Answer:
They are held together by hydrogen bonds
Explanation:
Hydrogen bonds are special dipole-dipole attractions between polar molecules in which a hydrogen atom is directly joined to a highly electronegative atom(oxygen or nitorgen or fluorine).
Such molecules includes water, alkanoic acids, ammonia and amines.
A hydrogen nucleus has a high concentration of positive charge. The bond is actually an electrostatic attraction between the hydrogen atom of one molecule and the electronegative atom(O or N or F).
Hydrogen bonds are very effective in binding molecules into larger units. Most substances that joins with hydrogen bonds have a higher boiling point and lower volatility.
This is why we have a strong intermolecular bond between water molecules.
Answer:
1,000 meters in 1 kilometer
Explanation:
In an endothermic reaction products are <u>HIGHER </u>than reactants in potential energy and <u>LESS </u>stable.
Explanation:
Energy is input into the reaction in an endothermic reaction. This means the products are of a higher energy level than the reactants. Therefore the reaction increases Gibb's free energy and reduces entropy. Remember in thermodynamic stability involves an increase in entropy and a decrease in Gibbs free energy. Therefore the products are less stable than the reactants. This is why endothermic reactions do not occur spontaneously like exothermic reactions.
Atomic mass is the mass of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. Molar mass the mass of a given substance divided by its amount of substance in (mol) .
