Answer:
Ion-dipole forces
Explanation:
Na⁺ is a cation, that is, an ion with a positive charge.
NH₃ has polar covalent bonds (due to the difference in electronegativity between nitrogen and hydrogen). According to the VESPR theory, it has a trigonal pyramidal shape with a lone pair. As a consequence, it has a net dipole moment and the molecule is polar.
The intermolecular forces between Na⁺ (ion) and NH₃ (dipole) are ion-dipole forces.
Answer:
Oxygen and sulfur
Explanation:
Alloys consist of metals fused together sometimes with additional components, such as carbon, to prevent metals from corrosion.
Oxygen and sulfur are two compounds consisting of non-metal atoms, O and S. Combining oxygen with sulfur would actually produce sulfur dioxide, a gas, in contrast to a metallic substance that is fused with some other metal or carbon.
That's the reason why combination of sulfur and oxygen wouldn't produce an alloy: it would produce a gas.
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
<em>The slide could have broken due to the ramming of the objective (especially the high power objectives) into the slide on the stage of the microscope while trying to bring the object on the slide into focus.</em>
It is recommended to <u>start with the lowest objective while trying to focus a slide</u>. Thereafter, the next higher objective can be switched to and the image brought into focus once again. This can be repeated until the desired magnification of the image is reached.
However, <u>at higher objective powers, the coarse adjustment knob should be avoided </u>to avoid the objectives touching/breaking the slide. Instead, the fine adjustment knob should be used.
Hence, the breaking of the slide in the illustration could have been due to the use of the coarse adjustment knob at higher objective powers and the ramming of the objective into the slide.
