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.

How does the molecular formula of a compound differ from the empirical formula? Can a compound’s empirical and molecular formula
Y_Kistochka [10]
Molecular is every element present in the compound eg C2H6, empirical is the smallest whole number ratio of elements in a compound so that would be CH3 as you divide by the highest common factor. Some compounds only have 1 formula if they are simple or have no common factors. Eg methane, CH4 is its molecular and empirical because its the simplest whole number ratio and includes every element in the molecule

When charging an object by conduction, what happens to the charges in the<br> object?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

During charging by conduction, both objects acquire the same type of charge. If a negative object is used to charge a neutral object, then both objects become charged negatively. In order for the neutral sphere to become negative, it must gain electrons from the negatively charged rod. 3.
