Chemistry

Answer:

The correct answer is option A, Dispersion Force

Explanation:

The molecules and atoms of n-pentane are non-polar and thus there is no chance of any dipole –dipole interaction between the molecules of n –pentane. There exists repulsion between the electrons moving in near to each other in respective orbits. The molecule of n-pentane processes instantaneous dipole moment  due to instantaneous distribution of electrons and since the molecules are very close to each other instantaneous dipole moment   in one molecule induces instantaneous dipole moment   in the other molecule and thus there exists an attractive force between the non polar molecules of n –pentane  known as Dispersion Forces

It wouldn’t be hydrogen bonding because hydrogen bonding takes place with highly electronegative elements like N,O & F being the most electronegative. It’s not ion - dipole because there is no ion present. So I’m sure it is dispersion

What are molecules, and how are the properties of molecules different from the atoms they come from? Give an example.
goldenfox [79]

Molecule, a group of two or more atoms that form the smallest identifiable unit into which a pure substance can be divided and still retain the composition and chemical properties of that substance.

While Atoms are single neutral particles,

Molecules are neutral particles made of two or more atoms bonded together.

Exaplmes for molecules

H2O (water)

N2 (nitrogen)

O3 (ozone)

CaO (calcium oxide)

C6H12O6 (glucose, a type of sugar)

NaCl (table salt

And examples for atoms

Neon (Ne)

Hydrogen (H)

Argon (Ar)

Iron (Fe)

Calcium (Ca)

Deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen that has one proton and one neutron.

Plutonium (Pu)

F-, a fluorine anion.

Why do electrons enter the 4s orbital before entering the 3D orbital
garri49 [273]

The 3d sublevel is not filled until after the 4s sublevel, because the 3d sublevel has more energy than the 4s sublevel, and less energy than the 4p sublevel. (:

Cytoplasm is a mixture of what two things?
alexira [117]

In cell biology, the cytoplasm is the material or protoplasm within a living cell, excluding the cell nucleus. It comprises cytosol (the gel-like substance enclosed within the cell membrane) and the organelles – the cell's internal sub-structures. All of the contents of the cells of prokaryote organisms (such as bacteria, which lack a cell nucleus) are contained within the cytoplasm. Within the cells of eukaryote organisms the contents of the cell nucleus are separated from the cytoplasm, and are then called thenucleoplasm. The cytoplasm is about 80% water and usually colorless.[1]

It is within the cytoplasm that most cellular activities occur, such as many metabolic pathways including glycolysis, and processes such as cell division. The concentrated inner area is called the endoplasm and the outer layer is called the cell cortex or theectoplasm.

Movement of calcium ions in and out of the cytoplasm is a signaling activity for metabolic processes.[2]

In plants, movement of the cytoplasm around vacuoles is known as cytoplasmic streaming.

Why do you think learning about how atomic theory has evolved is important?
tatuchka [14]
I feel like it is important, because it is always nice to learn about new things and keep your mind open, to expand your knowledge.
