Chapter 12 Flashcards
(19 cards)
Vaporization (evaporation, boiling)
Liquid-gas
Plasma
A partially ionized gas
Does not obey PV=NRT
Melting, fusion
Solid-liquid
Sublimation
Solid-gas
Deposition, frost
Gas-solid
Latent heat
Phase transitions involve breaking bonds-cost energy
Energy is released during reverse transition
Vapor pressure
The maximum amount of vapor at a given temp.
Bond
Forms a stable connection at room temp.
Any force greater than 10kJ is considered a bond
Force
A non binding interation
Covalent
Important inside molecules, but doesn’t hold molecules to each other in solids or liquids
Ionic
Strong, high melting, no actual molecules
Metallic
Strong bonds, but not very directional.
High boiling points but melting points vary
Dipole-dipole interaction
Result when two polar molecules approach each other in space. The partially negative is attracted to partially positive
London (dispersion) forces
A type of force acting between atoms and molecules.
Strength increases with number of valence electrons and surface area of molecules
Hydrogen bonding
When bonded to a small, electronegative atom (N,O,F) the nucleus is relatively exposed in the opposite side. Can bond to a another small electronegative atom
POL Cohesion
The liquid sticks to itself
POL Adhesion
The liquid sticks to other substances
POL Surface tension
Cohesion minimizes the surface area of a drop
POL Capillary action
In a small tube, the adhesive force can pull water a substantial height up the tube
