1. Polar compounds 2. Non-polar compounds Answer and Explanation: HCl is a polar compound Polarity changes occur when there is a difference in electronegativities between atoms or molecules. In HCl, hydrogen is
It is shown that the total ozone depletion in the polar vortex reached 38% (approx. 170 DU) by the end of March that is larger than the 30% of the previous record in 1996. Asides from the long extension of the cold stratospheric NAT PSC period, the amplitude of...
Why is a hydrogen bond the strongest type of bond between molecules? If the difference in electronegativity between two atoms in a molecule is very large, the forces holding the atoms together are likely to be: a. dipole-dipole b. ionic c. non-polar covalent d. ...
Some have pointed out that distilled water is also ultra-low TDS (zero actually) and hence assume it would taste the same as iceberg or rainwater. This is not the case, because unlike distilled water, these natural sources come from precipitation which absorbs air that includes nitrogen and ox...
Is the compound C2H3Cl polar or nonpolar and why? Intermolecular forces:Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction and repulsion between interacting particles that are atoms and molecules. Attractive intermolecular forces are also known as van der Waals forces. Intermolecular forces include ...
Why does NO2 dimerise? Why are proto-oncogenes dominant? Why are mosses so short? Why is dichloromethane polar? Why is giardiasis more common in developing countries? Why are some syndesmoses more flexible than others? Why does oxygen affinity increase with more BPG? Why isn't earthshine mo...
Why are polar solvents best suited for the SN1 reaction? Why is NaI in acetone used as a solvent for SN2 reactions and AgNO3 for SN1 reactions? Explain why 1-Bromo-2,2-dimethylpropane has difficulty undergoing both sn^2 and sn^1 reactions. Can it undergo e^2 and e^1...
Why are polar solvents best suited for the SN1 reaction? Why is it good to form only one precipitate when analyzing your unknowns? Why is Nylon-6,10 an alternating copolymer and not a homopolymer? Why does a standardized N a O H solution need to be kept in a closed container? Why is...
Explain why a methyl group is a mildly activating group while a methoxy group is strongly activating. Explain why NO2 is more likely to exhibit resonance than CO2. Is Br- a nucleophile or an electrophile? Explain. Why isn't hydrogen iodide hydrogen monoiodide? Why is SiH_4 non polar? Why...
How can electronegativity cause a covalent bond to be polar? How is a hydrogen bond different from a covalent bond? Why is histidine double-bonded nitrogen protonated? Is NO2 an ionic or covalent bond? What type of bonding does ammonia have? How are ionic and covalent bonds different from ...
