Viscosity/Boiling Point/Solubility/Flashpoint Trends Flashcards
State what homologous series have the highest boiling point
Carboxylic acid/alcohols/amines/amides
State the IMF forces of carboxylic acids
Hydrogen bonding and weak dispersion forces
State the IMF forces of alcohols
Hydrogen bonding and weak dispersion forces
State the IMF forces of amines
Hydrogen bonding and weak dispersion forces
State the IMF forces of amides
Hydrogen bonding and weak dispersion forces
State the trends in boiling point of organic compounds within a homologous series
Increase in chain length, increases boiling point
Increase in MM, increases boiling point
Straight chain > Branched chain (due to increased packing)
State what homologous series have the second highest boiling point
Haloalkanes/aldehydes/ketones/esters
State the IMF forces of haloalkanes
Dipole-dipole attractions and weak dispersion forces
State the IMF forces of aldehydes
Dipole-dipole attractions and weak dispersion forces
State the IMF forces of ketones
Dipole-dipole attractions and weak dispersion forces
State the IMF forces of esters
Dipole-dipole attractions and weak dispersion forces
State what homologous series have the third highest boiling point
Alkanes
State the IMF forces of alkanes
Weak dispersion forces
State what homologous series have the fourth highest boiling point
Alkenes/alkynes
State the trends in boiling point within the alcohol homologous series
primary > secondary > tertiary
due to decreased op. for hydrogen bonding with other molecules
State the overall trend in viscosity
Viscosity increase as forces of attraction between molecules increase (as chain length increases, so too does strength of dispersion forces and thus, viscosity)
State the overall trend in flashpoint
Flashpoint increases as carbon chain length increases
State the overall trend in solubility of aldehydes/ketones/esters/alcohols/amides/amines in non-polar organic solvents
Solubility increases as chain length increases
State the overall trend in solubility of alkenes/alkanes/alkynes in non-polar solvents
Soluble in non-polar solvents
State the overall trend in solubility of aldehydes/ketones/esters/alcohols/amides/amines in polar solvents
Solubility decreases as chain length increases
State the overall trend in solubility of alkenes/alkanes/alkynes in polar solvents
Insoluble in polar solvents
