.92 g/mol

Mass = 458.51g

Ethanol is a common laboratory solvent and has a density of 0.789 g/ml. What is the mass, in grams, of 125 ml of ethanol?

olga55 [171]

The density of a material is its unique property by which a unknown material can be identified and also the impurity (if present) in a material can be concluded. Mathematically the density can be expressed as- $\frac{mass}{volume}$ . Thus from the mathematical expression we can say that the density is the mass per unit volume of a material. Here the density of ethanol is given 0.789 g/mL. Thus the weight of the 1 mL ethanol is 0.789g. Thus the weight of the 125 mL of ethanol will be (125×0.789) = 98.625 g.

The compound tyrosine contains 59.66% C, 6.12% H, 7.73% N, and 26.49% O by mass. What is the empirical formula of tyrosine?

Bezzdna [24]

Answer: C9H11O3N

Explanation:

The percentage by mass of each element is divided by its relative atomic mass. The lowest ratio is now observed. Each ratio is now divided by this lowest ratio and approximated to whole numbers. All these are shown in detail in the image attached.
