Boiling point of covalent compound depen...

Boiling point of covalent compound depends on intennolecular force. Intermolecular forces are the force of attraction and repulsion between interacting particles (atoms and molecules). This term does not include the electrostatic forces that exist between the two oppositely charged ions and the forces that hold atoms of a molecule together i.e., covalent bonds

Which of the following statements are usually correct for carbon compounds ? These a) are good conductors of electricity b) are poor conductors of electricity c) have strone forces of attraction between their molecules d) do not have strong forces of attraction between their molecules .

The geometry of a molecule depends upon the repulsions between electron pairs present in the valance shell of the central atom. LP - LP repulsions are greater than LP-BP which are greater than BP - BP. A pi bond can not decide the geometry of a molecule because pi bond has no independent exsistance. Deviations in bond angle are due to the presence of lone pairs. Which of the following differs from the rest in geometry ?

In the Bohr model of a hydrogen atom, the centripetal force is furnished by the coulomb attraction between the proton and the electron. If a_(0) is the radius of the ground state orbit, m is the mass, e is the charge on the elytron and epsilon_(0) is the vacuum permittivity, the speed of the electron is :

Hydrogen bond is a weak electrostatic force of attraction between covalently bonded hydrogen and more electronegative species like F,O and N. It play an important role in influencing many physical constants. It is a weaker bond than covalent bond but stronger than vanderWaal forces of attraction. Hydrogen bonding is absent in

Ionic bond is defined as the electrostatic force of attraction holding the oppositely charged ions. Ionic compounds are mostly crystalline solids having high melting and boiling points, electrical conductivity in molten state, solubility in water etc., Covalent bond is defined as the force which binds atoms of same or different elements by mutual sharing of electrons in a covalent bond. Covalent compounds are solids, liquids or gases. They are low melting and boiling point compounds. They are more soluble in non polar solvents. The valence electrons not involved in fonnation of covalent bonds are called
