Liquids and Solids Flashcards
dynamic equilibrium
exist in closed space between liquids and solids; the rate of evaporation = the rate of condensation
vapor pressure
the pressure exerted by gaseous water molecules in a liquid, dependent on temperature only
boiling point
when the vapor pressure = the surface pressure
normal boiling point
boiling point at 1 atm of pressure
melting point
when the energy is increased enough for the bonds to be overcome, proportional to the strengths of bonds
ionic solids
1.high melting points 2.decompose instead of melt
hydroxides
metal oxide and water: 2NaOH(s) > Na2O(s) + H2O(l)
carbonates
metal oxide and carbon dioxide: CaCO3(s) > CaO(s) + CO2(g)
chlorates
chloride salt and oxygen: 2KClO3(s) > 2KCl(s) + 3O2(g)
molecular solids
1.high molecular masses 2.low melting points 3.sublimation
density of solid water
0.99987 g/mL
density of liquid water
1.000 g/mL
covalent network solids
1.strong bonds 2.hard melting points 3. nonmetals 4.ex: graphite, diamond, quartz, silicon
amourphous solids
1.lack crystalline structure 2.no distinct melting point 3.ex: glass, wax, plastic
simple cubic
carbon, silicon
body-centered cubic
all alkali metals, Cr, V, Fe, W, Ba
face-centered cubic
Al, Ca, Sr, Ni, Cu, P
specific heat (Cp)
energy required to raise the temperature of any substance by one degree Celsius
CpH2O(s)
0.500 cal/gC
CpH2O(l)
1.00 cal/gC
CpH2O(g)
0.500 cal/gC
heat of fusion(_Hfus)
energy required to melt 1.0 g of any substance
_Hfus(H2O)
80.0 cal/g
heat of vaporation (_Hvap)
amount of energy required to vaporize 1.0 g of any substance
_Hvap(H2O)
- cal/g
triple point
when liquid, solid, and gas exist in the same conditions
