Why does hydrogen fluoride have a high boiling point

Chemistry
1 answer:
mezya [45]2 years ago
3 0

The intermolecular bonding for HF is van der Waals, whereas for HCL, the intermolecular bonding is hydrogen. Since the van der Waals bond is stronger than hydrogen, HF will have a higher boiling temperature. Since the covalent bond is stronger than van der Waals, HF will have a higher boiling temperature.

2. A chemical analysis of a sample provides the following elemental data:
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

C3 H6 O2

Explanation:

first divide their mass by their respective molar mass, we get:

30.4 moles of C

61.2 moles of H

20.25 moles of O

now divide everyone by the smallest one of them then we get

C= 1.5

H= 3

O= 1

since our answer of C is not near to any whole number so we will multiply all of them by 2

so,

C3 H6 O2 is our answer

The equilibrium constant for the reaction of carbon monoxide with water is 1.845. if 1.00 mol of each reactant is placed in a 2.
SpyIntel [72]
[CO] = 1 mol / 2L = 0.5 M

[
According to the equation:

and by using the ICE table:

             CO(g) + H2O(g) ↔   CO2(g) + H2(g)

initial     0.5            0.5                    0          0

change  -X              -X                   +X         +X
     
Equ       (0.5-X)       (0.5-X)                     X            X

when Kc = X^2 * (0.5-X)^2

by substitution:

1.845 = X^2 * (0.5-X)^2  by solving for X 

∴X = 0.26

∴ [CO2] = X = 0.26

How many moles of helium are 8.84×10^24 atoms of He?
viva [34]

Answer:

14.77 mol.

Explanation:

  • It is known that every 1.0 mole of compound or element contains Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10²³) of molecules or atoms.

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

1.0 mole of He contains → 6.022 x 10²³ atoms.

??? mole of He contains → 8.84 x 10²⁴ atoms.

<em>∴ The no. of moles of He contains (8.84 x 10²⁴ atoms) </em>= (1.0 mol)(8.84 x 10²⁴ atoms)/(6.022 x 10²³ atoms) =<em> 14.77 mol.</em>

Give explanations for the large drops in melting point from C to Si and from Ge to Sn.
____ [38]

As we move down the group, the metallic bond becomes more stable and the formation of forming covalent bond decreases down the group due to the large size of elements.

Covalent and metallic bonding leads to higher melting points. Due to a decrease in attractive forces from carbon to lead there is a drop in melting point.

Carbon forms large covalent molecules than silicon and hence has a higher melting point than silicon.

Similarly, Ge also forms a large number of covalent bonds and has a smaller size as compared to that of Sn. Hence melting point decreases from Ge to Sn.

The order will be C>Si>Ge>Pb>Sn.

Fission and fusion reactions both release energy. However, only fusion reactions
miv72 [106K]
Answer:
<span>D) combine light nuclei
</span>
Explanation:
Fission and fusion both deal with the alteration of atoms in order to produce energy. However, they are actually opposite processes, this is because:
1- Fission occurs when an atomic nucleus is split/divided into two forming two atoms
2- Fusion occurs when two light atomic nuclei combine together to form a single atom.

Hope this helps :)
