Answer:
<em>10.328 m</em>
Explanation:
normal atmospheric pressure = 101325 Pa
density of water at 25 °C = 1.0 g/cm^3 = 1000 kg/m^3
pressure = pgh
where p = density
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2
h = height of column
imputing values, we have
101325 = 1000 x 9.81 x h
height of column h = 101325/9810 = <em>10.328 m</em>
This interaction must be one of the intermolecular forces, particularly, Van der Waals forces. From the description given, this force is called <em>induced dipole-induced dipole forces</em>. Dipole is defined as the separation of positive and negative charges. This type of intermolecular force is very weak compared to hydrogen bonding.
I am not going to do your work for you. However, just a reminder that a science experiment must be able to yield the same results if done in the same conditions by another scientist.
