Part a list the substances nacl, cl2, ch3cl, and ch3cooh in order of increasing strength of intermolecular attractions. list the substances , , , and in order of increasing strength of intermolecular attractions. cl2

Cl₂ < CH₃Cl < CH₃COOH < NaCl

Explanation:

Part A. List the substances NaCl, Cl₂, CH₃Cl, and CH₃COOH in order of increasing strength of intermolecular attractions.

NaCl. Na⁺ is bonded to Cl⁻ through a ionic bonding. In the crystalline reticle, unit formulas attract each other through ion-ion forces, which are the strongest type of forces.

Acetic acid (CH₃COOH) has H atoms bonded to more electronegative O atoms. This leads to the formation of hydrogen bondings, which constitute an especially strong case of dipole-dipole forces.

Chloromethane (CH₃Cl) is a polar molecule due to the asymmetrical distribution of charge density. The resulting intermolecular attractions are dipole-dipole forces.

Cl₂ is nonpolar and it has the weakest type of intermolecular attractions, dispersion forces.

The order of increasing strength is Cl₂ < CH₃Cl < CH₃COOH < NaCl

idk what the question is about

metals are good conductor of electricity. it has free electrons on their surface. according to electron pool theory, each atom present in a metal crystal losses all of its valence electron and as a result a pool of free is form. these pool of electrons are free to move and   conduct electricity easily   while making metal as good conductor.

the correct answer is a. the ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.

if it's not useful, feel free to report for mistake in answer.
