Ch. 12: Liquids, Solids, and Intermolecular Forces Dr. Namphol Sinkaset Chem 152: Introduction to General Chemistry
I. Chapter Outline • Introduction • Liquids and Solids • Surface Tension and Viscosity • Types of Intermolecular Forces
I. Electrostatic Forces • Every molecule in a sample of matter experiences two types of electrostatic forces. • Intramolecular forces: the forces that exist within the molecule (bonding). These forces determine chemical reactivity. • Intermolecular forces: attractive forces that exist between molecules. These forces determine physical properties.
I. Intermolecular Forces • IM forces originate from interactions between charges, partial charges, and temporary charges on molecules. • IM forces are relatively weak because of smaller charges and the distance between molecules.
I. Solid, Liquid, or Gas? • Whether a substance exists as a solid, liquid, or gas depends on the relationship between the intermolecular forces and the kinetic energy of the molecules. • It’s a battle – which dominates? The KE or the IM attractions? • Recall that the average KE of a sample is related to its temperature, called the thermal energy.
I. KE vs. IM Forces • Gas: the kinetic energy of the molecules is much greater than the intermolecular attractions. • Liquid: the kinetic energy of the molecules is moderately greater than the intermolecular attractions. • Solid: the kinetic energy of the molecules is less than the intermolecular attractions.
II. Gases, Liquids, and Solids • Major difference between gases and condensed phases is the distance between particles. • Major difference between liquid and solid is the freedom of motion.
II. Properties of Liquids • High densities relative to gases. • Indefinite shape; liquids take the shape of their container. • Definite volume; liquids cannot be compressed easily.
II. Properties of Solids • High densities compared to gases. • Definite shape; solids do not take shape of their container. • Definite volume; solids are not easily compressed. • May be crystalline (ordered) or amorphous (unordered).
III. Effects of Intermolecular Forces • Without IM forces, only the gas phase would exist! • Before looking at different types of IM forces, we look at two of their macroscopic effects. • Surface tension • Viscosity
III. Surface Tension • More dense objects float??
III. Attractions Pull Surface In • Molecules on the surface are attracted to molecules in the bulk. • This attraction pulls the surface molecules inward, minimizing surface area. • The result is a “skin” which resists penetration.
III. Viscosity • Viscosity is the resistance of a liquid to flow. • Viscosity is the result of intermolecular attractions.
IV. Types of IM Forces • There are different kinds of IM forces, each with a different level of strength. • Dispersion force • Dipole-dipole force • *Hydrogen “bonding”
IV. Dispersion Force • Dispersion force (London force) is present in all molecules and atoms and results from changes in e- locations.
IV. Instantaneous Dipoles • Charge separation in one creates charge separation in the neighbors.
IV. Dispersion Force Strength • The ease with which e-’s can move in response to an external charge is known as polarizability. • Large atoms with large electron clouds tend to have stronger dispersion forces. • Large molecules tend to have stronger dispersion forces.
IV. Dipole-Dipole Force • Occurs in polar molecules which have permanent dipoles, so attraction between molecules is always present.
IV. Effect of Dipole-Dipole Force • Polar molecules have dispersion forces and dipole-dipole forces. • Effects can be seen in boiling and melting points.
IV. “Like Dissolves Like” • Polar liquids are miscible with other polar liquids, but not with nonpolar liquids. • Miscible: mix without separating into two phases.
IV. Hydrogen “Bonding” • This IM force is a misnomer since it’s not an actual bond. • Occurs between molecules in which H is bonded to a highly electronegative element (N, O, F), leading to high partial positive and partial negative charges. • It’s a “super” dipole-dipole force.
IV. Effect of H “Bonding” • Hydrogen “bonding” is a very strong intermolecular force. • Molecules with H “bonding” have much higher than expected melting and boiling points.
IV. Sample Problem • Determine the kind(s) of intermolecular forces present in the following substances. • HBr • I2 • CO • NF3 • SiCl4
