Phase Changes Flashcards
What are the 6 phase changes?
- Melting
- Vaporization
- Deposition
- Freezing
- Condensation
- Sublimation
What does a positive slope on a phase diagram indicate?
A negative one?
The solid is more dense than the liquid.
Vice versa
As pressure goes up, what happens?
Equilibrium favors the more dense phase (think ice skating)
What are the molecular forces from strongest to weakest?
Intramolecular forces
Hydrogen bonds
Dipole-dipole forces
London dispersion forces
As molecular mass increases, what happens to London dispersion forces?
They increase
What difference in molar mass is required for a nonpolar substance to have a higher boiling point than a polar substance? (Not precise)
Several hundred g/mol
What four properties of liquids can be attributed to intermolecular forces?
- Beading
- Surface tension
- Capillary action
- Viscosity
What are the two types of solids?
- Amorphous
2. Crystalline
What is the crystal lattice?
3D grid that a crystal solid aligns to
What is a unit cell?
The smallest repeating 3D pattern in a crystal lattice
