Answer:

b. ICl experiences dipole-dipole interactions

Explanation:

The molecule with the <em>stronger intermolecular forces</em> will have the higher boiling point.

In Br₂, the Br-Br bond has a <em>dipole moment of zero</em>, because the two atoms are identical.

In ICl, the I-Cl bond, has two different atoms. One must be more electronegative than the other, so there will be a <em>non-zero bond dipole</em>.

ICl will have the higher boiling point.

a is <em>wrong</em>. Br₂ is nonpolar, so it has no dipole-dipole interactions.

c is <em>wrong</em>. Br₂ cannot form hydrogen bonds, because there is no hydrogen.

d is <em>wrong</em>. ICl has dipole-dipole interactions.

For the reaction KClO2⟶KCl+O2 KClO2⟶KCl+O2 assign oxidation numbers to each element on each side of the equation. K in KClO2:K i
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula of the reaction:

            KClO₂ → KCl + O₂

To assign oxidation numbers, we have to obey some rules:

  1. Elements in an uncombined state or one whose atoms combine with one another to form molecules have an oxidation number of zero.
  2. The charge on simple ions signifies their oxidation number.
  3. The algebraic sum of all the oxidation number of all atoms in a neutral compound is zero. For radicals with charges, their oxidation number is the charge.

The oxidation number of K in KClO₂:

                                   K + (-1) + 2(-2) = 0

                                    K-5 = 0

                                    K = +5

The oxidation number of K in KCl:

                                K + (-1) = 0

                                K = +1

The oxidation number Cl in KClO₂ is -1

For Cl in KCl, the oxidation number is -1

For O in KClO₂, the oxidation number is (2 x -2) = -4

For O in O₂, the oxidation number is 0

K moves from an oxidation state of +5 to +1. This is a gain of electrons and K has undergone reduction. We then say K is reduced.

O moves from an oxidation state of -4 to 0. This is a loss of electrons and O has undergone oxidation. We say O is oxidized.
