Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The compound in the given pair that is expected to have a higher boiling point is to be predicted. The explanation for the prediction is to be given.
Concept introduction:
The compound with strong intermolecular forces has a higher boiling point. Hydrogen bonding requires a potential H-donor and acceptor atom. The electronegative atom such as N, O, or F attached directly to a hydrogen atom serves as a potential H-bond donor while atoms with lone pairs such as N, O, and F serve as potential H-bond acceptors. In the two molecules given, the greater the number of potential H-bond donors and acceptors, the greater is the strength of hydrogen bonding, thus, higher is the boiling point.

- Please help with the problem in the picture.arrow_forwardProblem What amount (mol) of each ion is in each solution?(a) 5.0 mol of ammonium sulfate dissolved in water(b) 78.5 g of cesium bromide dissolved in water(c) 7.42×1022 formula units of copper(II) nitrate dissolved in water(d) 35 mL of 0.84 M zinc chloridePlan We write an equation that shows 1 mol of compound dissociating into ions. (a) We multiply the number of moles of ions by 5.0. (b) We first convert grams to moles. (c) We first convert formula units to moles. (d) We first convert molarity and volume to moles.arrow_forwardHaving difficulty with this question.arrow_forward
