Answer:
NH3 < NF3 < BCl3
Explanation:
The vapour pressure of a substance has something to do with the nature of intermolecular forces between its molecules. If the molecules of a substance are held together by strong intermolecular forces, the substance will display a low vapour pressure at a given temperature and vice versa.
Ammonia has the lowest vapour pressure because of strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds that hold its molecules together.
Using ideal gas formula (PV=nRT), you can conclude that volume directly related to the temperature. That means an increase in temperature will cause an increased volume too. Note that the temperature is using Kelvin, not Celsius. The calculation would be:
V1/T1= V2/T2
590ml / (-<span>55+ 273)K = V2/ (30+273)K
V2= (590ml/ 218K) * 303K
V2= 820ml</span>
Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Atomic number of magnesium is 12 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 2. Whereas atomic number of sulfur is 16 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 6.
So, in order to attain stability a magnesium atom needs to lose its 2 valence electrons and a sulfur atom needs to gain two electrons to completely fill its octet.
Hence, magnesium on losing two electrons will acquire a +2 charge and thus, it becomes a cation. On the other hand, sulfur on gaining two electrons will acquire a -2 charge and thus, sulfur will become an anion.
Thus, we can conclude that in the reaction between magnesium and sulfur, the magnesium atoms become cations.
