Chemical Bonding Questions and Answers

Physical Chemistry
Chemical BondingWhat kind of intermolecular forces act between a hydrogen bromide molecule and a chloromethane (CH,CI) molecule?
Note: If there is more than one type of intermolecular force that acts, be sure to list them all, with a comma between the name of each force.

Physical Chemistry
Chemical BondingUnlike soap, which is ionic, some liquid laundry detergents are neutral molecules. Explain how the
following molecule behaves like soap and cleans away dirt.
The molecule serves as a catalyst so the dirt and water can bond directly.
The molecule ionizes readily.
The molecule displaces the dirt by bonding to the clothing.
The molecule has a highly polar end and a nonpolar tail.

This equation is the half-life equation (one version of it), but it has already
been algebraically rearranged to solve for the half-life, h.
1) Calculate the half-life of the simulated isotope using A. A. and t from your simulation. Units for half-life
should be in seconds for this simulation, and the number should be reasonable (i.e., a positive value
less than 100). Show your work. (4 pts)
