    for 3a iii ) As you go down group 7, the number of electrons in the molecules increase which means the Van der Waal's forces between the diatomic molecules become stronger therefore the halogens become less reactive as you go down the group. (Because I-I bond is longer, it is weaker but that...

    Here, I wrote it just how I thought it.. . https://www.dropbox.com/s/oqs22luv6wut9nt/IMAG0285.jpg Edit: J is wrong, it should be CH3CH(OH)COOH [you know this cause the empirical formula is CH2O ]

    you're gonna like it ... but its reallllllly long and I should study it now.. cause I have my m2 exam the day before it and I really need to do well on that.

    lol its okay .. translation websites are not intelligent so I can forgive you. And I studied french in from gr6-8 then gave the french IGCSE .. =]

    LOL! votre accueil is out of context... what you just said basically means your (as in something that belongs to me) and welcome! (as in welcome to this place) ... what you're supposed to say is "de rien"

    tell me something...when we are finding the oxidation numbers of elements in compounds in an equation... do we take the number of molecules in account? Like 2NH3 .. would I take the 2 in account?

    no dont get me wrong, I love chem... but studying when you feel like you're re reading a story is boring.. and I hate studying by myself

    Because the oxidation number of Cl in PCl3 is -3 and since PCl3 is neutral over all... P has to have the oxidation no. +3 to cancel out the -3 and the over all oxidation state of PCl3 can be zero. (-3+3=0) The oxidation no. of Cl2 in SCl2 is -2 so for the entire charge to be zero S will have...

    studying for chemistry is the most boring out of all my subjects =_=

    yeh you're right ... so induced dipole- permanent dipole (Debyce force), permanent dipole- permanent dipole (keesom force) and instantaneous dipole-induced dipole (london force) are all Van der Waal's This is what happens when you read your notes after a year and misinterpret them xD

    dude Im gonna kill you.. I just posted that a sec ago!

    so you're calling a hydrogen bond a van der waal's force too? "all intermolecular forces are collectively known as Van der Waal's forces" and if you're righ, sorry for arguing ..guess I wasn't taught right.

    Umm... dude you're negating yourself. As far as I know Instantaneous dipole-Induced dipole (temporary dipoles) forces have London Forces and Van der Waal's forces under them. And then dipole-dipole forces are basically permanently dipole-permanently dipole forces... the one between two polar...

    yeh the requirements for a hydrogen bond are: 1. H atom attached to a highly electronegative atom 2. an unshared pair of electrons on the electronegative atom.

    there must have been an indication that the molecule had a similar shape to water.. .14.5 is the bond angle in H2O, 107 in ammonia and 109.5 is for a tetrahedral molecule (where there are for pairs of electrons).
