Answer:

The interaction between sodium ion and the partial negative charge on the oxygen is stronger.

Explanation:

The predominant interaction that exists between sodium ion and the partial negative charge on the oxygen is ion-dipole interaction.

The predominant interaction that exists between two ethanol molecules is hydrogen bonding interaction.

The order of strength of the intermolecular interactions in decreasing order:

Ionic bond > ion-dipole interaction > hydrogen bonding > dipole-dipole interaction > ion-induced dipole interaction > induced dipole- dipole interaction > london force

So, ion-dipole interaction is stronger than hydrogen bonding.

Hence, the interaction between sodium ion and the partial negative charge on the oxygen is stronger.

Answer:

There are three ways that scientists have proved that these sub-atomic particles exist. They are direct observation, indirect observation or inferred presence and predictions from theory or conjecture. Scientists in the 1800's were able to infer a lot about the sub-atomic world from chemistry.

Which term names the group of organisms able to interbreed and produce fertile offspring?
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Species

Explanation:

Species is the group of organisms able to interbreed and produce fertile offspring.

Let's break down each word in the question:

"Organisms" means living thing. It can be a plant or animal like we usually think of, but it also includes the really small single-celled living things like some bacteria.

"Interbreed" means to mate with each other.

"Fertile" means that the living thing can also have babies.

"Offspring" means the children that are born.

"Fertile offspring" means that the children that are made must be able to have babies of their own. For example, if a frog and a bird could interbreed, they might produce offspring (children). But, if those frog-birds cannot also have children, then frog-bird is not a species.

What are the reasons for existence of large number of organic compounds in nature.Explain ​
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

because of catenation of carbon.

Explanation:

Catenation is the binding of an element to its self through covalent bonds to form chain or ring molecules. carbon is able to form continuous links with other carbon atoms which is the reason for the existence of a large number of organic compounds.
