Answer:

A) CH3CH2SH

Explanation:

Dispersion forces are weak attractions found between non-polar and polar molecules. The attractions here can be attributed to the fact that a  non-polar molecule sometimes become polar because the constant motion of its electrons may lead to an uneven charge distribution at an instant. If this happens, the molecule has a temporary dipole. This dipole can induce the neighbouring molecules to be distorted and form dipoles as well. The attractions between these dipoles constitute the Dispersion Forces.

Therefore; the greater the molar mass of a compound or molecule, the higher the Dispersion Force. This implies that the compound or molecule with the highest molar mass have the largest dispersion forces.

Now; for option (A)

CH3CH2SH

The molar mass is :

= (12 + (1 × 3 ) +12 + (1 ×2) + 32+1)

= (12 + 3+ 12 + 2 + 32 + 1)

= 62 g/mol

For option (B)

CH3NH2

The molar mass is:

= (12 + (1 ×  3 ) +14 + (1 ×  2)

= (12 + 3 + 14 + 2)

= 31 g/mol

For option (C)

CH4

The molar mass is :

= 12 + (1 × 4)

= 12 + 4

= 16 g/mol

For option (D)

CH3CH3

The molar mass is :

= 12 + ( 1 × 3 ) + 12 + ( 1 × 3)

= 12 + 3 + 12 + 3

= 30 g/mol

Thus ; option (A) has the highest molar mass, as such the largest dispersion force is A) CH3CH2SH

One of the commercial uses of sulfuric acid is the production of calcium sulfate and phosphoric acid. If 26.8 g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ rea
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The percent yield reaction is 64.3%

Explanation:

This is the ballanced reaction

Ca₃(PO₄)₂ (s) + 3H₂SO₄ (aq) → 2H₃PO₄ (aq) + 3CaSO₄ (aq)

Let's determine the moles of our reactants:

Mass / Molar mass = Mol

26.8 g / 310.18 g/m = 0.0864 moles of phosphate.

54.3 g / 98.06 g/m = 0.554 moles of sulfuric

1 mol of phosphate reacts with 3 mol of sulfuric so

0.0864 mol of PO₄⁻³ will react with (0.0864 .3)/1 = 0.259 moles

I have 0.554 of sulfuric, so this is the reactant in excess.

The limiting reagent is the Phosphate.

1 mol of PO₄⁻³ produces 2 mol of phosphoric

0.0864 of PO₄⁻³ will produce the double amount (0.0864 .2) = 0.173 moles

Mol . molar mass = Mass

0.173 m . 97.98g/m = 16.95 g (This is the theoretical yield)

Percent yield = (Produced / Theoretical) .100

(10.9 g / 16.95 g) . 100 = 64.3 %

Why does nuclear fusion occur in stars but not on Earth?
disa [49]

Answer:

C.

Fusion reactions require a lot of heat and pressure

Explanation:

nuclear fusion takes place only at extremely high temperatures. That's because a great deal of energy is needed to overcome the force of repulsion between the positively charged nuclei. ... A: Nuclear fusion doesn't occur naturally on Earth because it requires temperatures far higher than Earth temperatures.

Explain the following phenomena. why Fluorine has lower electron affinity than chlorine​
Radda [10]

Electron affinity for fluorine is than chlorine most likely , due to the electron repulsion that occur between the electron where n= 2 . the elements in the second period have such small electron clouds that electron repulsion is greater than that of the rest of the family.
