Question

When sodium metal is dropped in liquid NH3 , it forms Na+ and gets ammoniated. Which of the following forces are responsible for the formation of ammoniated sodium ion and secondly only in ammonia molecules
1) Ion - induced dipole
2) Hydrogen bonding
3) Ion - dipole
4) Dipole - Induced dipole​

Answer 1

Answer:

ion dipole and hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

For the formation of ammmoniated sodium ion ion dipole forces operate because NH3 has dipole moment and in ammonia molecules there exist intermolecular hydrogen bonding among the molecules.
