Van der Waals forces hold molecules together by inducing temporary dipoles that attract each other. That is option C
Van Der Waals forces are example of those intermolecular forces which are weaker than ionic and covalent bonds that exists between molecules.
Van Der Waals forces was postulated by a Dutch physicist known as Van Der Waals. He postulated the existence of weak, short-range forces of attraction, which are independent of normal bonding forces, between non-polar molecules. He came to this conclusion after studying the of real gases at low temperatures and high pressures that:
electrons in a non-polar molecule such as hydrogen are close to one nucleus as to the other, although momentary concentration at one end of the molecule may occur, this momentary concentration of electron cloud on one side create a temporary dipole in the hydrogen molecule, that is, one side of the molecule acquires a partial negative charge while the other side acquires a partial positive charge of equal magnitude, the temporary dipole induces a similar dipole in an adjacent behavior molecule, this results in a temporary dipole-induced dipole attraction between the positive and negative ends of the adjacent molecules.This is how weak Van Der Waals forces are set up. Therefore, option C is CORRECT

a boy capable of swimming 2.1m/a in still water is swimming in a river with a 1.8 m/a current. At what angle must he swim in order to end up directly opposite his starting point?
Answer:
The boy must swim at an angle of 59°northwest to get to a position directly opposite his starting point.
Explanation:
To get to a point directly opposite his starting point, the boy must travel at an angle x, in a direction northwest of his starting point. The speed of the boy and the speed of the river current forms a right-angled triangle with an an opposite side of 1.8 m/a and a hypotenuse of 2.1 m/a having an angle x.
Sin x = opp/ hyp
Sin x = 1.8/2.1
x = sin⁻¹ (1.8/2.10
x = 58.99
x = 59°
Therefore, the boy must swim at an angle of 59° in the northwesterly direction to get to a position directly opposite his starting point.
6. Plants play a vital role in the environment because photosynthesis
ОООО
A. uses atmospheric oxygen and carbon dioxide to produce sugars and water.
B. uses atmospheric oxygen and water to produce carbon dioxide and water.
C. uses atmospheric carbon dioxide and water to produce sugars and oxygen.
D. uses atmospheric oxygen to produce sugars and water.
Plants play a vital role in the environment because photosynthesis uses atmospheric carbon dioxide and water to produce sugars and oxygen. Option C is correct.
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose (sugar). This process occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells and requires the presence of sunlight, carbon dioxide (CO₂), and water (H₂O).
During photosynthesis, plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through tiny openings called stomata in their leaves. At the same time, they take in water from the soil through their roots. Through a series of complex chemical reactions, the energy from sunlight is used to combine carbon dioxide and water, resulting in the production of glucose (sugar) and the release of oxygen (O₂) as a byproduct.
This process is represented by the equation:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O + sunlight → C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose) + 6O₂
Plants use the glucose produced through photosynthesis as a source of energy for various metabolic processes and growth. The released oxygen is essential for the survival of other organisms, including humans, as it is used in cellular respiration to release energy from glucose.
Hence, C. is the correct option.

Which are the chemical properties of water?
Answer:
See explanation.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, we can realize that water has a very simple atomic structure which consists of two hydrogen atoms bonded to one oxygen atom. The nature of the atomic structure of water causes its molecules to have unique electrochemical properties. The hydrogen side of the water molecule has a slight positive charge whereas at the other side of the molecule a negative charge exists. This molecular polarity causes water to be a powerful solvent and is responsible for its strong surface tension.
Moreover, water is involved in several both inorganic and organic chemical reactions leading to hydration, for example, the conversion of alkenes to alcohols, the hydrolysis of acyl halides, anhydrides, esters and amides to carboxylic acids and the hydration of a raft of inorganic salts that exist as hydrates only, such as copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate and so.

Which statements about spontaneous processes are true? Select all that apply: A spontaneous process is one that occurs very quickly.
Answer: Here are the complete options.
A spontaneous process is one that occurs very quickly. A process that is spontaneous in one direction is nonspontaneous in the other direction under a given set of conditions, provided the system is not at equilibrium. A spontaneous process is one that occurs without continuous input of energy from outside the system. A process is spontaneous if it must be continuously forced or driven.
The correct option is
A spontaneous process is one that occurs without continuous input of energy from outside the system.
A process that is spontaneous in one direction is nonspontaneous in the other direction under a given set of conditions, provided the system is not at equilibrium
Explanation:
spontaneous process is one that occurs without continuous input of energy from outside the system and occur on its own because spontaneous processes are thermodynamically favorable characterized by a decrease in the system's free energy, they do not need to be driven by an outside source of energy. Which means that the initial energy is higher than the final energy.
A process that is spontaneous in one direction is nonspontaneous in the other direction under a given set of conditions, provided the system is not at equilibrium which will result to The sign of ΔG will change from positive to negative (or vice versa) where T = ΔH/ΔS.

g All of the molecules below have polar bonds but only one of the molecules is a polar molecule. Which one is a polar molecule? A) C2F2 B) C2Cl4 C) CO2 D) NF3 E) CF4
Answer: [tex]NF_3[/tex]
Explanation:
Geometrical symmetry of the molecule and the polarity of the bonds determine the polarity of the molecule.
The molecule that has zero dipole moment that means it is a geometrically symmetric molecule and the molecule which has some net dipole moment means it is a geometrically asymmetric molecule.
As the molecule is symmetric, the dipole moment will be zero as dipole moments cancel each other and the molecule will be non-polar.
As the molecule is asymmetric, the dipole moment will not be zero and the molecule will be polar.
Example: [tex]NF_3[/tex]
Thus, we can say that [tex]NF_3[/tex] is a polar molecule.

A. Electrostatics.
B. Apolar.
C. lónicos.
D. Hydrogen bridges.
electrostatic and ionic are definitely not the answer because they have high melting point
hydrogen bonds are too weak and not permanent.
so the answer is apolar as it is soluble in polar solvents (water)
Answer:
B. Nonpolar
Explanation:
The low melting point tells you the compound is not ionic, metallic, or a network solid.
It is almost certainly a molecular solid.
It does not conduct electricity, so it is not metallic (which we have already ruled out).
It is insoluble in polar solvents (water) and soluble in nonpolar solvents (gasoline).
Since like dissolves like, the molecule is nonpolar.
The type of links must be nonpolar.
A flask contains 6g hydrogen gas and 64 g oxygen at rtp the partial pressure of hydrogen gas in the flask of the total pressure (p)will be
A.2/3p
B.3/5p
C.2/5p
D.1/3p
Answer this with reason
Answer:
B.3/5p
Explanation:
For this question, we have to remember "Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures". This law says that the pressure of the mixture would be equal to the sum of the partial pressure of each gas.
Additionally, we have a proportional relationship between moles and pressure. In other words, more moles indicate more pressure and vice-versa.
[tex]P_i=P_t_o_t_a_l*X_i[/tex]
Where:
[tex]P_i[/tex]=Partial pressure
[tex]P_t_o_t_a_l[/tex]=Total pressure
[tex]X_i[/tex]=mole fraction
With this in mind, we can work with the moles of each compound if we want to analyze the pressure. With the molar mass of each compound we can calculate the moles:
moles of hydrogen gas
The molar mass of hydrogen gas ([tex]H_2[/tex]) is 2 g/mol, so:
[tex]6g~H_2\frac{1~mol~H_2}{2~g~H_2}=~3~mol~H_2[/tex]
moles of oxygen gas
The molar mass of oxygen gas ([tex]O_2[/tex]) is 32 g/mol, so:
[tex]64g~H_2\frac{1~mol~H_2}{32~g~H_2}=~2~mol~O_2[/tex]
Now, total moles are:
Total moles = 2 + 3 = 5
With this value, we can write the partial pressure expression for each gas:
[tex]P_H_2=\frac{3}{5}*P_t_o_t_a_l[/tex]
[tex]P_O_2=\frac{2}{5}*P_t_o_t_a_l[/tex]
So, the answer would be 3/5P.

An electrolysis cell has two electrodes. Which statement is correct? A. Reduction takes place at the anode, which is positively charged. B. Reduction takes place at the cathode, which is positively charged. C. Reduction takes place at the dynode, which is uncharged. D. Reduction takes place at the cathode, which is negatively charged. E. Reduction takes place at the anode, which is negatively charged.
Answer:
D. Reduction takes place at the cathode, which is negatively charged.
Explanation:
In an electrolytic cell there are two electrodes; the cathode and the anode. The anode is the positive electrode while the cathode is the negative electrode. Oxidation occurs at the anode while reduction occurs at the cathode.
At the anode, species give up electrons and become positively charged ions while at the cathode species accept electrons and become reduced.
Calculate LaTeX: \DeltaΔGº for a voltaic cell with Eºcell = +0.24 V if the overall reaction involves a 3 electron reduction.
Answer:
-69 kJ
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
Standard cell potential (E°cell): +0.24 V
Electrons involved (n): 3 mol
Step 2: Calculate the standard Gibbs free energy change (ΔG°) for the voltaic cell
We will use the following expression.
ΔG° = -n × F × E°cell
where,
F is Faraday's constant (96,485 C/mol e⁻)
ΔG° = -n × F × E°cell
ΔG° = -3 mol e⁻ × 96,485 C/mol e⁻ × 0.24 V
ΔG° = -69 kJ
The standard free energy change for a reaction can be calculated using the equation ΔG∘′=−nFΔE∘′ ΔG∘′=−nFΔE∘′ where nn is the number of electrons transferred, FF is Faraday's constant, 96.5 kJ·mol−1·V−1, and ΔE∘′ΔE∘′ is the difference in reduction potential. For each of the given reactions, determine the number of electrons transferred (n)(n) and calculate standard free energy (ΔG∘′)(ΔG∘′) . Consider the half-reactions and overall reaction for reaction 1. half-reactions:fumarate 2−+2H+CoQH2↽−−⇀succinate−↽−−⇀CoQ+2H+ half-reactions:fumarate−+2H+↽−−⇀succinate2−CoQH2↽−−⇀CoQ+2H+ overall reaction:fumarate2−+CoQH2↽−−⇀succinate2−+CoQΔE∘′=−0.009 V
Answer:
ΔG°′ = 1.737 KJ/mol
Explanation:
The reaction involves the transfer of two electrons in the form of hydride ions from reduced coenzyme Q, CoQH₂ to fumarae to form succinate and oxidized coenzyme Q, CoQ.
The overall equation of reaction is as follows:
fumarate²⁻ + CoQH₂ ↽⇀ succinate²⁻ + CoQ ; ΔE∘′=−0.009 V
Using the equation for standard free energy change; ΔG°′ = −nFΔE°′
where n = 2; F = 96.5 KJ.V⁻¹.mol⁻¹; ΔE°′ = 0.009 V
ΔG°′ = - 2 * 96.5 KJ.V⁻¹.mol⁻¹ * 0.009 V
ΔG°′ = 1.737 KJ/mol
Given the data: Ag2O(s), = ‑31.1 kJ mol-1, S° = +121.3 J mol-1 K-1 Ag(s), = 0.00 kJ mol-1, S° = +42.55 J mol-1 K-1 O2(g), = 0.00 kJ mol-1, S° = +205.0 J mol-1 K-1 Calculate the temperature at which = 0 for the reaction, Ag2O(s) → 2 Ag(s) + ½ O2(g). Assume that, since the physical states do not change, and are independent of temperature between ‑50.0 °C and 950.0 °C.
Answer:
[tex]T=469.1K\\\\T=195.9\°C[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, for the given decomposition reaction, we can compute the enthalpy of reaction considering the enthalpy of formation of each involved species (products minus reactants):
[tex]\Delta _rH=2\Delta _fH_{Ag}+\frac{1}{2} \Delta _fH_{O_2}-\Delta _fH_{Ag_2O}\\\\\Delta _rH=2*0.00+\frac{1}{2} *0.00-(-31.1)=31.1kJ/mol[/tex]
Next, the entropy of reaction considering the standard entropy for each involved species (products minus reactants):
[tex]\Delta _rS=2S_{Ag}+\frac{1}{2} S_{O_2}-S_{Ag_2O}\\\\\Delta _rS=2(42.55)+\frac{1}{2} (205.0)-(121.3)=66.3J/(mol*K)[/tex]
Next, since the Gibbs free energy of reaction is computed in terms of both the enthalpy and entropy of reaction at the unknown temperature, for such Gibbs energy equaling 0, the temperature (in K and °C) turns out:
[tex]\Delta _rG=\Delta _rH-T\Delta _rS\\\\0=31.1kJ/mol-T(66.3\frac{J}{mol*K}*\frac{1kJ}{1000J} )\\\\T=\frac{31.1kJ/mol}{0.0663kJ/(mol*K)} =469.1K\\\\T=195.9\°C[/tex]
Which is within the given rank.

A 0.753 g sample of a monoprotic acid is dissolved in water and titrated with 0.250 M NaOH. What is the molar mass of the acid if 21.5 mL of the NaOH solution is required to neutralize the sample?
Answer:
[tex]MM_{acid}=140.1g/mol[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, since the acid is monoprotic, we can notice a 1:1 molar ratio between, therefore, for the titration at the equivalence point, we have:
[tex]n_{acid}=n_{base} \\\\V_{acid}M_{acid}=V_{base}M_{base}\\\\n_{acid}=V_{base}M_{base}[/tex]
Thus, solving for the moles of the acid, we obtain:
[tex]n_{acid}=0.0215L*0.250\frac{mol}{L}=5.375x10^{-3}mol[/tex]
Then, by using the mass of the acid, we compute its molar mass:
[tex]MM_{acid}=\frac{0.753g}{5.375x10^{-5}mol} \\\\MM_{acid}=140.1g/mol[/tex]

Suppose that a 100 mL sample of ideal gas is held in a piston-cylinder apparatus. Its volume could be increased to 200 mL by
Answer:
e. reducing the pressure from 608 torr to 0.40 atm at constant temperature.
Explanation:
According to Boyle's law when a gas is at the same temperature and there is a mass in a closed container so the pressure and the volume changes in the opposite direction
So here the equation is
[tex]P_1V_1=P_2V_2[/tex]
Now we choose the options
where,
[tex]V_1 = 100\ mL = 0.1\ L\\\\V_2 = 200\ mL = 0.2\ L[/tex]
[tex]P_1 = 608\ torr = 0.8\ atm \\\\P_2= 0.4\ atm[/tex]
Now applying these values to the above equation
So,
P1V1=P2V2
[tex]P_1V_1=P_2V_2[/tex]
[tex]0.8\times0.1 = 0.4\times0.2[/tex]
0.8 = 0.8
Hence, it is proved
Write a net ionic equation for the reaction that occurs when aqueous solutions of hydrofluoric acid and sodium hydroxide are combined. (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Use the pull-down boxes to specify states such as (aq) or (s). If a box is not needed, leave it blank. If needed, use H for the hydronium ion.)
Answer:
The net ionic reaction is : H⁺ (aq) + OH⁻ (aq) ---> H₂O (l)
Explanation:
The reaction between aqueous solutions of hydrofluoric acid and sodium hydroxide is an example of a neutralization reaction.
A neutralization reaction is a reaction between and acid and an abase to produce salt and water only.
Hydrofluoric acid is the acid while sodium hydroxide is the base. during the reaction the hydrofluoric acid will produce hydrogen and fluoride ions, while sodium hydroxide will produce hydroxide and sodium ions. The hydroxide and hydrogen ions will combine to produce water while the sodium and fluoride ions remain in solution as ions.
The equation of the reaction is as follows:
H⁺F⁻ (aq) + Na⁺OH⁻ (aq) ----> Na⁺F⁻ (aq) + H₂O (l)
Since the sodium and fluoride ions appear on both sides of the equation, they are known as spectator ions and are cancelled out to give the net ionic equation.
The net ionic reaction is : H⁺ (aq) + OH⁻ (aq) ---> H₂O (l)

Calculate the equilibrium constant K c for the following overall reaction: AgCl(s) + 2CN –(aq) Ag(CN) 2 –(aq) + Cl –(aq) For AgCl, K sp = 1.6 × 10 –10; for Ag(CN) 2 –, K f = 1.0 × 10 21.
Answer:
1.6x10¹¹ = Kc
Explanation:
For the reaction:
AgCl(s) + 2CN⁻(aq) ⇄ Ag(CN)₂⁻(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)
Kc is defined as:
Kc = [Ag(CN)₂⁻] [Cl⁻] / [CN⁻]²
Ksp of AgCl is:
AgCl(s) ⇄ Ag⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)
Where Ksp is:
Ksp = [Ag⁺] [Cl⁻] = 1.6x10⁻¹⁰
In the same way, Kf of Ag(CN)₂⁻ is:
Ag⁺(aq) + 2CN⁻ ⇄ Ag(CN)₂⁻
Kf = [Ag(CN)₂⁻] / [CN⁻]² [Ag⁺] = 1.0x10²¹
The multiplication of Kf with Ksp gives:
[Ag⁺] [Cl⁻] * [Ag(CN)₂⁻] / [CN⁻]² [Ag⁺] = Ksp*Kf
[Ag(CN)₂⁻] [Cl⁻] / [CN⁻]² = Ksp*Kf
Obtaining the same expression of the first reaction
That means Ksp*Kf = Kc
1.6x10⁻¹⁰*1.0x10²¹ = Kc
1.6x10¹¹ = KcWhat is the mass number of an element
