CH4 has four even repulsive units.So its shape is tetrahedral.NH3 has 3 units including a lone pair.So its shape is pyramidal

What pair of molecules has the strongest dipole - dipole interactions co2-co2 or co2-ch4 or nh3-nh3 or nh3-ch4 or ch4-ch4.?

The pair of molecules with the strongest dipole-dipole interactions would be NH3-NH3 because ammonia (NH3) is a polar molecule with a significant dipole moment, leading to stronger attractions compared to the other options listed.


Number ammonia molecules in 3.75g of CH4?

To find the number of ammonia molecules in 3.75g of CH4, you first need to convert 3.75g of CH4 to moles using the molar mass. Then, you need to use the mole ratio between CH4 and NH3 to find the number of ammonia molecules in the given amount of CH4. The mole ratio for CH4 to NH3 is 1:3, as 1 molecule of CH4 produces 3 molecules of NH3 in the balanced chemical equation.


Put the following in order from lowest melting point to the highest- na2o he ch4 nh3 h2s?

The order from lowest to highest melting point is: CH4, NH3, H2S, Na2O, He.


Are NH3 and CH4 soluble in each other?

Ammonia (NH3) and methane (CH4) are not soluble in each other because they are both nonpolar molecules. Nonpolar molecules like these do not mix well with polar molecules like water, which is needed for molecules to dissolve in each other.

nitrogen aton in NH3 has one lone pair of electron

How do the bond angles in NF3 compare to those in NH3?

In NF3, the bond angles are larger than in NH3.


Are methane gas and ammonia the same?

No, methane gas (CH4) and ammonia (NH3) are not the same. Methane is a hydrocarbon gas composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms, while ammonia is a compound made of nitrogen and hydrogen atoms. They have different chemical compositions and properties.


Use Lewis structures and vsepr theory to determine which ch4 and ch3cl are polar and non-polar?

CH3Cl is polar, CH4 is not. You'll have to do your own Lewis structures, and I'm personally a little mystified as to exactly what VSEPR has to do with it (if you were comparing CH4 with NH3 instead, then you'd need VSEPR).


Why does CH4 and H20 have approximately the same angles but different shapes?

They do not have the same solid angles. Also, CH4 has five atoms while H2O has three.


What are three compounds that are gases at room temperature?

Three easy ones are carbon dioxide (CO2), ammonia (NH3) and methane (CH4).
