Classify the following solids in different categories based on the nature of intermolecular forces operating in them: Potassium sulphate, tin, benzene, urea, ammonia, water, zinc sulphide, graphite, rubidium, argon, silicon carbide.

Ans: Potassium sulphate \rightarrow ionic solid
Tin Metallic \rightarrow solid
Benzene \rightarrow Molecular (non-polar) solid
Urea \rightarrow Polar molecular solid
Ammonia \rightarrow Polar molecular solid
Water \rightarrow Hydrogen bonded molecular solid
Zinc sulphide \rightarrow lonic solid
Graphite \rightarrow Covalent or network solid
Rubidium \rightarrow Metallic solid
Argon \rightarrow Non-polar molecular solid
Silicon carbide \rightarrow Covalent or network solid

At a certain location in Africa, a compass points 12^{\circ} west of the geographic north. The north tip of the magnetic needle of a dip circle placed in the plane of magnetic meridian points above the horizontal. The horizontal component of the earth’s field is measured to be 0.16 \mathrm{G} . Specify the direction and magnitude of the earth’s field at the location.At a certain location in Africa, a compass points 12^{\circ} west of the geographic north.
