Question:

The polarizability of Ne is 1.1 x 10-37 m . C2/N.

(a) At what separation would the dipole-dipole energy between a molecule of H2O and an atom of Ne in the atmosphere be sufficient to withstand collision with an N2 molecule moving with the average kinetic energy for T = 300 K? 

(b) At what separation does this energy occur for a typically
bonded molecule? 

(c) On the basis of these results, do you expect H2O - Ne bonds to be very likely? Explain your answer.
