Study Notes
Liquid Phase
- The liquid state is denser than gases and has less kinetic energy than gases.
- Liquids are less compressible than gases but more compressible than solids.
- Intermolecular forces in liquids are stronger than in gases but weaker than in solids, allowing flow with limited compressibility.
Properties of Liquids
- Liquids have little kinetic energy and engage in collisions with each other and their container, transferring energy.
- Particles at the surface of a liquid can escape into vapor when they gain enough energy to overcome surface tension.
- Not all liquid particles need to reach boiling point to become vapor; some already possess sufficient kinetic energy.
Vapor Pressure
- Vapor pressure refers to the pressure of gas or vapor above a liquid in a closed container.
- Equilibrium vapor pressure does not depend on liquid volume, atmospheric pressure, or the presence of other vapor.
- As temperature increases, the number of molecules achieving the velocity needed to enter the gaseous state increases, raising vapor pressure.
Clausius-Clapeyron Equation
- Defines the relationship between vapor pressure and absolute temperature of a liquid.
- When a liquid's vapor pressure equals atmospheric pressure, bubbles form rapidly, indicating boiling and reflecting the thermal agitation overcoming attractive forces between molecules.
- Boiling point is a key property and correlates with the strength of attractive forces in a liquid.
Boiling Point Trends
- Boiling points of hydrocarbons, simple alcohols, and carboxylic acids rise with molecular weight due to increased van der Waals forces.
- The branching of hydrocarbon chains leads to a decrease in boiling points due to reduced intermolecular attraction and less compact molecular structure.
Calculations
