Answer: Mothballs have weak intermolecular forces.

No all substances do not behave like mothballs at normal conditions. Example: benzene , chloroform

Explanation:

Sublimation is a process of converting a substance from solid state to gaseous state without the formation of liquid at constant temperature.

A substance which undergoes sublimation is called as sublimating substance.

As mothballs is made of napthalene which has weak inter molecular forces of attraction between its molecules, it directly sublimes into gaseous state without leaving any residue and is called as a sublimating substance.

Not all substances behave like mothballs at normal conditions. Example: benzene , chloroform

In addition to not causing damage to the sample, what is another advantage of using a microspectrophotometer to analyze fibers?
Tems11 [23]

Another advantage of advantage of using a microspectrophotometer to analyze fibers asides not causing damage to the sample is that the sample can be quite small.

<h3>What is a microspectrophotometer?</h3>

Microspectrophotometry is a biological technique used to measure the absorption or transmission spectrum of a solid or liquid material in either transmitted or reflected light.

Microspectrophotometry can also measure the emission of light by a sample, which is usually small as the micro implies.

One advantage of microspectrophotometry is that the sample does not get damaged. However,

How is particle motion related to thermal equilibrium?
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

With billions of moving particles colliding into each other, an area of high energy will slowly transfer across the material until thermal equilibrium is reached (the temperature is the same across the material).

How many electrons in an atom can share the quantum numbers n = 2, l = 1?<br> 1<br> 3<br> 6<br> 10
Igoryamba
Principal quantum number is n = 2, principal quantum number gives the energy shells electrons reside in,
angular momentum quantum number , these are the number of subshells and gives how many subshells are there in energy shells, values for l range from 0 to n-1
magnetic quantum number -m- gives the specific orbital in the subshells and their orientation.
spin quantum number gives the spin of the electrons.

in this case, n = 2
the types of subshells in n=2 are 0 and 1
0 - s subshell 
1 - p subshell
the  specific number of orbitals are given by -l to +l
when l = 1
then -1, 0 and +1
therefore there are 3 orbitals in p subshell and orbitals are in 3 orientations
each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, 
since there are 3 orbitals each holding 6, there are 6 electrons to which these quantum numbers are the same
answer is 6

explain the relationship between the rate of effusion of a gas and its molar mass. methane gas (ch4) effuses 3.4 times faster th
Musya8 [376]

The molar mass of the unknown gas is 184.96 g/mol

<h3>Graham's law of diffusion </h3>

This states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass i.e

R ∝ 1/ √M

R₁/R₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

<h3>How to determine the molar mass of the unknown gas </h3>

The following data were obtained from the question:

  • Rate of unknown gas (R₁) = R
  • Rate of CH₄ (R₂) = 3.4R
  • Molar mass of CH₄ (M₂) = 16 g/mol
  • Molar mass of unknown gas (M₁) =?

The molar mass of the unknown gas can be obtained as follow:

R₁/R₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

R / 3.4R = √(16 / M₁)

1 / 3.4 = √(16 / M₁)

Square both side

(1 / 3.4)² = 16 / M₁

Cross multiply

(1 / 3.4)² × M₁ = 16

Divide both side by (1 / 3.4)²

M₁ = 16 / (1 / 3.4)²

M₁ = 184.96 g/mol
