Chapter 12, Problem 3SC

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whe Ther the mixture will contain equal masses in the morning is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

The boiling point of a molecule depends on the intermolecular forces and thermal energy.

Intermolecular forces keep the molecules toge ther. Greater the intermolecular force, higher will be its boiling point.

Intermolecular forces are of two types: dispersion forces and dipole forces.

Dispersion forces are possessed by all the atoms or molecules; it depends upon the molar mass.

Dipole forces exist between polar molecules; it depends upon the polarity of molecules.
