Describe the general relationship between the vapor pressure of a liquid and the relative strength of intermolecular forces.
4. What is the relationship between a liquid's molecular weight and the strength of
intermolecular bonds (assume the liquid is only compared to other liquids that lo
similar intermolecular bonds)? Use the molecular structures and weights of ethano
and methanol, the types of intra- and inter- molecular bonds they make and the
observations you made of ethanol and methanol in this investigation to support your
answer.

Annealing consists of heating the substance to a temperature just below the melting point of the crystalline form and then cooling it slowly. Explain why this process helps produce a crystalline solid.arrow_forwardA special vessel (see Fig. 10.45) contains ice and supercooled water (both at 10C) connected by vapor space.

- Consider the difference between boiling water and boiling oil. Water boils at 100°C, while oil requires a much higher temperature. This difference is due to the intermolecular forces between the molecules. Water molecules are held together by hydrogen bonds, which are stronger than the Van der Waals forces in oil. As a result, more energy is needed to break the bonds in water, leading to its lower boiling point. Which statement best explains the effect of intermolecular forces on boiling points? A) Stronger intermolecular forces result in higher boiling points. B) All liquids boil at the same temperature regardless of intermolecular forces. C) Weaker intermolecular forces result in higher boiling points. D) Intermolecular forces have no effect on boiling points.arrow_forwardWater, Methanol, Ethanol, and Acetone Which substance do you predict has the strongest intermolecular forces and why?
