The electron cloud of HF is smaller than that of F2, however, HF has a much higher boiling point than F2 has. Which of the follo

wing explains how the dispersion-force model of intermolecular attraction does not account for the unusually high boiling point of HF?
A. F2 is soluble in water, whereas HF is insoluble in water.
B. The F2 molecule has a greater mass than the HF molecule has.
C. Liquid F2 has weak dispersion force attractions between its molecules, whereas liquid HF has strong ionic interactions between H+ and F- ions.
D. Liquid F2 has weak dispersion force attractions between its molecules, whereas liquid HF has both weak dispersion force attractions and hydrogen bonding interactions between its molecules.

Answer:D

Explanation:

The high boiling point of HF is not attributable to the dispersion forces mentioned in the question. In HF, a stronger attraction is in operation, that is hydrogen bonding. This ultimately accounts for the high boiling point and not solely the dispersion model as in F2.

Daniel [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

Step 1: O_3\rightarrow O_2+O

Step 2: NO+O\rightarrow NO_2

Overall reaction can be determined  by adding all the reactions of mechanism:

O_3+NO\rightarrow O_2+NO_2

Reactants in an overall reaction = O_3\& NO

Products in an overall reaction = O_2\& NO_2

According to question , the role of oxygen gas is product.

When a kettle is placed on the stove and water begins to boil, the hotter water at the bottom begins to rise and the
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The cooler water is denser

Explanation:

Convection drives the boiling of water placed on a stove in a kettle.

During convection, heat is circulated by density differences in portions of a fluid.

Convection is a form of heat transfer in fluids especially gas and liquid.

  • In boiling water, the heat is supplied to the base of the stove.
  • The water at the bottom on heat becomes lighter as the molecules gain more kinetic energy.
  • The colder part of the water on top sinks to replace the less dense on below.
  • This exchange sets up convection cells in the kettle.

The density of octane is 0.700 g/cm3.  What is the mass of one liter of octane?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

m = 700 g

Explanation:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Given data:

Density of octane = 0.700 g/cm³

Volume = 1 L

Mass = ?

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

First of all we will convert the volume in cm³ because density is given in g/cm³ unit.

1 L = 1000 cm³

Now we will put the values in formula:

d= m/v

m = v × d

m = 1000 cm³ × 0.700 g/cm³

m = 700 g

Which one of the following statements about mixtures is correct [2] [3] The different substances in a mixture are always in a de
aivan3 [116]

Answer: Option (4) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A mixture is defined as a substance that contains two or more different substance that are physically mixed with each other.

If solute particles are evenly distributed in a solvent then it is known as a homogeneous mixture.

For example, salt dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture.

If solute particles are unevenly distributed into the solvent then it is known as a heterogeneous mixture.

For example, sand in water is a heterogeneous mixture.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement a mixture must contain at least two different substances, is correct about mixtures.
