Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The main intermolecular force of given liquid chromatography solvents has to be explained.
Concept Introduction: The London dispersion force is the weakest intermolecular force. When the electrons in two adjacent atoms live in positions to make the atoms structure temporary dipoles. This force is occasionally called induced dipole-induced dipole magnetism.
A dipole-dipole interaction is the desirability among two polar molecules
A hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between two polar groups that occurs when a Hydrogen atom, covalently bound to a highly electronegative atom such as Nitrogen, Fluorine, and Oxygen.

EBK CHEMISTRY: AN ATOMS FIRST APPROACH
- Predict the relative solubility of each compound in the two solvents, based on the intermolecular attractions. (a) Is potassium iodide more soluble in water or in methylene chloride (CH2Cl2)? (b) Is toluene (C6H5CH3) more soluble in benzene (C6H6) or in water? (c) Is ethylene glycol (C2H4(OH)2) more soluble in hexane (C6H14) or in ethanol (C2H5OH)?arrow_forwardIn flushing and cleaning columns used in liquid chromatography to remove adsorbed contaminants, a series of solvents is used. Hexane (C6H14), chloroform (CHCl3), methanol (CH3OH), and water are passed through the column in that order. Rationalize the order in terms of intermolecular forces and the mutual solubility (miscibility) of the solvents.arrow_forwardThe dispersed phase of a certain colloidal dispersion consists of spheres of diameter 1.0 102 nm. (a) What are the volume (V=43r2) and surface area (A = r2) of each sphere? (b) How many spheres are required to give a total volume of 1.0 cm3? What is the total surface area of these spheres in square meters?arrow_forward

- The blue line on the diagram illustrates the effect of using fractional distillation to separate a mixture of hexane (C6H14) and heptane (C7H16). If one starts a fractional distillation with a 0.20 mole fraction of hexane, what is the approximate mole fraction of hexane in the vapor phase after two evaporation condensation cycles?

- Distinguish between a strong electrolyte, a weak electrolyte, and a nonelectrolyte. How can colligative properties be used to distinguish between them? What is the vant Hoff factor? Why is the observed freezing-point depression for electrolyte solutions sometimes less than the calculated value? Is the discrepancy greater for concentrated or dilute solutions?arrow_forwardVapor-pressure lowering is a colligative property, as are freezing-point depression and boiling-point elevation. What is a colligative property? Why is the freezing point depressed for a solution as compared to the pure solvent? Why is the boiling point elevated for a solution as compared to the pure solvent? Explain how to calculate T for a freezing-point depression problem or a boiling-point elevation problem.
