Chapter 11 Notes Flashcards
What is matter?
anything that occupies spaces and has mass
What are the 4 phases of matter? What’s another name for them
Solids, Liquids, Gasses, and Plasma
Common Phase States
What are the molecular properties of solids?
- hard, rigid
- molecules touch each other
- vibrate in fixed positions
- do not move around each other
What are the molecular properties of liquids?
- in constant motion
- moves freely about each other(they slide past each other)
- more tightly packed than gasses
- compressible
What are the molecular properties of gasses?
- very spaced out from each other
- don’t often touch each other
- very random motion
- compressible
What is Fluidity?
the ability of something to flow
Name the Phase Changes
Solid -> Liquid: melting(fusion) Solid-> Gas: sublimation Liquid -> Solid: freezing Liquid-> Gas: evaporation(vaporization) Gas-> Solid: deposition Gas-> Liquid: condensation
What are Intermolecular Forces (IMFs)?
forces of attraction between molecules that hold them together in condensed states
What are the 4 types of IMFs?
Dispersion
Dipole-Dipole
Ion-Dipole
Hydrogen Bonds
What are Dispersion Forces?
- weak attractive force between 2 molecules due to a temporary shift in electron density
- it is the weakest type of IMF and occurs in all matter
What are Dipole-Dipole Forces?
- forces between 2 polar molecules; caused by the tendency of dipoles to line up with the positive end of 1 molecule near the negative end of another
- stronger force than Dispersion with permanent dipoles in the molecules
What are Ion-Dipole Forces?
- forces of attraction between a dipole and anion
- 2nd Strongest type of IMF
What are Hydrogen bonds?
- forces that exist between a hydrogen atom attracted to a more electronegative atom (F,O,N) inside a molecule
- STRONGEST type of IMFs
What are Factors that affect Dispersion Forces
- Molar Mass- with similar compounds; the greater the molar mass, the greater the depression force and the boiling point will be higher
- Molecular shape- with the same molecular formula, a linear structure has a higher boiling point than those that are branched or round in structure
What is surface tension?
- the tendency of liquids to minimize their surface area
- it is also the energy required to increase the surface area by a unit amount
What is water’s surface tension at room temperature?
72.8 mJ/m^2
How does surface tension relate to IMF?
surface tension decreases as IMFs decreases
What is Viscosity?
the resistance of a liquid to flow
ex: honey, molasses, motor oil
How is viscosity measured?
it’s measured in poise (P) or (cP)
1 poise= 1g/ cm*s
How is viscosity related to IMFs?
viscosity increases as IMFs increases and also depend on the molecular shape
How does viscosity relate to temperature?
As temp increase, viscosity decreases (in vice versa)
What is Capillary Action?
the ability of a liquid to flow against gravity up a narrow tube
How does Capillary Action work?
The liquid is more attracted to the glass of a tube than it is to itself. This is because the adhesive forces, the force between 2 different types of molecules, are greater than cohesive, force between like molecules, of the liquid in question
What is Vapor Pressure?
partial pressure of a vapor over its liquid at equilibrium
How does Vapor Pressure occur?
Vapor pressure is due to the evaporation of molecules from the surface of the liquid
What are Volatile and Nonvolatile liquids?
Volatile Liquids: liquids that are easily vaporized
Nonvolatile Liquids: liquids that aren’t easily vaporized
What is Dynamic Equilibrium?
a state of balance in which 2 opposing processes are occurring at equal rates
How are gasses volatile?
Gasses can be liquefied by decreasing temp and increasing pressure
What is Vaporization/Boiling?
going from a liquid phase to a gaseous phase
Boiling point
temp at which vapor pressure and atmospheric pressure are equal
Normal Boiling point
boiling point at 1 atm of pressure
Melting point
temp at which a crystalline solid melts
