PhyPharm Liquids Quiz Flashcards
Define Liquid
A fluid that has the particles loose and can freely form a distinct surface at the boundaries of its bulk material
What are the Characteristics of Liquids?
- Liquid shape is determined by container it fills
- Can display immiscibility
- Surface of liquid behaves elastic membrane in which SURFACE TENSION appears, allowing the formation of DROPS and BUBBLES
- Liquids at their respective boiling point reaches to GASES and at their FREEZING POINT, change to SOLIDS
- The VOLUME of quantity of liquid is fixed by Temperature and PRESSURE
- Liquids are often treated as INCOMPRESSIBLE
What are the Property of Liquids
Viscosity - Resistance to Flow
-Increase Intermolecular Force; Increase Viscosity
-Increase Temperature; Decrease Intermolecular Force; Decrease Viscosity
Is the process by which substances in their gaseous substance in their gaseous state are converted to the liquid state?
Liquefication gases
What does Liquefication of gases mean?
When PRESSURE on gas is increased , its molecules gets close together, and its TEMPERATURE is reduced, which removes enough ENERGY to make it change from the gaseous to the liquid state
What are the 2 important properties of gases necessary in developing methods for their liquefication?
- Critical temperature
- Critical Pressure
Is the temperature at which no amount of pressure, will cause the gas to liquefy?
Critical temperature
The minimum pressure required to liquefy the gas at the critical temperature?
Critical pressure
The liquid can no longer exist, because the vapor of the substance cannot be liquified?
Critical Temperature
What is the critical temperature for carbon dioxide?
304K (87.8 degrees Fahrenheit [31 degrees Celsius]
What is the critical pressure for Carbon dioxide?
72.9 atmospheres

112.5 atm
What are the critical temperature & pressure of helium?
5.4 K (-449.9°F [-267.7°C])
2.25 atm
What is the critical temperature and critical pressure of water?
