Two molecules used in the
Azodicarbonamide
Methyl cyanoracy late
Azodicarbonamide is used in forming polystyrene. When added to the molten plastic, it decomposes to nitrogen, carbon monoxide, and ammonia gases, which are captured as bubbles in the molten polymer. Methyl cyanoacrylate is the main ingredient in super glue. As the glue sets, methyl cyanoacrylate

- Dispersion forces are produced when an electronegative atom pulls on the electron of a hydrogen atom so much that the proton of the hydrogen can closely interact with the electronegative atom of another molecule electronegative atoms pull electrons toward one area of the molecule, creating regions of partial positive and partial negative charge that are attracted to regions of other molecules with the opposite charge electrons are transferred from one atom to another to produce anions and cations that are then held together in a rigid lattice electrons in molecular compounds are constantly moving and produce short-term regions of positive and negative charge that are attracted to regions of other molecules with the opposite chargearrow_forwardwhich of the following statement is not true? 1)Nitrogen s relative inertness is due to formation of strong and stable bond between 2 nitrogens atom. 2)the bond energy of N2 is relatively higher that makes it relatively inert. 3)the bond energy of an O-H bond is always the same in all compounds that contain an O-H bond 4)carbon-carbon single bond is the longest among all sorts of carbon-carbon bonds 5)a shorter bond in general ,is a stronger bond than a longer bondarrow_forwardDetermine the molecular structure of the following compound (C4H10O) using the data below Please show how you determined the structurearrow_forward
