Ch 11 - IMFs Flashcards
Intermolecular Force
attractive forces between all molecules and atoms.
High thermal energy
tend to be gasses
low thermal energy
tend to be solids or liquids
What has the strongest IMFs?
Solids, then liquids, then gasses
Crystalline Solid
the atoms or molecules are arranged in a well-ordered three-dimensional array
Amorphous Solid
the atoms or molecules have no long range order
How do you change the state of matter?
Increase temperature and/or pressure.
Higher pressure =
more dense state
Higher temperature =
less dense state
4 types of IMFs
dispersion force, dipole-dipole force, hydrogen bond, and ion-dipole force
Dispersion Force
london dispersion force.
all molecules and atoms have these.
fleeting charges create an unbalance of electrons around the atoms/molecules creating temporary dipoles.
What can dispersion forces do?
the temporary +/- in one can trigger a chain reaction in others creating strength temporarily.
Major factors affecting dispersion forces?
the larger the electron cloud the greater the dispersion forces can be.
All other things being equal then larger molar mass = larger dispersion force.
Shape also plays an important factor: more surface area = more dispersion forces.
Greater dispersion force =
higher boiling point.
more energy is required to break the bonds.
Why does shape affect LDFs?
long chains have greater LDFs than clumped patterns because more surface area = chance to tangle and increase attraction.
all other factors = then longer chain = more LDFs
C6H14>C5H12
Dipole-dipole Force
exist in all molecules that are polar.
Has permanent dipole - a molecule with an electron rich and electron poor regions
Permanent Dipole
a molecule with an electron rich and electron poor regions
Dipole-Dipole Forces still have _____.
Dispersion forces
Dipole-Dipole Forces have higher ______
melting and boiling points than molecules with similar masses because there are more forces to overcome.
A greater dipole moment typically_____.
has a higher boiling point when compared to non dipole-dipole force molecules of similar molar mass.
Miscibility
the ability to mix without separating into two states of liquids.
polar with polar.
nonpolar with nonpolar.
Hydrogen Bonding
incredibly strong type of Dipole-Dipole Force caused by very large electronegativity difference AND close proximity to H since it only has 1 electron.
H with FON
Hydrogen bonding is the _____.
strongest of LDFs, Dipole-Dipole, and H Bonds because it has all 3 types.
Unique.
Ion-dipole Force
an ionic compound mixed with a polar compound.
Especially important with aqueous solutions.
Very strong compared to other IMFs.
What is the most important manifestation of IMFs?
the very existence of liquids and solids.
Surface Tension
the energy required to increase the surface area by a unit amount.
Molecules at the surface have _____.
less molecules to interact with and are inherently less table(higher potential energy)
liquids tends to minimize surface area because
more surface area = higher potential energy and subsequently more work must be done to maintain.
Creates a kind of skin on the surface that resist penetration.
Surface tension decreases as _____.
IMFs decrease.
What shape reduces surface area the most?
A sphere.
A sphere has_____
the smallest surface area to volume ratio(minimizes potential energy)
Viscosity
the resistance of a liquid to flow.
What is viscosity measured in?
poise(P)
1g/cm*s
Liquid water has a viscosity of
1 centipoise(cP)
Major factors affecting viscosity.
IMFs, Shape, and temperature.
How do IMFs affect viscosity?
more surface area for IMFs to interact tends to have higher viscosity.
Long chains can tangle and IMFs interact more.
How does molar mall affect viscosity?
generally higher molar mass = higher viscosity as more IMFs are able to interact.
How does temperature affect viscosity?
Higher temperature breaks IMFs and LOWERS viscosity.
Capillary Action
the ability of a liquid to flow against gravity up a narrow tube.
blood sample, trees
Cohesive Force
the attraction between molecules of a liquid
adhesive force
the attraction between molecules and the surface of a tube
Adhesive force>cohesive force
then liquid will be drawn up the tube
Cohesive force shape in tube
Convex.
pulling away from tube and bubbling up in middle.
Adhesive force shape in tube
concave.
being drawn up the side of the tube looking depressed in center of liquid.
the higher the temperature the greater the average_____
energy of the collection of molecules which can be vaporized more easily.
Vaporization
the transition from liquid to gas.
Endothermic
Condensation
the transition from gas to liquid.
Exothermic
Condensation and vaporization both______
occur simultaneously but under normal conditions more evaporation then condensation occurs on the substance,
What increases the evaporation rate?
higher temperature.
more surface area.
Decreased IMFs
Will not increase temperature until all liquid is turned to gas.
Volatile
liquids that evaporate easily.
Acetone
Nonvolatile
liquids that do not evaporate easily.
Motor oil
if no new energy is added to a system then the temperature of the liquid will_______.
decrease as evaporation occurs.
Sweat cools the body.
Endothermic process.(takes heat away from body)
Vaporization is a _____ process.
endothermic.
Absorbs energy to turn to a gas.
Condensation is a _____ process.
Exothermic
energy must be released from the gas to turn it to a liquid.
Steam burns condense on skin releasing a significant amount of heat which hurts.
