Which compound has the highest boiling point? Explain your reasoning. CH4 or CH3CH3

Physics

kogti [31]3 years ago

The bigger molecule has more interactions and hence the higher b.p. CH3CH2OCH2CH3 is a bigger molecule than CH4 and CH3CH3, so has more dispersion forces. It also has dipole-dipole forces due to the polarised C-O bonds. CH3OH and CH3CH2OH have hydrogen bonds due to the very electronegative O atom bonded to the H atom

God bless

Answer:

The correct answer t is ;CH_4 has a lower mass compared to CH-3CH-3 which leads to a higher boiling point.

Explanation:

Boiling point of alkanes increases with increase number of carbon atoms in the chain.

This is because along with increase in carbon atom molar mass of alkane also increases by which surface area of molecule increases which further results in increase in weak vander wall forces among the molecule. Due to this molecules associates strongly with each other and boils at high temperature

A 15.0 kilogram cart initially traveling at 2.0 meters per second east accelerates uniformly at 0.75 meter per second squared ea
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since this is not parabolic motion, it is one-dimensional motion. Very simple. What we are given is

mass: 15.0 kg

initial velocity: 2.0 m/s

acceleration: .75 m/s/s

time: 6.0 seconds

Since we are looking for final velocity, the equation we need for this is

v = v0 + at that says final velocity is equal to the initial velocity plus the acceleration of the object times how long it travels. We don't have a need for the mass here at all.

v=2.0\frac{m}{s}+.75\frac{m}{s^2}(6.0s)

Notice that one of the seconds labels to the right of the plus sign cancel out, leaving us with like units...which we HAVE to have if we want to add.

Simplifying a bit gives us

v = 2.0 m/s + 4.5 m/s so

v = 6.5 m/s

A ball is lodged in a hole in the floor near the outside edge of a merry-go-round that is turning at constant speed. Which kinem
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is given that the ball is lodged in a hole in the floor of merry-go-round that is running at a constant speed.

Now the ball is moving a vertical circular motion  

The position of the ball changes w.r.t to the center as it moves in a circular path i.e. vectorially it changes but its magnitude will remain the same.  

The velocity of the ball is the same as merry-go-round so its magnitude remains the same but its direction will change continuously.

As the ball is moving in a circular path so a centripetal acceleration will acts towards the center so its value will be continuously changing.
