2. (a) Krypton (noble gas) and Rubidium (Group I metal) Kr has a simple molecular structure and Rb has a giant metallic structure. Larger amount of energy is needed to overcome the stronger electrostatic attraction between Rb+ and its mobile electrons than the weaker van der Waals' forces between Kr atoms . Hence, boiling point of Rb is higher than that of Kr.

b) AlF3 and PF3 AlF3 has a giant ionic structure and PF3 has a simple molecular/ covalent structure. Larger amount of energy is needed to overcome the stronger electrostatic attraction between Al3+ and F( ions in AlF3 than the weaker intermolecular forces (or van der Waals' forces/ permanent dipole –permanent dipole attraction) between PF3

    A crucial way to forge relationships during challenging economic times is by uniting the group with a single mission of operating as resourcefully as possible. Managers should be honest with the team, and as factual as possible to the team. Bonding relationships during a struggling economy can be difficult. Staff should be welcomed to offer suggestions to ease the cost burden. It would be critical to listen to suggestions with an open mind and implement as many worthy ideas as possible to further encourage open communication. Often employees volunteer to cut hours, share work (flex jobs) or identify areas in which the company is wasting money. There should be brainstorming sessions to determine if money is being wasted, and if there are areas that can be run more efficiently. Ideas to increase revenue through higher patient volume should also be explored. As a last resort staff should also be made aware that they may need to make some sacrifices in order to keep the department running, such as working less hours or even a temporary pay cut. If the team is able to join together and come thru a difficult time they will be more bonded and work more efficiently than ever before. Emotional bonds motivate employees to put forth effort, communicate honestly, and openly, and enable them to handle conflict in a positive manner (Spector, 2010).…

    Bonds is something that retains and holds on together with one another. There are three major chemical bonds and they are, Ionic, Covalent, and Hydrogen bonds. An example of a covalent bond would be SCl^2 which is Sulfur dichloride. SCl^2 is a covalent bond because since they are close to each other in valence electrons, they have almost full outer shells so they share electrons with one another. A good example is table salt NaCl, because they are on opposite sides of the periodic table therefore that means that they are different and one has less valence electrons than the other. Na has 1 valence electron in its outer most shell and Cl has seven, it would need just one more to fill its outer most shell therefore it will create an ionic bond and the one with the most will take away what it needs from the one with the least.…

    The hypothesis If a chemical reaction occurs, then there will be indicators of a chemical change, was supported throughout this experiment. Throughout this experiment there were several reactions that took place, and an indicator of such chemical reactions could be seen throughout each one. The first piece of identifiable evidence was present in the first step, which was when copper (II) nitrate and sodium hydroxide were combined. When stirred, a blue precipitate formed at the bottom of the test tube, the color of the solution changed from sky blue to teal blue, a slight color change but still noticeable, and heat was released causing the test tube to warm up slightly. In this one step there were three indicators of a chemical reaction supporting…
