Calculate the relative molecular mass of CaCO3. (relative atomic mass (Ar): C= 12, Ca= 40, O= 16)

Number of atoms
Ca x1 => 40x 1= 40
C x 1 => 12x1 = 12
O x 3= 16 x 3= 48CaCO3
RMM= 40 + 12 + 48= 100

The intermolecular interactions between halogen molecules are Van der Waals' forces. Explain how these Van der Waal's forces arise between halogen molecules.

Electrons are mobile or move in halogen molecules. Therefore, there can be an uneven distribution of electrons or electron density in halogen molecules (1 mark). This creates a temporary or instantaneous ...

Why is a nucleophilic substitution reaction between ammonia and benzene unlikely?

A nucleophilic substitution reaction is when a nucleophile (an electron pair donor) replaces an atom or part of a molecule. In this scenario ammonia (NH3) is the nucleophile as it contains a lo...
