The attractions that allow molecules of krypton to exist in the solid phase are due to:

Chemistry
1 answer:
OLga [1]3 years ago

Answer:

4) Van der waals forces

Explanation:

Krypton (Kr) belongs to the noble gas group and has fully filled valence orbitals. In the solid phase, Kr exists as a white solid with a face centered cubic structure.

Intermolecular forces of attraction from the strongest to the weakest include:

Ionic > hydrogen bonding > dipole-dipole > london dispersion

Kr is monoatomic and non-polar. When fully filled (stable) valence orbitals of 2 Kr atoms approach each other in close proximity they experience a repulsive force which prevents the formation of strong bonds. Thus, the only force of attraction in Kr is the long range weak Van Der Waals force also known as the london dispersion force.

The formula for a compound of Li₊ ions and Br_ ions is written LiBr. Why can't it be written Li₂Br? Why isn't it written BrLi?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

.

Explanation:

Lithium is in the first column of the periodic table, so it will have 1 valence electron.

Bromine is in the seventh column of the periodic table, so it will have seven valence electrons.

They must combine in a way to reach 8.

When combining elements to form compounds, the "crisscross method" is used. Above Li would be a charge of +1, and above Br would be a charge of -1.

Cross the 1 from the top of Li to the bottom of Br, and so there is 1 Br.

Cross the 1 from the top of Br to the bottom of Li, and so there is 1 Li.

It is not written BrLi because chemists decided to order them the other way. Technically speaking, it isn't wrong, but the positive charge is normally put on the left and the negative charge is normally put on the right.

Determine whether each of the molecules below is polar or nonpolar. Tetrahedral C C l 4 CClX4 Nonpolar Tetrahedral C H 3 O H CHX
liraira [26]

Answer:

CCl4 - Nonpolar

CH3OH - polar

NH3 - polar

CS2 - Nonpolar

Explanation:

One important thing that we should know is that polarity has to do with the presence of a resultant dipole moment in a molecule.

Dipole moment is a vector quantity, This means that its direction is also taken into account when discussing the dipole moment of molecules.

Hence, symmetrical molecules such as CS2 and CCl4 are non-polar even though they have polar bonds because their dipoles cancel out(zero resultant dipole moment).

On the other hand, NH3 and CH3OH are non-symmetrical molecules hence they possess an overall dipole moment and are polar molecules.

What are some factors that might stop populations exponential growth?
ipn [44]
Economy - If there isn't a sustainable economy, it won't be able to support many people so instead they are limited.

Weather- If a place is too warm or too cold it can affect the population. The weather may be seen as harsh.

Government- If people are not agreeing with the government and are against, many will leave. They won't be able to withstand it.

Overpopulation- If there is too many people, they may restrict how many babies you can have and how many people can live there. China, a co
