Q
Electrons have no \_\_\_\_\_\_ position in atoms, compounds and molecules (see image below) but have probabilities of being found in certain spaces (orbitals).
If these are on alternate carbon
atoms, the bonding electrons move
within the molecule, stabilizing the
structure by a phenomenon called
resonance.

Q

The reason that the boiling points increase as you go down the group is that the number of electrons increases, and so also does the radius of the atom. The more electrons you have, and the more distance over which they can move, the bigger the possible temporary dipoles and therefore the bigger the dispersion forces.

23
Q

Noncovalent bonds form between the covalently linked subunits of a macromolecule such as a polypeptide or RNA chain causing the chain to fold into a
unique shape. These noncovalent bonds include hydrogen bonds, ionic interactions, van der Waals attractions, and hydrophobic interactions. Because these interactions are weak, they can be broken with relative ease; thus, most macromolecules can be unfolded by heating, which increases thermal motion
