Answer:
I think that the statement is relative to speed because it is saying km per second.
Answer:
[O2(g)][SO2(g)]^2/[SO3(g)]^2
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
a) The magnitude of intermolecular forces in compounds affects the boiling points of the compound. Neon has London dispersion forces as the only intermolecular forces operating in the substance while HF has dipole dipole interaction and strong hydrogen bonds operating in the molecule hence HF exhibits a much higher boiling point than Ne though they have similar molecular masses.
b) The boiling points of the halogen halides are much higher than that of the noble gases because the halogen halides have much higher molecular masses and stronger intermolecular forces between molecules compared to the noble gases.
Also, the change in boiling point of the hydrogen halides is much more marked(decreases rapidly) due to decrease in the magnitude of hydrogen bonding from HF to HI. The boiling point of the noble gases increases rapidly down the group as the molecular mass of the gases increases.
