Hydrogen bonds:__________
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Option e.

Explanation:

The option 'e' fact about Hydrogen bonds are correct, that is; ''form weak interactions but can provide structural stability when many are found in a single molecule''.

So, what is this Hydrogen bond?

Hydrogen bonds is a kind of strong dipole- dipole attractions. Hydrogen bonding occurs as a result of the bonding between hydrogen and strongly electronegative atoms for example oxygen, Fluorine and so on.

Since we now know what Hydrogen bond is, let us take a look at the options.

(a) for the first option, we can see from above meaning of Hydrogen bonds that Hydrogen bonds occur between Hydrogen and a strong Electronegative atom. So, this option is wrong.

(b). Option 'b' is also wrong Because Hydrogen bonds does not occur between hydrogen and oxygen atoms ONLY but also with other strong Electronegative atoms such as oxygen.

(c). Option 'c' is wrong because between a strong and not only between a weak electronegative atom and hydrogen.

(d). Option 'd' is also not correct.

(e). Option 'e' is correct. Hydrogen bonds contribute to the effect of boiling and melting point of substance, solubilty, dimerization, strength of bonds, shape of molecules and so on

Which of the following has the lowest Ka?a. carbonic acid b. dihydrogen phosphate c. phosphoric acid d. bicarbonate
Naya [18.7K]

Explanation:

A compound or molecule which will have least dissociation and that is not able to given hydrogen ion easily upon dissociation will also have a low value of K_{a}.

Dissociation of the given compounds or species will be as follows.

 H_{2}CO_{3} \rightleftharpoons H^{+} + HCO^{-}_{3}

 H_{2}PO^{-}_{4} \rightleftharpoons H^{+} + HPO^{-}_{4}

 H_{3}PO_{4} \rightleftharpoons H_{+} + H_{2}PO^{-}_{4}

As, chemical formula of bicarbonate is HCO^{-}_{3} and due to the presence of a negative charge it is difficult to lose a positively charged hydrogen ion. This is because oppositely charged ions will be bonded by strong force of attraction.

Hence, it will not easily lose a hydrogen ion due to which bicarbonate has the lowest K_{a}.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given species bicarbonate has the lowest K_{a}.

True or false: water can be pumped into oil reservoirs to increase the pressure of the existing oil.
ICE Princess25 [194]
Im pretty sure that is true. but the oil will no longer be pure, as it was mixed with water.

Give the ideal bond angle for BrO3- ion? I know this has trigonal bipyramidal geometry and therefore the bond angle is < 109.
Vadim26 [7]

Now that we have a background in the Lewis electron dot structure we can use it to locate the the valence electrons of the center atom. The valence-shell electron-pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory states that electron pairs repel each other whether or not they are in bond pairs or in lone pairs. Thus, electron pairs will spread themselves as far from each other as possible to minimize repulsion. VSEPR focuses not only on electron pairs, but it also focus on electron groups as a whole. An electron group can be an electron pair, a lone pair, a single unpaired electron, a double bond or a triple bond on the center atom. Using the VSEPR theory, the electron bond pairs and lone pairs on the center atom will help us predict the shape of a molecule.

The shape of a molecule is determined by the location of the nuclei and its electrons. The electrons and the nuclei settle into positions that minimize repulsion and maximize attraction. Thus, the molecule's shape reflects its equilibrium state in which it has the lowest possible energy in the system. Although VSEPR theory predicts the distribution of the electrons, we have to take in consideration of the actual determinant of the molecular shape. We separate this into two categories, the electron-group geometry and the molecular geometry.
