There are three sets of sketches below, showing the same pure molecular compound (hydrogen chloride, molecular formula ) at thre
e different temperatures. The sketches are drawn as if a sample of hydrogen chloride were under a microscope so powerful that individual atoms could be seen. Only one sketch in each set is correct. Use the slider to choose the correct sketch in each set. You may need the following information: melting point of : -114.8 boiling point of : -85.1
1 answer:
Answer:
The correct answer is - option C.
Explanation:
Given: the melting point of HCl is
-114.8 °C, which suggests that below this temperature HCl will be solid.
and, since the boiling point of HCl is - 85.1 °C. It is also suggested that above this temperature HCl will be gas, Therefore.
Solid -114.8 - Ordered arrangement
Liquid -85.1c - Less orderly arranged
Gaseous - Least orderly arranged
Thus, at —90 °C, HCl will be present 'in the liquid state, At — 1 °C, HCl will be present in the gaseous state and at -129 °C, HCl will be present in the solid-state. So, the molecules will be organized in a more orderly manner .
Thus, the correct answer is - option C

Explanation:
Dipole moment is defined as the measurement of the separation of two opposite electrical charges.
is a bent shaped molecule with a dipole moment of 1.87.
is also a bent shaped molecule with a dipole moment of 1.10.
is a also a bent shaped molecule and has a negligible dipole moment.
has a dipole moment of 0.29.
Therefore, given molecules are arranged according to their increasing dipole moment as follows.
