Based on what you have learned about intermolecular forces, would you say that matter is fundamentally attracted or repulsed by other matter?

The attractive forces between the neighboring particles of a substance are known as intermolecular forces. The state of a substance relies upon the strength of the intermolecular forces among the molecules in a substance.  

There are three kinds of intermolecular forces, that is, the dipole-dipole forces, ion-dipole forces, and the London dispersion forces. On the basis of the kinds of intermolecular forces, it is concluded that the intermolecular forces primarily relies upon the nature of the molecule's bonding.  

Thus, on the basis of the nature of bonding between the associating atoms in a molecule one can know about the nature of intermolecular forces. On the basis of Newton's law of gravitation, all the physical bodies get fascinated towards each other, and it is known that each physical body comprises of matter. Thus, the matter is fundamentally attracted by other matter.

given:

mass of na = 115 g

excess cl2

to determine:

mass of nacl produced

explanation:

given reaction is-

2na(s) + cl2(g) → 2nacl(s)

since cl2 is in excess, na will be the limiting reagent

as per the reaction stoichiometry na: nacl = 1: 1

i.e. moles of na reacted = moles of nacl formed

now, # moles of na = mass of na/atomic mass

                                  = 115 g/23 g.mol-1 = 5 moles

therefore, moles of nacl = 5

molar mass of nacl = 58 g/mol

mass of nacl = 5 moles * 58 g.mol-1 = 290 g

ans: amount of nacl produced = 290 g
