Which molecule will undergo only London dispersion forces when interacting with other molecules of the same kind? a.HCl b.C2H5OH

c.NH3 d.CH4
Chemistry
1 answer:
ohaa [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

CH4

Explanation:

London dispersion forces are a type of force acting between atoms and molecules that are normally electrically symmetric; that is, the electrons are symmetrically distributed with respect to the nucleus. They are part of the van der Waals forces(Wikipedia).  It is a temporary attractive force that results when the electrons in two adjacent atoms occupy positions that make the atoms form temporary dipoles. This force is sometimes called an induced dipole-induced dipole attraction(Chem Purdue).

If we consider HCl, C2H5OH  and NH3, we will discover that they all have polar bonds. Consequently, dipole - dipole interaction as well as hydrogen bonds exist between their molecules.

CH4 is nonpolar. Being a nonpolar molecule, the only possible intermolecular interaction forces between its molecules is the London dispersion forces.

Since all atoms have negatively charged electrons, shouldn’t every sample of matter have a negative charge ? Explain
Salsk061 [2.6K]

The three sub-atomic particles that made up an atom are electron, proton and neutron. The proton and neutron are present in the nucleus of an atom whereas electrons revolve around the nucleus in the orbits. The atoms are electrically neutral that is they have no charge due to the presence of equal number of protons (which is positively charged) and electrons (which is negatively charged).

All the atoms have negatively charged electrons which are counter balanced by the presence of equal number of protons in the nucleus of an atom and thus, the element is neutral in nature and possess no charge.

What is a bond between a positive and negative ion called?
BartSMP [9]
B) ionic bond

(although in reality, every bond is fundamentally the sharing of a pair of electron. but due to unmutal electonegativity, the molecule becomes polar)

What is the net ionic equation for the reaction that occurs when aqueous copper(II) sulfate is added to excess 6-molar ammonia?a
Karolina [17]

Answer:

c. 2NH₃ + 2H₂O  + Cu²⁺ → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NH₄⁺

Explanation:

A net ionic equation is a chemical equation that list only the species that are involved in the reaction.

The reaction of ammonia with copper(II) sulfate CuSO₄ in water is:

2NH₃ + 2H₂O  + CuSO₄ → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NH₄⁺ + SO₄²⁻

In an ionic equation, salts are written as ions, that means CuSO₄ must be written as Cu²⁺ + SO₄²⁻. That is:

2NH₃ + 2H₂O  + Cu²⁺ +<u> SO₄²⁻</u> → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NH₄⁺ + <u>SO₄²⁻</u>

As in a net ionic equation you must list only the species involved in the reaction (The underlined species don't react), the net ionic equation is:

<em>c</em>. <em>2NH₃ + 2H₂O  + Cu²⁺ → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NH₄⁺</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!
