When chemists convert ethene open paren cap c sub 2 cap h sub 2 close paren to ethanol open paren CH sub 3 CH sub 2 OH close paren , they have a mixture of the two gaseous substances. Why do chemists then lower the temperature of the mixture?

A
to collect liquid ethene and leave ethanol as a gas because ethene has stronger dipole-dipole forces
B
to collect liquid ethene and leave ethanol as a gas because ethanol has stronger London dispersion forces
C
to collect liquid ethanol and leave ethene as a gas because ethene has stronger London dispersion forces
D
to collect liquid ethanol and leave ethene as a gas because ethanol has hydrogen bonds

Which statement best compares the energy involved in melting with the energy involved in boiling for a given liquid?

A
Energy is added to the particles in each change, but boiling requires more energy than melting because the attractions must be completely overcome.
B
Energy is removed from the particles in each change, but more energy is removed in boiling than in melting because the attractions are weaker.
C
Energy is added to the particles in each change, but melting requires more energy than boiling because the attractions must be completely overcome.
D
Energy is removed from the particles in each change, but more energy is removed in melting than in boiling because the attractions are weaker.

A sample of ammonia reacts with oxygen as shown. 4 NH sub 3 g plus 5 cap o sub 2 g rightarrow 4 NO g plus 6 cap h sub 2 cap o g What is the limiting reactant if 4 point 0 g of NH sub 3 react with 8 point 0 g of oxygen?

A
cap o sub 2 because it produces two times less NO than NH sub 3 .
B
NH sub 3 because it produces only 0 point 2 0 mol of NO .
C
NH sub 3 because it produces three times more NO than cap o sub 2 .
D
cap o sub 2 because it produces only 0 point 2 0 mol of NO .
