Q

Properties of liquids

A

vapor pressure: tendency of a molecule to have enough KE to escape into the gas phase
Pvap increases with temperature
Pvap increases until rate of evaporation equals the rate of condensation

Q

Ion-dipole interactions

A

attractions between ions and polar molecules
magnitude of ion-dipole interactions depends on the charge and the size of the ion, and on the dipole moment and size of the polar molecule
-Cations generally interact more strongly with dipoles than anions (of the same magnitude charge) because they tend to be smaller

Q

Dipole-induced dipole

A

28
Q

Ion-induced dople

A

The charge of an ion induces a temporary partial charge on a neighboring nonpolar molecule or atom

29
Q

colligative properties

A

properties that depend on the number of solute particles in solution but do not depend on the nature of the solute particles.

30
Q

Raoult’s Law

A

relates the the vapor pressure of an solution is dependent on the mole fraction of a solute added to solution.

Psolution = ΧsolventP0solvent

where
Psolution is the vapor pressure of the solution
Χsolvent is mole fraction of the solvent
P0solvent is the vapor pressure of the pure solvent

If more than one solute is added to the solution, each individual solvent’s component is added to the total pressure.

31

disperson of particles from one substance through another substance

32
Q

aerosol

A

liquid or solid dispersed into a gas

33
Q

A

liquid dispersed in a solid

36
Q

Dispersion forces are greater in a _____ molecule?

A

The shape of the molecule affects the strength of dispersion forces: long, skinny
molecules (like n-pentane tend to have stronger dispersion forces than short, fat ones (like
neopentane).
