Intermolecular Forces, Liquids, and Solids Chapter 11 BLB 11th
Questions? • Why does water have such anomalous properties? • Why do you add salt to the water before cooking pasta? • How can ice melt below 0°C? • How does antifreeze work? Answer: Solutions have different properties than pure solvents.
11.2 Intermolecular Forces • The attractive forces between molecules or between ions and molecules • Most properties of liquids and solids (and solutions) are due to the strength of the intermolecular forces present. • Boiling point • Melting (freezing) point • ΔHvap°
Types of Intermolecular Forces: In order from strongest to weakest: • Ion-dipole – attraction of an ion and the partial charges of a polar molecule (hydration of ionic salts) • Dipole-dipole – attraction between two polar molecules (water, HF, alcohols) • London Dispersion (induced dipole) – instantaneous attraction between two nonpolar molecules due the polarizability of the electron cloud.
Hydrogen “bonding” • Special type of dipole-dipole interaction • Occurs between a H atom attached to an electronegative atom (N, O, F) on one molecule and a lone pair on an electronegative element on another molecule. (whew!) • Common in water(!) and alcohols (C–OH) • Very strong collectively
Hydrogen-bonding examples Between same molecule Between different molecules
Why is water so weird? • High specific heat (only NH3 higher) • High ΔHfus° (only NH3 higher) • Highest ΔHvap° • Highest surface tension • Higher boiling point than expected • Ice floats on water. Answer: Strong network of hydrogen bonding
11.3 Some Properties of Liquids • Viscosity – resistance to flow • Surface tension – a measure of the inward forces that must be overcome in order to expand the surface area of a liquid • Cohesive – between molecules • Adhesive – attraction between substance and a surface (glass ⇒ water) • Capillary action
11.5 Vapor Pressure • In an open container: liquid → gas (evaporation) • In a closed container: liquid ⇌ gas (dynamic equilibrium) • Vapor pressure – pressure exerted by the vapor in equilibrium with the liquid or solid in a closed container at a given temperature
Vapor Pressure, cont. • As T ↑, vapor pressure ↑. • When vapor pressure = atmospheric pressure, boiling occurs. • When pressure = 1 atm: normal boiling point • Volatile substances have a higher vapor pressure.
11.6 Phase Diagrams • Show graphically the relationship between the different phases of a substance. • Solid, liquid, gas regions • Normal melting and boiling points • Triple point • Critical point • Slope of solid-liquid line
