(a)
Interpretation:
The given statement, following questions has to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Intermolecular forces are Van der Waals forces. They are weak and have three types viz., London dispersion forces, dipole-dipole forces and hydrogen bonding. Hydrogen bonding is relatively the strongest one.
- Intermolecular forces are the forces acting between molecules whereas Intramolecular forces are the forces that operate within a molecule.
- Hydrogen bonding is a special type of Dipole-dipole forces but stronger than the former.
- London dispersion forces exist in non-polar covalent compounds whereas dipole-dipole forces exist in polar covalent compounds but both are weak.
- Larger the molecular size, stronger the London dispersion force.
- Arrangement of major types of intermolecular forces in increasing order of strength:
There exist no deviations in this arrangement.
(b)
Interpretation:
The given statement, following questions has to be explained.
The substance has smaller heat of fusion has to be identified.

- The molar heat of fusion of sodium metal is 2.60 kJ/mol, whereas its heat of vaporization is 97.0 kJ/mol. a. Why is the heat of vaporization so much larger than the heat of fusion? b. What quantity of heat would be needed to melt 1.00 g sodium at its normal melting point? c. What quantity of heat would be needed to vaporize 1.00 g sodium at its normal boiling point? d. What quantity of heat would be evolved if 1.00 g sodium vapor condensed at its normal boiling point?arrow_forwardKrypton, Kr, has a triple point at 169C and 133 mmHg and a critical point at 63C and 54 atm. The density of the solid is 2.8 g/cm3, and the density of the liquid is 2.4 g/cm3. Sketch a rough phase diagram of krypton. Circle the correct word in each of the following sentences (and explain your answers). a Solid krypton at 130 mmHg (melts, sublimes without melting) when the temperature is raised. b Solid krypton at 760 mmHg (melts, sublimes without melting) when the temperature is raised.arrow_forwardWater at 0C was placed in a dish inside a vessel maintained at low pressure by a vacuum pump. After a quantity of water had evaporated, the remainder froze. If 9.31 g of ice at 0C was obtained, how much liquid water must have evaporated? The heat of fusion of water is 6.01 kJ/mol and its heat of vaporization is 44.9 kJ/mol at 0C.arrow_forward
- The types of intermolecular forces in a substance are identical whether it is a solid, a liquid, or a gas. Why then does a substance change phase from a gas to a liquid or to a solid?arrow_forwardSilicon carbide, SiC, is a very hard, high-melting solid. What kind of crystal forces account for these properties?arrow_forwardIdentify the type of crystalline solid (metallic, network covalent, ionic, or molecular) formed by each of the following substances: (a) CaCl2 (b) SiC (c) N2 (d) Fe (e) C (graphite) (f) CH3CH2CH2CH3 (g) HCl (h) NH4NO3 (j) K3PO4arrow_forward
- 8.51 Suppose that three unknown pure substances are liquids at room temperature. You determine that the boiling point of substance A is 53°C, that of substance B is 117°C, and that of substance C is 77°C. Based on this information, rank the three substances in order of their vapor pressures at room temperature.arrow_forwardSome water is placed in a sealed glass container connected to a vacuum pump (a device used to pump gases from a container), and the pump is turned on. The water appears to boil and then freezes. Explain these changes using the phase diagram for water. What would happen to the ice if the vacuum pump was left on indefinitely?arrow_forward
