Answer:

Y > X > Z

Explanation:

The intermoecular forces refer to forces that exist between molecules of a substance. They are the secondary bond forces that hold particles of a substance together in a particular state of matter.

The shorter the distance between molecules, the greater the magnitude of intermolecular force between the molecules.

The molecules of Y are at the shortest distance from each other hence they have the highest magnitude of intermolecular forces. Followed by X and lastly Z with the greatest distance between the largest intermolecular distance.

The ka of hf is 6.8 x 10-4. what is the ph of a 0.35 m solution of hf?

damaskus [11]

When the reaction equation is:

HF ↔ H+ + F-

and when the Ka expression
= concentration of products/concentration of reactions

so, Ka = [H+][F-]/[HF]

when we assume:

[H+] = [F-] = X

and [HF] = 0.35 - X

So, by substitution:

6.8 x 10^-4 = X^2 / (0.35 - X) by solving for X

∴ X = 0.015 M

∴[H+] = X = 0.015

when PH = -㏒[H+]

∴PH = -㏒0.015

= 1.8
