12. Compare and contrast hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions.

Explanation:

Van der Waals interactions occur between any two or more molecules. They are caused by a fluctuation in electron density, as electrons are not actually fixed in a shell, but actually freely moving as a 'cloud of electron density'. This means that sometimes one end of a molecule can become more partially negatively charged as all electrons move to that side, and conversely it can attract the more partially positive end of a molecule (that has little electrons).

Hydrogen bonds only occur between molecules that contain oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine bonded to a hydrogen atom.

Hydrogen bonding is also the strongest intermolecular force there is, but not strong in comparison to ionic and covalent bonds. Therefore, hydrogen bonds are much stronger than Van der Waals forces. Hydrogen bonds only form if oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine are bonded to a hydrogen atom, as they have the greatest electronegativity differences (look at an electronegativity table), and when the overall molecule is polar (have unequal charges). This allows the molecule to be able to attract another molecule from one of the bonded atoms to a hydrogen atom.

Ultra Clorox bleach is 6.68% sodium hypochlorite in water. How much of each is needed to make an 800.mL bottle?
sweet-ann [11.9K]
If we have 6.68% NaClO, it is the same as saying--> 6.68 grams NaClO= 100 mL of solution. we can use this as a conversion. 

800. mL (6.68 mL/ 100 mL)= 53.4 mL

solution = solute + solvent

solute= NaClO
solvent= H2O

solvent= 800-53.4= 747 mL of H2O

so, we you need 53.4 mL of NaClO and 747 mL of water or 53.4 grams of NaClO and 747 mL of water

Identify the state of matter for A, B, and C.
drek231 [11]

Explanation:

A) particles are close together in random positions with about equal kinetic energy and intermolecular forces.

These points are about liquid state.

B) particles are close together in fixed positions with low kinetic energy

These points satisfy the qualities of Solid state

C)particles are far apart with greater kinetic energy and low intermolecular forces.

The above qualities are for Gaseous state of matter

A) Liquid

B)Solid

C)Gas

A carpet sells for $28.99 a square yard. What is the price of the carpet per square meter?
9966 [12]

It is given that the price of the carpet is $ 28.99 per square yard

Step 1: Convert square yard to square meter

1 square yard = 0.836 square meter

Step 2: Calculate the cost/square meter

Now based on the relation in step (1) we can write

0.836 square meter of carpet costs $ 28.99

Therefore the cost of 1 square meter of the carpet would be

= $ 28.99 * 1 sq meter/0.836 sq meter

= $ 34.68

Single and double replacement
MrMuchimi

Answer:

Explanation:

A single replacement or single displacement reaction is a reaction in which one substance replaces another.

            A  +   BC →   AC + B

The replacement of an ion in solution by a metal higher in the activity series is a special example of this reaction type.

The relative positions of the elements in the activity series provides the driving force for single displacement reactions.

A double replacement reaction is one in which there is an actual exchange of partners between reacting species. This reaction is more common between ionic substances;

              AB + CD → AC + BD

Such reactions are usually driven by;

  • formation of precipitation
  • formation of water and a gaseous product
