Why intramolecular forces stronger?
Intramolecuar forces are covalent bonds these involve the sharing of electrons. Intermolecular bonds are electrostatic in origin such as hydrogen bonds and London disprion forces which involve attractions between small charges.
If Electrons and protons have the same charge and therefore attract each other?
Electrons and protons do have opposite charges and do show some attraction, although there are many more intermolecular attractions as well.
What are the attractive forces of plasma?
The attractive forces are electrical forces between opposing charges.
Do electric charges move?
Yes, a charge is the fundamental electric property to which the mutual attractions or repulsions between electrons or protons is attributed. Electric charges are constantly flowing.
Do two neutral objects attract?
No, neutral charges don't have electric attractions between them.
Do all electric charges MOVE?
Yes, a charge is the fundamental electric property to which the mutual attractions or repulsions between electrons or protons is attributed. Electric charges are constantly flowing.
What has higher melting point NaOH or CH3OH?
NaOH has the higher melting point. The reason is since NaOH is an ionic compound, thus meaning that the intermolecular forces (the forces that hold the compound together) between Sodium+ and Hydroxide- are ionic - ionic forces. The charges keep them together. Ionic forces are ALOT stronger than other intermolecular forces such as dispersion, dipole-dipole, or even hydrogen bonding. CH3OH (Methanol) has a lower melting point that Sodium Hydroxide since the intermolecular forces it entails are: Dispersion, dipole-dipole, and hydrogen bonding between Hydrogen and Oxygen. It will take LESS energy to break these attractions, than the energy required to break the attraction forces between the ionic compound NaOH.
Why does an electron stay in an atom instead of separating itself from it?
This is related to the attraction between opposing electric charges: the protons (positive) attract the electrons (negative).
Can you bring charges against opposing counsel?
only if he does something illegal.
When slight attractions that develop between oppositely charged regions of nearby molecules are called?
When molecules are close together, a slight attraction can develop between the oppositely charged regions of nearby molecules. Chemists call such intermolecular forces of attraction van der Waals forces. (This also occurs in the phenomenon known as Hydrogen-bonding.) What is the alternate of a slight attraction - it is called the covalent bond. Note that an ionic bond is a type of covalent bond.
Ions hold together in an ionic bond because?
They are attracted to each other due to their opposing charges.
How does the African Bull elephant charge?
When it gets angry it decides to get physical and charges at it's opposing enemy.
