Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
a) The magnitude of intermolecular forces in compounds affects the boiling points of the compound. Neon has London dispersion forces as the only intermolecular forces operating in the substance while HF has dipole dipole interaction and strong hydrogen bonds operating in the molecule hence HF exhibits a much higher boiling point than Ne though they have similar molecular masses.
b) The boiling points of the halogen halides are much higher than that of the noble gases because the halogen halides have much higher molecular masses and stronger intermolecular forces between molecules compared to the noble gases.
Also, the change in boiling point of the hydrogen halides is much more marked(decreases rapidly) due to decrease in the magnitude of hydrogen bonding from HF to HI. The boiling point of the noble gases increases rapidly down the group as the molecular mass of the gases increases.
Answer:
The correct option is: b. pH 6.4-8.0
Explanation:
Phenol red is a weak acid that is used as a pH indicator and exists in the form of stable red crystals.
<u>The color of the phenol red solution changes from yellow to red when the change in pH is observed. The color of phenol red transitions from yellow to red when the pH is 6.8 - 8.2 or 6.4 - 8.0</u>
Above the pH of 8.2, the phenol red solution turns a bright pink in color.
