Intermolecular forces :

The forces of attraction present in between the molecules or atoms or compounds is termed as intermolecular forces.


The molecule HCl is composed of hydrogen and chlorine atom. There is high difference in electronegativities therefore, it is polar in nature. The H end of HCl is permanently slightly positive charge. The Cl end of HCl has a permanent slight negative charge. the "H" in one molecule is attracted to the "Cl" in a neighbor. The intermolecular force is weak compared to a covalent bond. But this dipole-dipole interaction is one of the stronger intermolecular attractions.

It also has hydrogen bonding and dispersion forces. 

Dispersion forces are the weakest forces which are present in between all molecules or atoms.
Hydrogen bonds are present in molecules having at least one H-A bond where A is the strong electronegative atom (mainly F, Cl and N).

Expressing 3/8 as a decimal fraction:

We can convert 3/8 into a decimal fraction by just dividing 3 by 8 or making 3 into 8 parts.

Then, it is 3/8 = 0.375 as a decimal fraction.

Other Method::

3/8 as a Decimal :

In this we should convert the denominator into 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000,... to make it simple.

Now to make 8 into 1000, we multiply numerator and denominator with 125

=> (3 x 125)/(8 x 125) = 375/1000 = 0.375.

A greenhouse gas (GHG) is any gas in the atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiation in the thermal infrared range.

The increase in average global temperatures that results from an enhanced greenhouse effect.

Effects of increased greenhouse gas emissions:

Increases in the different greenhouse gases have other effects apart from global warming including ocean acidification, smog pollution, ozone depletion as well as changes to plant growth and nutrition levels.
