Water exhibits a unique property of surface tension. What happens among the water molecules to cause this property to occur? The water molecules begin to spread out rapidly near the surface of the water. The water molecules are nonpolar and repel each other near the surface of the water. O The water molecules are strongly attracted to each other through hydrogen bonding. O The water molecules do not move very quickly near the surface of the water.

On the basis of the distribution of kinetic energies of the molecules in a liquid, explain why increasing the liquid's temperature increases the rate of evaporation. Select all that apply. O The molecules with low kinetic energy are the first to evaporate. O The molecules with high kinetic energy are the first to evaporate. O As the temperature increases, the average kinetic energy of the molecules increases. O As the temperature increases, a larger fraction of the molecules have sufficient energy to escape from the liquid. O As the temperature increases, a smaller fraction of the molecules have sufficient energy to escape from the liquid. O None of these. eTextbook and Media Save for Later Attempts: 0 of 15 used Submit Answer МacBook Air 吕0 888 F5 F6 F7 F8 F9 F10 F3 F4 F2
A scientist is comparing the properties of the molecules HF and HCl. Unfortunately, he mixes up the beakers containing the molecules. To solve this, he decides to find the boiling point of each. He finds that the molecule in beaker A has a higher boiling point than beaker B. Which molecule is in beaker A and which is in beaker B? Explain your answer. ***Be sure to include the type of intermolecular forces experienced by BOTH molecules when explaining your answer.***
What will not happen if you place water into a sealed container? O The water will all become vapor. Water will become a dynamic system. O Some of the water molecules will start to evaporate to become vapor. Some of the vapor molecules will condense to become a liquid.
The water molecules form hydrogen bonds with themselves resulting in much stronger bonds than those of other liquids. The stronger the bonding, the less the possibility of the water molecules evaporating into vapor. This is due to: O water's polarity O low surface tension O temperature of the water high vapor pressure MacBook Ai
Select all the following that apply when we experiment to determine the surface tension of a liquid on the surface of a penny. A. liquids with greatest surface tension values produce the tallest droplets B. liquids with the greatest surface tension values produce the shortest droplets C. liquids with the least surface tension values produce the tallest droplets D. liquids with the least surface tension values produce the shortest droplets
20. In the table, below, for each of the substances listed under the "Molecule" column, list it's dominant intermolecular force next to it in the "Intermolecular Force" column. Molecule Intermolecular Force HF CH:l: CHe SO: NF3 CO: CF4
If you place a container of a mixture of liquid water and water vapor (the system) on a hotplate: When the hotplate temperature is above 100 °C what change will occur in the system? Name the process. Draw a molecular level representation of the change as the thermal energy is added during this process. Be sure to label the strongest intermolecular force and use a dashed line (- - -) to distinguish it from covalent bonds.
