- The atmospheric pressure at the summit of Mount Everest is 0.335 atm. At what temperature does water boil at the summit? The ΔHvap for water is 40.79 kJ/mol. ( Hint: What is the normal BP for water?)arrow_forwardThe molecular mass of butanol, C4H,OH, is 74.14; that of ethylene glycol, CH2(OH)CH,OH, is 62.08, yet their boiling points are 117.2 °C and 174 °C, respectively. Explain the reason for the difference. The two hydroxyl groups in ethylene glycol provide more locations for the formation of hydrogen bonds. The existence of more hydrogen bonds considerably decreases the boiling point O The two hydroxyl groups in ethylene glycol provide less locations for the formation of hydrogen bonds. The existence of less hydrogen bonds considerably increases the boiling point The two hydroxyl groups in ethylene glycol provide more locations for the formation of hydrogen bonds.

- Methane clathrate also called methane hydrate is a form of ice in which methane gas has been trapped inside the crystal structure. Methane hydrate has the formula CH4·5¾ H2O or 4CH4·23H2O. Large quantities of methane hydrate have been discovered in ocean sediments around the world. Mining these deposits to obtain methane (i.e. natural gas) has been discussed for years. Determine the percent water in methane hydrate. How many moles of methane could be recovered from 1.00 ton (2000 lbs) of methane hydrate? [1 kg = 2.2 lbs]arrow_forward5. Although ethanol has a higher molar mass than water and exhibits the same IMF as water, ethanol shows a much larger drop in temperature during evaporation. Why is that? Be specific.arrow_forwardPredict which liquid—glycerol, HOCH2CH(OH)CH2OH, or hexane, C6H14—has the greater surface tension. Explain your prediction.arrow_forward
- Why do liquids have a vapor pressure? Do all liquids have vapor pressures? Explain. Do solids exhibit vapor pressure? Explain. How does vapor pressure change with changing temperature? Explain.arrow_forwardA special vessel (see Fig. 10.45) contains ice and supercooled water (both at 10C) connected by vapor space. Describe what happens to the amounts of ice and water as time passes.arrow_forwardConsider 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_forward
- Shouldn't the water and sucrose produce dipole-dipole intermolecular forces? Based on our experiment, the solution of water and sucrose conducted electricity as evidenced by the light that was seen on a light bulb. However, it took a few seconds to light and the light was not very bright. What could be the cause of this conduction if covalent bonds cannot conduct electricity?arrow_forwardCan you please solve this questionarrow_forwardIf you place 30.0 L of hexane (C6H14) in a sealed room that is 3.75 m long, 2 m wide, and 3 m high, will all the hexane evaporate? If some liquid remains, how much will there be? The vapor pressure of hexane is 152 torr at 25 °C, and the density of the liquid at this temperature is 0.655 g/mL. Treat the room dimensions as exact numbers.arrow_forward
