Carbon monoxide (CO) and cyanide ion (CN") are toxic to biological systems because they bind much more strongly to the iron center (Fe2+) center of the hemoglobin protein which is responsible for oxygen transport throughout the body. Explain the phenomenon using one or more of the following inter- and/or intramolecular forces: hydrogen bonding, ion-dipole, dipole-dipole, ion-induced dipole, ion-ion (ionic), dispersion forces, dipole- induced dipole.

Why does NaI have a higher melting point than I₂? Explain in terms of intermolecular forces. Select the single best answer. Because NaI is a solid, and I, is a liquid. O Because NaI can form hydrogen bonds, and I cannot. O Because NaI is soluble in water, and I2₂ is not. Because NaI is an ionic compound, and the ion-ion attractions are much stronger than the dispersion forces between the I molecules. O
