Solid NaCl:

  • Ionic bonds.

Solid H₂O:

  • Hydrogen bonds, and
  • Dipole-dipole interactions.
<h3>Explanation</h3>

NaCl is an ionic compound. It contains myriads of Na⁺ ions and Cl⁻. The two types of ions carry opposite charges. They attract each other via electrostatic forces. This type of electrostatic force is known as ionic bonds. Those bonds hold the ions in a gigantic ionic lattice.

H₂O is a covalent compound. Two H atoms are bonded to one O atom in each molecule. The O-H single bond is <em>highly polar</em>. Also, there are two lone pairs of electrons on the central O atom in each molecule. The O-H bond is so polar that the H atom carries a very strong partial positive charge. The H atom would be attracted to lone pairs on the O atom in neighboring H₂O molecules. Hydrogen bonds between the H₂O molecules hold them in place in their solid state.

There are two O-H single bonds in each H₂O molecule. H₂O molecules are V-shaped due to the presence of the two lone pairs on the central oxygen. Dipoles due to each O-H bonds do not line up within the molecule. As a result, H₂O molecules carry <em>non-zero net dipole</em>. They would attract each other by dipole-dipole interactions. That intermolecular force coexists with hydrogen bonds. It adds to the strength of the attractions between H₂O molecules.

babymother [125]
Use the equation d=m/v

your mass or "m" is 78 g

your volume or "v" is 60mL

if you plug those values into the equation it will look like this:

d=78/60
d=1.3g/mL should be what you come up with

How many moles of oxygen are required to react completely with 5 mol C8H18?
Nata [24]

Answer:

62.5 moles of O₂.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂ —> 16CO₂ + 18H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of C₈H₁₈ reacted with 25 moles of O₂.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of O₂ needed to react with 5 moles of C₈H₁₈. This can be obtained as shown below:

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of C₈H₁₈ reacted with 25 moles of O₂.

Therefore, 5 moles of C₈H₁₈ will react with = (5 × 25) / 2 = 62.5 moles of O₂.

Thus, 62.5 moles of O₂ is needed for the reaction.
