longer, less compact molecules make
higher LDF
higher the LDF
Higher the boiling point
more electrons (larger molecules) and higher polarizability
Stronger LDF
ionic bonds typically have
higher boiling points
vaporization is higher with
increased temp (more kinetic energy), increased surface area and decreased IMF
enthalpy of vaporization is higher if
IMFs are higher (takes more energy)
volatile
liquids that evaporate easy
The opposite process of vaporization is
condensation
condensation is a
exothermic process that happens at a slower rate of vap
dynamic equilibrium
rate of vap and condensation are equal so no gain/loss of liquid
vapor pressure depends only on
liquids IMF and temp (not volume)
high vapor pressure if
IMFs are weaker (liquid is more volatile)
conditions of capillary action
cohesive forces are weaker than adhesive forces
