Chapter 12, Problem 12.62P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the strength of the intermolecular forces in the liquid changes or not when the liquid is heated is to be determined. Also, the reason for the increase in the viscosity with temperature is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Intermolecular forces operate between the molecules so changes with change in the phase and effects with physical properties of the substance. In intermolecular forces, the bond is formed between two molecules with partial charges that are present relatively far away from each other.

Viscosity is the quantity that determines the resistance of the liquid to flow. Both liquids and gases can flow but gases have high viscosity than liquids.
