Accepted Answer

Hydrogen bonding

Question 3

Which of the following compounds would NOT be expected to dissolve in water?

Accepted Answer

Methane ($$\mathrm{CH_4$})$$

Question 4

Which statement best explains why pentane ($$\mathrm{C_5H_{12}}) $$forms a homogeneous mixture with bromine ($$\mathrm{Br_2$}$$)?

Accepted Answer

Both are nonpolar and interact via London dispersion forces.

Question 5

Which of the following mixtures is most likely to be heterogeneous?

Accepted Answer

Hexane ($$\mathrm{C_6H_{14}}) $$and water

Question 6

Which of the following best describes the intermolecular forces present in a solution of acetone ($$\mathrm{CH_3COCH_3}) $$and water?

Accepted Answer

Hydrogen bonding and dipole-dipole interactions

Question 7

A student mixes $$\mathrm{$$CCl_4$$} ($$carbon tetrachloride) and $$\mathrm{H_2O} ($$water). What is the expected result?

Accepted Answer

A heterogeneous mixture forms because $$\mathrm{$$CCl_4$$} is $$nonpolar and water is polar.

Question 8

Which of the following statements about hydrogen bonding is TRUE?

Accepted Answer

Hydrogen bonding requires hydrogen to be bonded to highly electronegative atoms like N, O, or F.

Accepted Answer

Both are nonpolar and interact via London dispersion forces.

Question 11

Which of the following pairs will NOT form a solution due to differences in polarity?

Accepted Answer

Hydrogen fluoride ($$\mathrm{HF}) $$and hexane ($$\mathrm{C_6H_{14}})$$

Question 12

Which of the following is a correct statement about London dispersion forces?

Accepted Answer

They are present in all molecules, but are the only force in nonpolar molecules.

Question 13

Which of the following mixtures would be expected to form a solution due to hydrogen bonding?

Accepted Answer

Methanol ($$\mathrm{CH_3OH}) $$and water

Question 14

Which of the following best describes the solubility of fluoroethane ($$\mathrm{CH_3CH_2F}) in $$water?
