Answer:
Attraction between molecules of methane in liquid state is primarily due to "London dispersion force".
Explanation:
Methane is a non-polar and aprotic molecule. Hence there is no dipole moment in methane as well as no chance of hydrogen bonding formation by methane.
We know that all molecules contain electrons. Therefore transient dipole arises in every molecule due to revolution of electrons around nucleus in a non-circular orbit. Hence an weak intermolecular attraction force is always present in every molecule as a result of this which is termed as "London dispersion force".
So, attraction between molecules of methane in liquid state is primarily due to "London dispersion force".
When dT = Kf * molality * i
= Kf*m*i
and when molality = (no of moles of solute) / Kg of solvent
= 2.5g /250g x 1 mol /85 g x1000g/kg
=0.1176 molal
and Kf for water = - 1.86 and dT = -0.255
by substitution
0.255 = 1.86* 0.1176 * i
∴ i = 1.166
when the degree of dissociation formula is: when n=2 and i = 1.166
a= i-1/n-1 = (1.166-1)/(2-1) = 0.359 by substitution by a and c(molality) in K formula
∴K = Ca^2/(1-a)
= (0.1176 * 0.359)^2 / (1-0.359)
= 2.8x10^-3

At a constant temperature, the gas volume is inversely proportional to the pressure applied

V₁=250 ml

Answer:
Explanation:
Carbon is also found in the atmosphere where it's a part of carbon dioxide gas emitted when fossil fuels are burned and when living organisms breathe. It's in organic matter in the soil, and it's in rocks. But far and away the most carbon on Earth is stored in a surprising place: the ocean.
