Chapter 11 Intermolecular Forces and the Liquid State Flashcards
Fusion (Melting)
solid to liquid; endothermic
Vaporization
liquid to gas; endothermic
Sublimation
solid to gas; endothermic
Freezing
liquid to solid; exothermic
Condensation
gas to liquid; exothermic
Deposition
gas to solid; exothermic
Enthalpy of Vaporization
energy required to convert 1 mole or 1 gram of a liquid to vapor at a given temperature
When the strength of the IMFs in a series of liquids increase, will the enthalpy of vaporization increase or decrease?
increase because it will require more energy to break the bonds
Dynamic Equilibrium
state in which the rates of vaporization and condensation are equal
What happens to temperature when vapor pressure increases?
as temperature increases, vapor pressure increases too
When the strength of the IMFs in a series of liquids increase, will the vapor pressure increase or decrease?
decrease because molecules with weaker IMFs are held less tightly to one another in the liquid phase so more of them can escape into the vapor phase
Surface Force
measure of force required to break the surface of the liquid
Do liquids with strong IMFs have high or low surface tension?
high surface tension
Viscosity
measure of a liquid’s resistance to flow
What does viscosity depend on?
IMF strength and length of the molecules in the liquid
