24
What us vapor pressure
The pressure exerted by the vapor when it is in dynamic equilibrium with its liquid
25
What is the relationship between IMF and vapor pressure
The weaker the IMF, the more molecules will be in vapor, so higher vapor pressure
26
Why does a weaker IMF mean higher vapor pressure
Because it's easier to break weak IMFs, so more molecules become a vapor, which means higher vapor pressure
27
When there is a high vapor pressure, is it easier or harder for the liquid to evaporate
Easier
28
Why/how is evaporation a cooling process
When the high energy (warmer) molecules are lost from the liquid (bc they evaporate) it lowers the average kinetic energy. If energy is not drawn back into the liquid, it's temp will decrease
29
Why do we sweat
To cool off - the warmer sweat drops leave our body, leaving behind cooler molecules, making us cooler
30
What is heat of vaporization
The amount of heat energy required to vaporize one mole of the liquid
31
What happens to the heat of vaporization as the polarity of a substance goes down/it has a weaker IMF
Heat of vaporization also goes down
32
Why does the heat of vaporization decrease when polarity/strength of IMF decreases
Bc it takes less energy to vaporize something if the forces are weaker
33
How are vapor pressure and temperature related
Directly proportional
34
When does the boiling point occur
When vapor pressure is the same as the external pressure
35
What is special about a boiling liquid
Molecules from anywhere in it, not just the surface, can vaporize
36
What is the boiling point
The temperature required the have the vapor pressure equal the external pressure
37
Why does water boil at a lower temperature on mt Everest
Because there is very low pressure there, so it requires less heat/energy to get the vapor pressure up to the external pressure
38
What is another word for melting
Fusion
39
What is heat of fusion
The amount of heat energy required to melt one mole of a solid
40
Why is the heat of vaporization so much greater than the heat if fusion
Because in order to vaporize something, you need to completely overcome the intermolecular forces and when you melt something, you only need to loosen the attractions
41
What is an equilibrium
Two states coexisting together
42
What is the specific heat capacity
The amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1g of a substance by 1° C
43
When water is at 0° C and 100° C what is the kinetic energy used for
To change the state of it, not raise them temperature
44
What states of water exist at 0° C
Solid and liquid
45
What states of water exist at 100° c
Liquid and gas
46
What is the boiling point of water
100°C
47
What is the freezing point of water
0°C
48
What is the melting point of water
0°C
49
The bonds between hydrogen and oxygen in a water molecule can be characterized as what
Intramolecular forces | Polar covalent bond
50
When a water molecule forms a hydrogen bond with another water molecule, which atoms are involved in the interaction
A hydrogen from one molecule and an oxygen from the other molecule
51
The freezing point of helium is approximately -270°C. The freezing point of Xenon is -112°C. What does this tell you about the IMFs in each molecule
The dispersion forces between the helium molecules are less than the dispersion forces between the xenon molecules
52
What process must exist in equilibrium with the evaporation process when a measurement of the vapor pressure is made
Condensation
53
``` Put these forces in order of decreasing strength: Covalent bonds Dispersion forces Ionic bonds Hydrogen binds Dipole dipole forces ```
``` Ionic bonds Covalent bonds H bonds Dipole dipole Dispersion ```
54
What types of elements make up molecular compounds
Non metals
55
What types of elements make up atomic compounds
Noble gases
56
What types of elements make up ionic compounds
A metal and nonmetal
57
In terms of kinetic energy, explain how a molecule in a liquid evaporate
Only molecules with a certain minimum amount of kinetic energy can evaporate. When a liquid is heated, the KE of the particles in creases, which gives the molecules the boost they need to overcome the attractive forces keeping them from evaporating
58
Why does the boiling point of a liquid vary w atmospheric pressure
Bc in order for a liquid to boil, external pressure must equal vapor pressure
59
When does boiling happen
When a liquid is heated to a temperature at which particles throughout the liquid have enough KE to evaporate
60
Why is there no change in intramolecular forces when a solid is melted
Melting is a physical change, so the composition doesn't change, which means the intramolecular forces must stay the same
61
Which is stronger: intermolecular forces or intramolecular forces
Intramolecular
62
Which type of solid (ionic, molecular, or atomic) is most likely to have the highest melting pint
Ionic because ionic bonds are the the strongest force, so it takes more KE to loosen them
63
Why does ammonia have a much higher boiling point than methane even though their molar masses are almost equal
Bc ammonia has H bonds so it takes more energy to overcome than dispersion forces which are present in methane
64
Why does an alcohol rub on a person w a high fever cool them down
Alcohol evaporates really easily, and evaporation is a cooling process. As the particles w more kinetic energy, the hotter ones, evaporate, they leave behind the cooler ones.
65
Why do an alcohol rub instead of a water rub
Alcohol evaporates easier than water bc there are no h-bonds holding the molecules together
66
What is the relationship between vapor pressure and temperature
Directly proportional
67
What is the relationship between kinetic energy and temperature
Directly proportional
68
If heat is added to ice and liquid water in a closed container, and after the addition of the heat there is still ice and liquid water remaining, what happens to the vapor pressure and why?
The vapor pressure of the water will remain constant because the temperature stays constant (bc there is still water & ice) which means vapor pressure must also be constant bc VP and T are directly proportional
69
Why is the density of ice less than the density of water
The same mass occupies a larger volume
70
A 100g sample of water is heated from 50°c to 100° c. At 100°c, although heat is still being applied, the temperature does not rise. Explain why
100° C is the boiling point of water and also the point at which water vapor condenses. These two states, liquid and vapor, are in an equilibrium - they are coexisting together. At this temperature, the kinetic energy in the form of heat that is being applied is being used for the water to change states rather than to change the temperature of it
71
Two molecules are the same size, but one has H-bonding and the other has dispersion forces. Which has the higher boiling point
The one that can h-bond
72
Two molecules have the same intermolecular forces, but one is much bigger. Which will have the higher boiling point
The bigger one
73
On what factors does the heat capacity of an object depend
Mass and chemical composition
