Answer:

We could make the surface tension to decrease by removing and causing a disruption to the intermolecular forces(hydrogen bonds).

Explanation:

To explain this answer, we will consider an experiment whereby a paper clip is made to rest at the top surface of water inside a container/beaker.

First of all, the intermolecular forces present in water are also known as hydrogen bonds.

It's relationship with surface tension is that when there is high surface tension in the water, this high tension will allow the paper clip to rest on top of the hydrogen bonds present at the top surface in between the water molecules.

However, the surface tension will decrease when we remove or cause a disruption to the intermolecular forces (hydrogen bonds).

Complete the following sentences:
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) In an exothermic reaction, the energy transferred to the surroundings from forming new bonds is ___more____ than the energy needed to break existing bonds.  

b) In an endothermic reaction, the energy transferred to the surroundings from forming new bonds is ___less____ than the energy needed to break existing bonds.  

c) The energy change of an exothermic reaction has a _____negative_______ sign.  

d) The energy change of an endothermic reaction has a ____positive________ sign.

The energy changes occur during the bonds formation and bonds breaking.

There are two types of reaction endothermic and exothermic reaction.

Endothermic reactions:

The type of reactions in which energy is absorbed are called endothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bond are higher than the energy released during bond formation.

For example:

C + H₂O   →  CO  + H₂

ΔH = +131 kj/mol

it can be written as,

C +  H₂O  + 131 kj/mol  →  CO  + H₂

Exothermic reaction:

The type of reactions in which energy is released are called exothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bonds are less than the energy released during the bond formation.

For example:

Chemical equation:

C + O₂   →  CO₂

ΔH = -393 Kj/mol

it can be written as,

C + O₂   →  CO₂ + 393 Kj/mol

Which of the following molecules is diamagnetic according to molecular orbital theory? A) N₂⁺ B) N₂⁻ C) CN D) CN⁻
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

D) CN⁻

Explanation:

    Hund's Rule of Maximum Multiplicity state that electrons go into degenerate orbitals of sub-levels (p,d, and f ) singly before pairing commences. Hund's rule is useful in determining the number of unpaired electrons in an atom. As such, it explains some magnetic properties of elements.

An element whose atoms or molecules contain unpaired electrons is paramagnetic. i.e., weakly attracted to substances in a magnetic field.

On the other hand, the element whose atoms or molecules are filled up with paired electrons is known as diamagnetic, i.e., not attracted by magnetic substances.

According to the molecular orbital theory, the diamagnetic molecule is CN⁻ because of the absence of unpaired electrons.
