The change in isotopes over time due to the emission of radioactive particles is known as
a. radiometric dating.
b. radioactive decay.
c. absolute-age dating.
d. half-life.

Vander waals forces are inter molecular bonds that exist within molecules of the same substance. a water molecule is made up of oxygen and hydrogen atoms which share electrons between each other. the vander waals forces are forces that exist between multitude of different  molecules of water. dipole dipole forces is the type of vander waals force that exist in water. the oxygen atom which is more electronegative pulls the shared electron closer to itself thus generating a partial negative charge while the hydrogen acquire a partial positive charge. these two different charges causes attraction to occur in water molecules.

Given data,temperature, t = 230°c = 503 kconsider the chemical reaction,ch₃oh(l) + 1/2 o₂(g)  → ch₂o(g) + h₂o(l)calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction: δh⁰rxn =  σnδh⁰f(products) -  σmδh⁰f(reactants)substitute the values from the table: δh⁰rxn = { -115.9 + (-285.8)} - {0+(-238.7)}              = -163.0 kjcalculate the entropy change for the reaction.δs⁰rxn = (219 + 70) - (127.2 + 1/2 x 205.2) = 59.2 j/kconsider the expression for free energy: δg⁰rxn =  δh⁰rxn - t  δs⁰rxnsubstitute the values in the above equationδg⁰rxn = -163 x 10³ - (503 x 59.2)              = -192777.6 j              = -192.777 kj

This kind of reaction is called a synthesis otherwise known as combination reaction
