(a)
Interpretation:
The effect of increased strength of intermolecular forces on boiling point of liquids has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Dipole-dipole interactions come into play when partial charges of different dipoles interact with each other. Higher polarity between molecules more will be dipole-dipole interactions between them and vice-versa. Boiling point is governed by strength of dipole-dipole interactions that is measured in terms of dipole moments. Boiling point is directly related to dipole moment of molecules. More dipole moment of molecules, higher will be boiling point and vice-versa.
(b)
Interpretation:
The effect of increased temperature on viscosity of liquids has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Viscosity is characteristic property of liquid particles that allows resistance to their flow. In other words, it represents opposition to flow of liquids.
(c)
Interpretation:
The effect of increased temperature on surface tension of liquids has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).

- Explain why liquids assume the shape of any container into which they are poured, whereas solids are rigid and retain their shape.arrow_forwardIn terms of the kinetic molecular theory, in what ways are liquids similar to solids? In what ways are liquids different from solids?arrow_forwardUsing the explanation of unbalanced forces as the source of surface tension, justify why it requires energy to increase the surface area of a liquid. Is there any circumstance in which energy is given off when increasing a liquids surface area?arrow_forward
- Silane SiH4, phosphine (PH3), and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) melt at 185 C, 133 C, and 85 C, respectively. What does this suggest about the polar character and intermolecular attractions of the three compounds?arrow_forwardLiquid ethylene glycol, HOCH2CH2OH, is one of the main ingredients in commercial antifreeze. Would you predict its viscosity to be greater or less than that of ethanol, CH3CH2OH?arrow_forwardIn which of the following processes is it necessary to break covalent bonds as opposed to simply overcoming intermolecular forces? (a) Decomposing HCI to H2 and Cl2 (b) Dissolving NaCl in water (c) Freezing ethyl alcohol (d) Subliming iodinearrow_forward
- The test tubes shown here contain equal amounts of the specified motor oils. Identical metal spheres were dropped at the same time into each of the tubes, and a brief moment later, the spheres had fallen to the heights indicated in the illustration. Rank the motor oils in order of increasing viscosity, and explain your reasoning:arrow_forwardstrongest intermolecular force stated above. Explain how does high temperature affect the surface tension. (a) Diamond is an allotrope of carbon. Draw the lattice struarrow_forwardThe surface tension and viscosity values for diethyl ether, acetone, ethanol, and ethylene glycol are shown here. (a) Explain their differences in viscosity in terms of the size and shape of their molecules and their IMFs. (b) Explain their differences in surface tension in terms of the size and shape of their molecules and their IMFs:arrow_forward
- Identify the true statements about surface tension. Molecules along the surface of a liquid behave differently than those in the bulk liquid. Water forming a droplet as it falls from a faucet is a primary example of surface tension. Mercury has a lower surface tension than water. Surface tension increases as the temperature of the liquid rises. Cohesive forces attract the molecules of the liquid to one another.arrow_forwardThe metal calcium melts at a temperature of 839 °C and boils at 1484 °C, whereas the metal chromium melts at a temperature of 1857 °C and boils at 2672 °C. (a) Which metal will be more volatile at room temperature? (b) Predict which of the two molten metals has the larger surface tension at its melting point.arrow_forwardBased on the type or types of intermolecular forces, predictthe substance in each pair that has the higher boiling point:(a) propane (C3H8) or n-butane (C4H10), (b) diethyl ether(CH3CH2OCH2CH3) or 1-butanol (CH3CH2CH2CH2OH),(c) sulfur dioxide (SO2) or sulfur trioxide (SO3), (d) phosgene(Cl2CO) or formaldehyde (H2CO).arrow_forward
