Answer:

dispersion forces

Explanation:

SO3 is a trigonal planar molecule. All the dipoles of the S-O bonds cancel out making the molecule to be a nonpolar molecule.

The primary intermolecular force in nonpolar molecules is the London dispersion forces. As expected, the London dispersion forces is the intermolecular force present in SO3.

Hence SO3 is a symmetrical molecule having only weak dispersion forces acting between its molecules.

Which of the following statements, if true, would support the claim that the NO3− ion, represented above, has three resonance st
tester [92]

Answer:

One of the bonds in nitrate is shorter than the other two.

Explanation:

We would firstly need to draw the Lewis structure for nitrate anion. To do this, let's follow the standard steps:

  • calculate the total number of valence electrons: five from nitrogen, each oxygen contributes 6, so a total of 18 from oxygen atoms, as well as one from the negative charge, we have a total of 24 valence electrons;
  • assign the central atom, usually this is the atom which is single; in this case, we have nitrogen as our central atom;
  • assign single bonds to all the terminal atoms (oxygen atoms);
  • assign octets to the terminal atoms and calculate the number of electrons assigned;
  • the number of electrons assigned is 24, so no lone pairs are present on nitrogen;
  • calculate the formal charges: each oxygen has a formal charge of -1 (formal charge is calculated subtracting the sum of lone pair electrons and bonds from the number of valence electrons of that atom); nitrogen has a formal charge of +2;
  • nitrogen doesn't have an octet as well, so we'll both minimize its formal charge and make it obtain an octet if we make one double bond N=O.

Therefore, we may have 3 resonance structures, as this double bond might be formed with any of the 3 oxygen atoms.

By definition, double bonds are shorter than single ones, so one of the bonds is shorter than the other two.

Explain why kerosene is used to remove stains from clothes ​
yarga [219]

Answer:

White spirits (used in lighter fluid), turpentine and Kerosene can cope with fat/oil stains, tar/asphalt and some adhesives. Many pre-wash spot treatments contain solvents. Mild Acids - such as white vinegar, cream of tartar or lemon juice help remove rust and some food stains.

Hope This Helps This Is All I Know!!

What is condensation? Give an example
I am Lyosha [343]
Condesation is: water that collects as droplets on a cold surface when humid air is in contact with it. An example would be: having a cold soda on a hot day, the can "sweats." Water molecules in the air as a vapor hit the colder surface of the can and turn into liquid water.
