Which one of the following would have the largest dispersion forces?

Chemistry

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

Which of the following can an isosceles triangle not be? an acute triangle a scalene triangle an equilateral triangle a right tr
zimovet [89]

Answer;

A scalene

Explanation;

A triangle is a geometric figure with three sides and three angles that always add up to 180 degrees.

Based on properties triangles can be classified as equilateral, scalene, isosceles and right triangles.

Equilateral triangles has all the three sides and the angles equal, an isosceles triangle has two of its sides equal, and two angles that are known as the base angles equal. A scalene triangle has all the three angles and sides different from each other. A right triangle is a triangle in which one of the angle is right angle or is 90 degrees.

An isosceles triangle may be a right triangle, equilateral triangle, and also may be an acute triangle, however an isosceles triangle can never be a scalene triangle

In your own words, describe the purpose of using a chemical equation.<br><br> PLEASEEEE HURRY
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Hey mate, here is your answer. Hope it helps you.

Explanation:

To show how substances in a chemical reaction interact and to keep track of all elements and the number of atoms in each element on each side of the equation.The purpose of writing a balanced chemical equation is to know: the reactants (starting material) and products (end results) that occur. the ratios in which they react so you can calculate how much reactants you need and how much products can be formed.
