1) a. water molecule breaks up into hydrogen and oxygen on passing electricity. does this involve breaking intermolecular or intramolecular forces of attraction. explain b. on boiling water changes to water vapor. does this involve breaking intermolecular or intramolecular forces of attraction. explain methanol evaporates faster than water. contrast the intermolecular forces and the vapor pressures of methanol and water?

the term hydride is commonly named after binary compounds that hydrogen forms with other elements of the periodic table. hydride compounds in general form with almost any element, except a few noble gases. the trends and properties vary according to the type of intermolecular force that bonds the elements together, the temperature, its molecular masses, and other components. hydrides are classified into three major groups, depending on what elements the hydrogen bonds to. the three major groups are covalent, ionic, and metallic hydrides. formally, hydride is known as the negative ion of a hydrogen, h-, also called a hydride ion. because of this negative charge, hydrides have reducing, or basic properties. its special characteristics will be further discussed.
