Ionic compound
At room temperature I2 is a molecular solid. Which of the following provides a characteristic of I2 with a correct explanation?
It is not a good conductor of electricity because it is nonpolar and does not produce ions in solution.
The image represents a portion of a crystal of lithium chloride (LiCl). Identify the smaller dark ion.
Li+
NH3 has a boiling point of -28oF. PH3 has a boiling point of -126oF. Both of these molecules has a pyramidal shape. The reason why it is more difficult to boil NH3 is because...
NH3 can form H-bonds and PH3 cannot.
Based on the data in the tables above, which of the following statements provides the best prediction for the boiling point of NaCl?
NaCl will have a lower boiling point than NaF because the coulombic attractions are weaker in NaCl than in NaF.
Predict which of these will have the higher boiling point: SiH4 or CH4
SiH4 because it is more polarizable
What is the shape of CH3Cl?
Tetrahedral
Which statement explains why a molecule of CH4 is nonpolar?
The geometric shape of a CH4 molecule distributes the charges symmetrically.
The water molecules are correctly surrounding the calcium ion to dissolve it.
True
True or False, chemical bonds are always stronger than IMF's.
True strength of imfs determine melting pt of covalent compounds
This image clearly shows us that
Water is polar
Which of the following will have the highest boiling point?
Xe
The sum of the charges on the ions in a formula unit of the compound is ___________.
Zero
Hexane, C6H14 has a boiling point of 68oC. Ethanol, C2H5OH has a boiling point of 78oC. Check all statements that are true.
ethanol must have stronger IMF's based on its higher boiling point. hydrogen bonding and LDF's are at cross purposes here. (One favors ethanol, the other favors hexane), In this case, the hydrogen bonding evidently "wins." ethanol has a higher point due to hydrogen bonding.
Which of the following are broken when water boils?
hydrogen bonds LDF dipole-dipole
Shape of HCN
liner
HBr is most likely to form a(n) ___________________ bond and ______________________
polar, dissolve in water
