Answer:

Yes, chloromethane has stronger intermolecular forces than a pure sample of methane has.

Explanation:

In both methane and chloromethane, there are weak dispersion forces. However, in methane, the dispersion forces are the only intermolecular forces present. Also, the lower molar mass of methane means that it has a lower degree of dispersion forces.

For chloromethane, there is in addition to dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interaction arising from the polar C-Cl bond in the molecule. Also the molar mass of chloromethane  is greater than that of methane implying a greater magnitude of dispersion forces in operation.

Therefore, chloromethane has stronger intermolecular forces than a pure sample of methane has.

Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of a body of mass 1 kg moving with a velocity of
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

4.42 × 10⁻³⁷ m

Explanation:

Step 1: Given and required data

  • Mass of the body (m): 1 kg
  • Velocity of the body (v): 1500 m/s
  • Planck's constant (h): 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s

Step 2: Calculate the de Broglie wavelenght (λ) of the body

We will use de Broglie's equation.

λ = h / m × v

λ = (6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s) / 1 kg × (1500 m/s) = 4.42 × 10⁻³⁷ m

Water will move from a ____________ salt solution to a ____________ salt solution when they are across a differentially permeabl
const2013 [10]
The answers are low concentrated (dilute) and high concentrated respectively. 

As the low concentrated salt solution has a higher water potential than that of the high concentrated salt solution, water molecules will flow from the region of higher water potential to the region of lower water potential, thus from the dilute salt solution to the high concentrated salt solution. This is due to the movement called osmosis. Note that osmosis also requires water to flow through a differentially permeable membrane, which means the membrane can allow certain substances (not all) to go in or out. If the differentially permeable membrane is not present, the movement of water molecules may be regarded as diffusion. 

Therefore, the answers for the blanks are low concentrated and high concentrated.

Determine whether or not the mixing of each of the two solutions indicated below will result in a buffer.
WARRIOR [948]
Part A

75.0 mL of 0.10 M HF; 55.0 mL of 0.15 M NaF

This combination will form a buffer.

Explanation

Here, weak acid HF and its conjugate base F- is available in the solution

Part B

150.0 mL of 0.10 M HF; 135.0 mL of 0.175 M HCl

This combination cannot form a buffer.

Explanation

Here, moles of HF = 0.15 x 0.1 = 0.015 moles

Moles of HCl = 0.135 x 0.175 = 0.023

Since HCl is a strong acid and the number of HCl is higher than HF. This prevents the dissociation of HF and the conjugate base F- will not be available in the solution

Part C

165.0 mL of 0.10 M HF; 135.0 mL of 0.050 M KOH

This combination will form a buffer.

Explanation

Moles of HF = 0.165 x 0.1 = 0.0165 moles

Moles of KOH = 0.135 x 0.05 = 0.00675 moles

Moles of KOH is not sufficient for the complete neutralization of HF. Thus weak acid HF and its conjugate base F- is available in the solution and form a buffer

Part D

125.0 mL of 0.15 M CH3NH2; 120.0 mL of 0.25 M CH3NH3Cl

This combination will form a buffer

Explanation

Here, weak acid CH3NH3+ and its conjugate base CH3NH2 is available in the solution and form a buffer

Part E

105.0 mL of 0.15 M CH3NH2; 95.0 mL of 0.10 M HCl

This combination will form a buffer

Explanation

Moles of CH3NH2 = 0.105 x 0.15 = 0.01575 moles

Moles of HCl = 0.095 x 0.1 = 0.0095 moles

Thus the HCl completely reacts with CH3NH2 and converts a part of the CH3NH2 to CH3NH3+. This results weak acid CH3NH3+ and its conjugate base CH3NH2 is in the solution and form a buffer
