Water freezes at 0∘C and CO freezes at −205∘C. Which type of intermolecular force accounts for this difference in freezing point

between the two compounds?
Chemistry

Explanation:

The dipoles in CO are in opposite directions so they cancel each other out, although CO₂ has polar bonds, it is a nonpolar molecule. Therefore, the only intermolecular forces are London dispersion forces. Water (H2O) has hydrogen bond present which is a polar bond which has a high intermolecular force.

Water which has high intermolecular force will require more energy that is a higher temperature to overcome these attractions and are pulled together tightly to form a solid at higher temperatures, so their freezing point is higher.

As the temperature of a liquid decreases, the average kinetic energy of the molecules decreases and they move more slowly.

CO with lower intermolecular forces will not solidify until the temperature is lowered further.

What type of compound is fe3n2
Shkiper50 [21]

Fe3N2, also known as Iron (II) nitride, is an ionic compound.


Ionic compounds are compounds that consists of metals and non-metals bonded with ionic bonds. The metal ion gives up electron(s) to the non-metals.


Since iron is a metal and nitrogen is an non-metal, the bond they would form would be an ionic bond. Iron gives up 2 electrons to form iron(II) ion, while nitrogen gains 3 electrons to form nitride ion. Since one iron cannot let a nitrogen gain 3 electrons, so in the compound, there would be 3 iron (ii) ions that has given up 6 electrons in total while 2 nitride ions have gained 6 electrons in total.

What is the limiting reactant for the following balanced equation when 9 moles of AlF3 are mixed with 12 miles of O2?
tamaranim1 [39]
<h2>Answer:AlF_{3} </h2>

Explanation:

The chemical equation of the reaction that occurs when AlF_{3} reacts with O_{2} is

4AlF_{3}+3O_{2}→2Al_{2}O_{3}+6F_{2}

4 moles of AlF_{3} requires 3 moles of O_{2}.

1 mole of AlF_{3} requires \frac{3}{4} moles of O_{2}.

Given that we have 9 moles of AlF_{3}.

9 moles of AlF_{3} requires \frac{3}{4}\times 9=6.75 moles of O_{2}.

But we have 12 moles of O_{2}.

So,AlF_{3}  will be consumed first.

So,AlF_{3}  is the limiting reagent.
