The right answer is D.

Intermolecular forces lead to the assembly of microscopic systems. They are responsible for the cohesion of matter in most macroscopic phases. These are weak forces compared to covalent bond strengths. They do not modify the nature of the molecular species and only influence their mode of assembly. The most well-known intermolecular bonds are the Van der Waals bond and the hydrogen bond.

The greater the intermolecular forces, the more the aspect of the element will tend to be more condensed (gas <liquid <solid).

Alex recently quit smoking. Now he has trouble paying attention at work and forgets simple things. Which neurotransmitter is mos
joja [24]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Tobacco is consumed during smoking which contains an addictive substance called Nicotine. Nicotine exerts its effect on the body by stimulating the acetylcholine receptors in the neurons. The stimulation of these receptors stimulates another neurotransmitter like glutamate, dopamine and GABA which produce addictive effects in humans.

Since the acetylcholine is involved in stimulating the other neurotransmitters therefore true is the correct answer.

Thus, true is the correct answer.
