Answer:

Ion-dipole forces

Explanation:

Na⁺ is a cation, that is, an ion with a positive charge.

NH₃ has polar covalent bonds (due to the difference in electronegativity between nitrogen and hydrogen). According to the VESPR theory, it has a trigonal pyramidal shape with a lone pair. As a consequence, it has a net dipole moment and the molecule is polar.

The intermolecular forces between Na⁺ (ion) and NH₃ (dipole) are ion-dipole forces.

Given the following thermodynamic data, calculate the lattice energy of LiCl:
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{-862 kJ/mol}}

Explanation:

One way to calculate the lattice energy is to use Hess's Law.

The lattice energy U is the energy released when the gaseous ions combine to form a solid ionic crystal:

Li⁺(g) + Cl⁻(g) ⟶ LiCl(s); U = ?

We must generate this reaction rom the equations given.

(1)  Li(s) + ½Cl₂ (g) ⟶ LiCl(s);      ΔHf°     = -409 kJ·mol⁻¹

(2) Li(s) ⟶ Li(g);                          ΔHsub =    161 kJ·mol⁻¹

(3) Cl₂(g) ⟶ 2Cl(g)                     BE        =   243 kJ·mol⁻¹

(4) Li(g) ⟶Li⁺(g) +e⁻                   IE₁         =   520 kJ·mol⁻¹

(5) Cl(g) + e⁻ ⟶ Cl⁻(g)                EA₁       =  -349 kJ·mol⁻¹

Now, we put these equations together to get the lattice energy.

                                                <u>E/kJ </u> 

(5) Li⁺(g) +e⁻ ⟶ Li(g)                520

(6) Li(g) ⟶ Li(s)                         -161

(7) Li(s) + ½Cl₂(g) ⟶ LiCl(s)     -409

(8) Cl(g) ⟶ ½Cl₂(g)                   -121.5

(9) Cl⁻(g) ⟶ Cl(g) + e⁻               <u>+349</u>

      Li⁺(g) +  Cl⁻(g) ⟶ LiCl(s)     -862

The lattice energy of LiCl is \boxed{\textbf{-862 kJ/mol}}.

Carbon and oxygen combine to form carbon dioxide. What are the products, or what is the product, in this chemical reaction?
VladimirAG [237]

The product in this chemical reaction is Carbon Dioxide or CO2.

This is because it states, "To form," which means that it was produced from the reactants Carbon and Oxygen.

To know what the products are in a statement rather than an equation, words such as produced and formed are used.

Hope this helps!
