Study Notes
Boiling Point and Vapor Pressure Concepts
- Boiling point is influenced by the strength of intermolecular forces within compounds.
- Compounds capable of hydrogen bonding exhibit higher boiling points due to stronger interactions.
- Non-polar compounds generally have lower boiling points, as they are affected primarily by weaker London dispersion forces.
Comparisons of Compounds
-
Lowest boiling point: CH3CH2CH3
- Non-polar with weakest London dispersion forces.
-
Highest vapor pressure: CH4
- Smallest non-polar compound, showing the weakest intermolecular forces and thus the highest vapor pressure.
Hydroxyl Group Effects
-
Highest boiling point: HOCH2CH2CH2CH2CH2OH
- Contains two hydroxyl groups, facilitating greater hydrogen bonding and leading to the highest boiling point among listed compounds.
-
Highest boiling point: CH3CH2CH2OH
- Exhibits hydrogen bonding, giving it a higher boiling point, unlike non-polar counterparts.
Vapor Pressure Relationships
-
Lowest vapor pressure: CH3CH2CH2CH3
- Largest surface area of the non-polar group results in the highest intermolecular forces, resulting in the lowest vapor pressure.
Solubility Principles
- The principle "like dissolves like" determines solubility, where non-polar substances dissolve well in non-polar solvents.
-
Most soluble in benzene: CH3CH2CH2CH2OH
- Longest carbon chain provides the largest non-polar region, making this compound the least polar and most soluble in benzene.
Ionic vs. Molecular Compounds
-
Highest boiling point: NaOCH3
- As an ionic compound, it has stronger bonds compared to the molecular compounds which rely on weaker intermolecular forces, resulting in a higher boiling temperature.
