IMF of Liquids (chapter 2) Flashcards
gas/ liquid; a substance that can flow
Fluid
The measure of the elastic force in the surface of a liquid.
Surface tension
The amount of energy required to stretch or increase in the surface of liquid by a unit area.
Surface tension
Tendency of a liquid to rise in narrow tubes or to be drawn to small openings.
Capillary action
The measure of a fluid’s resistance to flow.
Viscosity
A gaseous substance that exist naturally as a liquid/ solid at normal temperature.
Vapor
Change of phase from liquid to vapor (gaseous phase).
Vaporization
The equilibrium pressure of a vapor above its liquid; that is, the pressure exerted by the vapor above the surface of the liquid in a closed container.
Vapor pressure
The temperature at which a liquid boils
Boiling point
Normal boiling point in atm?
1 atm
The energy (kilojoules) required to vaporize 1 mole of a liquid at a given temperature.
Molar heat of vaporization (Hvap)
It is manifested as some sort of skin on the surface of a liquid or in a drop of liquid.
Surface tension
Molecules in liquid are pulled in?
All directions; downwards or sideways
IMF causes liquid surface to
tighten like an elastic film/ skin
in ST liquid; high IMF equals?
high surface tension
Capillary action is also known as?
“Capillarity”
Result of IM attraction between solid and liquid materials.
Capillary action
Capillary action is shown in?
Water rising in capillary tubes
CA 2 Types of Forces
Cohesion and Adhesion
IM attraction between like molecules
Cohesion
IM attraction between unlike molecules
Adhesion
Cohesive forces > Adhesive forces
Surface is convex; ex. mercury
Cohesive forces < Adhesive fores
Surface is concave; ex. water in glass
Cohesive forces = Adhesive forces
Surface is horizontal; ex. distilled water
High viscosity equals?
High time of liquid to flow
Viscosity unit
Units of centipose
Water’s viscosity
1 centipose/ 0.001 Pa/s at 20°C
Examples of lower viscosity
Carbon tetrachloride and benzene
Resistance to flow is 1000x stronger than water
Glycerol
