What kind of intermolecukar forces are in hf?
Hydrogen fluoride, with the chemical formula HF, is a colorless gas that is the principal source of fluorine. The type of intermolecular forces that exist in HF are London forces, dipole-dipole.
Why is HF a liquid when H2 is a gas?
The principal reason is the hydrogen bonding between HF molecules. The second reason is that London dispersion forces will be higher in HF because it has more electrons than H2
Why HF is less viscous than water?
due to more h-bonding in water as compared to Hf
The intramolecular hydrogen bonding can be determined by?
The intramolecular hydrogen bonding can be determined by
Explain the different between Hf and HF?
Hf is the element hafnium. A dense gray metal. HF is the compound hydrogen fluoride, a toxic, acidic gas.
What type of bonding HF is?
hydrogen bond
What is the dominant intermolecular force in HF?
Hydrogen bonding
Is hydrogen bonding strongest between molecules of H20 H2S H2Se or H2Te?
Hydrogen fluoride HF has the strongest hydrogen bonding. Water H2O and ammonia NH3 have the next strongest hydrogen bonding.
Why HF is a weaker acid then HCl?
in hf there is present strong hydrogen bonding and hydrogen being partially positive is entrapped with two stong partailly electronegative ions.
What kind of intermolecukar forces are in hf?
Hydrogen fluoride, with the chemical formula HF, is a colorless gas that is the principal source of fluorine. The type of intermolecular forces that exist in HF are London forces, dipole-dipole.
Why does HCl not forming hydrogen bonding?
The text book answer is that Cl is not electronegative enough (compared to HF where there is obvious H bonding present)
Is HF a weak acid?
Yes. HF is a weak acid. The HF molecules are stabilized by hydrogen bonding. As such the H+ ions are not released easily and it behaves like a weak acid.
What compound has hydrogen bonding between its molecules?
NH3, H2O, HF and several other compounds.
Why is HF a liquid when H2 is a gas?
The principal reason is the hydrogen bonding between HF molecules. The second reason is that London dispersion forces will be higher in HF because it has more electrons than H2
Why hydrogen bond in water is stronger than in HF and NH3?
In HF molecule hydrogen bonding is the strongest. The reason is that the partial positively charged hydrogen atom is entrapped between the two highly electronegative fluorine atoms.
What molecules listed can form hydrogen bonds hydrogen ammonia hydrochloric acid or hydrofluoric?
molecule cotaining hydrogen and electronegative atoms form hydrogen bonding
Is the bond between H and C covalent?
I think HF has a hydrogen bonding within its molecule, since a hydrogen bond is formed when a hydrogen atom forms a bonding with either flourine, nitrogen or oxygen...
