Ch. 1 - Intermolecular Forces and the Properties of Solid and Liquid Flashcards
Another term for London Dispersion Interaction/Forces.
Van der Waals Forces
The temperature and pressure at which the three phases (gas, liquid, and solid) of a substance coexist in thermodynamic equilibrium.
Triple Point
Attracted to and is soluble in water.
Hydrophilic
The force that pulls molecules with opposite charges together.
Electrostatic Force
The 3 types of system.
Open System
Closed System
Isolated System
The interaction between an ion and a dipole.
Ion Dipole Interaction
A solid that consists of positively and negatively charged ions held together by electrostatic forces.
Ionic Crystal
The temperature at which the vapor pressure equals the surrounding atmospheric pressure.
Boiling Point
The energy required to transform a given quantity of a substance from a liquid into a gas at a given pressure.
Molar Heat of Vaporization
The regular repeating structure of a crystalline solid.
Crystal Lattice
Corresponds to a specific pressure and temperature above which the fluid has both properties of liquid and vapor.
Critical Point
The physical forces governing the interaction BETWEEN molecules.
Intermolecular Forces
A solid composed of molecules held together by Van der Waals Forces.
Molecular Crystal
A special kind of intermolecular force wherein a hydrogen atom bonds to either an oxygen, fluorine, or nitrogen atom.
Hydrogen Bond
What type of intermolecular force is very evident when dissolving sodium chloride in water?
Ion Dipole Interaction
The higher the temperature, the _______ the viscosity (lower/higher).
Lower (Inversely Proportional)
The elastic tendency of a fluid surface which makes it acquire the least surface area possible. It is also the amount of energy required to stretch the surface of the liquid by a unit area.
Surface Tension
A molecule with 2 poles.
Dipole
The pressure exerted by a vapor in thermodynamic equilibrium with its condensed phases (solids and liquids) at a given temperature in a closed system.
Vapor Pressure
High vapor pressure at a normal temperature is referred to as ________.
Volatile
What is capillarity?
The rise or depression of a liquid in a small passage.
Hydrogen bond is a special kind of what intermolecular force?
Dipole Dipole Interaction
Characteristics of Liquids
- fluid and can flow
- liquid particles have more energy than solid particles
- has definite volume but indefinite shape
- low (no) compressibility
- the type of intermolecular force depends on the chemical make-up of the liquid itself
- IMF is affected by the kinetic energy of the substance
- the higher the kinetic energy the weaker the
intermolecular forces
Any point beyond the critical point of a substance, in which liquification is impossible.
Supercritical Fluid
