The vapors of some chemicals used in the chemistry laboratory, especially isocyanates, can react and bond the contact lens to the eye.
(FYI - the family of isocyanates include Superglue..I wouldn't want to have been the person who discovered this unfortunate reaction!)
Boiling point of a compound is determined by the strength of intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules present in it. Stronger the intermolecular forces of attraction, higher will be the boiling point.
Ionic compounds show ion-ion interactions which are the strongest among all. Ion-dipole interactions are shown when ionic solutes are dissolved in polar solvents. Hydrogen bonding is also a relatively stronger force that is present between H atom and an electronegative atom like F, O and N(
) . All polar molecules show dipole-dipole interaction (
and
). Dispersion forces are the weakest intermolecular forces due to momentary dipoles between electron clouds and nucleus.
Among the given compounds,
has dispersion forces as the major intermolecular forces of attraction. So they they exhibit the weakest IMF, hence have the lowest boiling point.
Answer:
The answer is B
Explanation:
Less air means less air pressure. At a certain point, there is very little air pressure to push against the outward pressure of the helium inside the balloon. It will then expand until the rubber breaks, and the balloon bursts
