What molecules tend to have high kinetic energy and low intermolecular forces.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Stels [109]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Two factors determine whether a substance is a solid, a liquid, or a gas: The kinetic energies of the particles (atoms, molecules, or ions) that make up a substance. Kinetic energy tends to keep the particles moving apart. The attractive intermolecular forces between particles that tend to draw the particles together. As the temperature continues to drop, the matter forms a solid. Due to the solid's low kinetic energy, particles have no "time" to move around, the particles have more "time" to be attracted. Therefore, solids have the strongest intramolecular forces (because they have the strongest attraction). The three states of matter are: Solids: The strong bonds between molecules make solids rigid and very difficult to deform. Liquids: The relatively weak bonds between molecules allow liquids to be deformed without effort.

Hope this helps.......... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!! :D

A student working in the laboratory produces 6.81 grams of calcium oxide, CaO, from 20.7 grams of calcium
ozzi

Answer:

Percent yield = 57.8 %

Theoretical yield  = 11.781 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CaO produced = 6.81 g

Mass of CaCO₃ react = 20.7 g

Theoretical yield = ?

Percent yield = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

CaCO₃       →      CaO + CO₂

Number of moles of CaCO₃ :

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 20.7 g/ 100.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.21 mol

Now we will compare the moles of CaCO₃ with CaO.

                  CaCO₃        :           CaO

                       1              :              1

                      0.21         :           0.21

Theoretical yield of CaO:  

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.21 mol × 56.1 g/mol

Mass = 11.781 g

Percent yield:

Percent yield = ( actual yield / theoretical yield ) ×  100

Percent yield = (6.81 g/ 11.781 g) × 100

Percent yield = 57.8 %

Place the following compounds in order of increasing vapor pressure. methane, CH4; pentane, CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3; 1-propanol, CH3CH2C
ella [17]

Explanation:

A compound that contains more stronger bonds will need more amount of heat in order to break the bonds so that it changes into vapor state.

In 1-propanol, there is hydrogen bonding and it is stronger in nature. As a result, more amount of heat is required to break the bonds between molecules of 1-propanol.

Whereas in propanone, there will be dipole-dipole interactions which are less stronger than hydrogen bonding. Hence, propanone molecule will need less amount of energy than 1-propanol.

On the other hand, pentane will need more amount of heat as it has longer chain of carbon atoms as compared to methane.

Thus, we can conclude that given compounds are arranged in order of increasing vapor pressure as follows.

         methane < pentane < propanone < 1-propanol

Before we can use this equation for
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

2C₂H₆ +  [7]O₂     →      [4]CO₂ + [6]H₂O

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

C₂H₆ +  O₂     →      CO₂ + H₂O

Balanced chemical equation:

2C₂H₆ +  7O₂     →      4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Step 1:

2C₂H₆ +  O₂     →      CO₂ + H₂O

Left hand side                      Right hand side

C = 4                                     C = 1

H = 12                                    H = 2

O = 2                                     O = 3

Step 2:

2C₂H₆ +  O₂     →      4CO₂ + H₂O

Left hand side                      Right hand side

C = 4                                     C =  4

H = 12                                    H = 2

O = 2                                     O = 9

Step 3:

2C₂H₆ +  O₂     →      4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Left hand side                      Right hand side

C = 4                                     C =  4

H = 12                                    H = 12

O = 2                                     O = 14

Step 4:

2C₂H₆ +  7O₂     →      4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Left hand side                      Right hand side

C = 4                                     C =  4

H = 12                                    H = 12

O = 14                                     O = 14
