What kind of intermolecular forces act between a hydrogen cyanide molecule and a potassium cation?

Chemistry
1 answer:
andriy [413]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

ion-dipole

Explanation:

Let us remember that the potassium cation is an ion, a positive ion to be precise.

There is a dipole existing in the hydrogen cyanide molecule. The positive end of the dipole is on hydrogen while the negative end of the dipole is on the cyanide moiety.

The only possible interaction between the potassium cation and the hydrogen cyanide is an ion dipole interaction. The cation interacts with the cyanide moiety having a partial negative charge in the molecule.

If the pressure in the room is 759.2 torr and the vapor pressure of water is 23.8 torr, what is the pressure of hydrogen gas in
Gwar [14]

The partial pressure of Hydrogen gas can directly be calculated by simply taking the difference of the overall pressure and the vapour pressure of water. That is:

 

P (H2 gas) = 759.2 torr – 23.8 torr

<span>P (H2 gas) = 735.4 torr</span>

Arrange the following in order of increasing bond strength of the carbon oxygen bond:
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The correct option is: Carbonate ion < Carbon dioxide < Carbon monoxide

Explanation:

Bond energy is defined as the average energy needed to break a chemical covalent bond and signifies the strength of chemical covalent bond.

The bond strength of a covalent bond depends upon the <u>bond length and the bond order.</u>

Carbon monoxide molecule (CO) has two covalent bond and one dative bond. Bond order 2.6

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) has two carbon-oxygen (C-O) double bonds of equal length. Bond order 2.0

Carbonate ion (CO₃²⁻) has three C-O partial double bonds. Bond order 1.5

Also, the bond length is <u>inversely proportional to the bond order and bond strength.</u>

Therefore, <u>order of C-O bond length:</u> Carbon monoxide<Carbon dioxide<Carbonate ion

<u>Order of C-O bond order</u>: Carbonate ion<Carbon dioxide<Carbon monoxide

<u>Order of C-O bond strength or energy</u><u>: Carbonate ion<Carbon dioxide<Carbon monoxide</u>
