Answer:

b. ICl experiences dipole-dipole interactions

Explanation:

The molecule with the stronger intermolecular forces will have the higher boiling point.

In Br₂, the Br-Br bond has a dipole moment of zero, 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 non-zero bond dipole.

ICl will have the higher boiling point.

a is wrong. Br₂ is nonpolar, so it has no dipole-dipole interactions.

c is wrong. Br₂ cannot form hydrogen bonds, because there is no hydrogen.

d is wrong. ICl has dipole-dipole interactions.

In which situation is no work considered to be done by a force?

Masja [62]

If the angle is either 0 or 180, that means that there is either negative or positive work, so A and D are not correct.

If the angle is 45, then there is still some work involved.

The only option where there is no work done by a force is B. when the angle is between the force and displacement is 90.

You are performing an experiment that uses 114Ag. 113Ag is radioactive, decays by beta-- emission and has a half-life of 21 minu

maxonik [38]

Answer: The 234.74 grams of sample should be ordered.

Explanation:

Let the gram of 114 Ag to ordered be $N_o$

The amount required for the beginning of experiment = 0.0575 g

Time requires to ship the sample = 4.2hour = 252 min(1 hr = 60 min)

Half life of the sample = ${t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ = 21 min

$\lambda =\frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}=\frac{0.693}{21 min}=0.033 min^{-1}$

$\log[N]=\log[N_o]-\frac{\lambda t}{2.303}$

$\log[0.0575 g]=\log[N_o]-\frac{0.033 min^{-1}\times 252 min}{2.303}$

$N_o=234.74 grams$

The 234.74 grams of sample should be ordered.
