<h3>Answer:</h3>

1379.4 Joules

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The quantity of heat is calculated multiplying the mass of a substance by heat capacity and the change in temperature.

Therefore;

Quantity of heat = Mass × specific heat capacity × Change in temperature

Q = mcΔT

In this case;

The substance dissolved in water gained heat while water lost heat energy.

Thus, Heat gained by the substance = heat lost by water

Heat associated with the water  

Mass of water = 75 g

Change in temperature = 4.4°C

Specific heat capacity =  4.18 J/g·⁰C

Heat = mcΔT

        = 75 g × 4.18 J/g·⁰C × 4.4 °C

        =1379.4 Joules

Which of the following molecules would exhibit only London forces?a)CH4, BH3, and CCl4b)H2O, NH3, and CCl4c)PH3, NH3, and CCl4
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

a)CH₄, BH₃, and CCl₄

Explanation:

<u>London dispersion forces:- </u>

The bond for example, in the molecule is F-F, which is non-polar in nature because the two fluorine atoms have same electronegativity values.

The intermolecular force acting in the molecule are induced dipole-dipole forces or London Dispersion forces / van der Waals forces which are the weakest intermolecular force.

Out of the given options, H₂O , NH₃ exhibits hydrogen bonding which is:-

<u>Hydrogen bonding:- </u>

Hydrogen bonding is a special type of the dipole-dipole interaction and it occurs between hydrogen atom that is bonded to highly electronegative atom which is either fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen atom.

Thus option B and C rules out.

<u>Hence, the correct option which represents the molecules which would exhibit only London forces is:- a)CH₄, BH₃, and CCl₄</u>

12. Compare and contrast hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions.
mrs_skeptik [129]

Explanation:

Van der Waals interactions occur between any two or more molecules. They are caused by a fluctuation in electron density, as electrons are not actually fixed in a shell, but actually freely moving as a 'cloud of electron density'. This means that sometimes one end of a molecule can become more partially negatively charged as all electrons move to that side, and conversely it can attract the more partially positive end of a molecule (that has little electrons).

Hydrogen bonds only occur between molecules that contain oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine bonded to a hydrogen atom.

Hydrogen bonding is also the strongest intermolecular force there is, but not strong in comparison to ionic and covalent bonds. Therefore, hydrogen bonds are much stronger than Van der Waals forces. Hydrogen bonds only form if oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine are bonded to a hydrogen atom, as they have the greatest electronegativity differences (look at an electronegativity table), and when the overall molecule is polar (have unequal charges). This allows the molecule to be able to attract another molecule from one of the bonded atoms to a hydrogen atom.

Which of the following is a definition of a base? O a. behaves as a catalyst. O b. accepts H ions from acids. Oc. turns cloudy w
yan [13]

Answer: b. accepts H^+ ions from acids

Explanation:

According to Arrhenius concept, a base is defined as a substance which donates hydroxide ions (OH^-) when dissolved in water and an acid is defined as a substance which donates hydronium ions (H_3O^+) in water.

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates H^+ ions and a base is defined as a substance which accepts H^+ ions.

NH_3+H_2O\rightarrow NH_4^++OH^-

Here water is donating H^+ ions, and thus act as acid and ammoia NH_3 is accepting H^+ ions from water and thus is a base.

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

Thus base is a substance which accepts  H^+ ions from acids.
