    Study Notes

    States of Matter

    • Matter exists in four states: gas, liquid, solid, and plasma.
    • Gases have no fixed volume or shape; liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container; solids have a fixed volume and shape; plasmas are ionized gases.

    Intermolecular Forces

    • Intermolecular forces are attractive forces between molecules.
    • Four types exist:
      • Permanent Dipole-Permanent Dipole (Keesom Forces): Occur between polar molecules due to attraction of opposite charges (δ+ and δ-). Average interaction energy is approximately 4 kJ/mol. Examples include BrF and SO2.
      • Permanent Dipole-Induced Dipole (Debye Forces): A polar molecule induces a dipole in a nonpolar molecule. Weaker than permanent dipole-permanent dipole forces.
      • Induced Dipole-Induced Dipole (London Dispersion Forces): Present between all molecules, weakest of the intermolecular forces. Important for symmetrical nonpolar substances like CO2, O2, N2, Br2, H2 and noble gases.
      • Hydrogen Bonding: Strongest type of intermolecular force discussed. Responsible for high melting and boiling points of water, alcohols, and ammonia. Critical in protein structure.

    Intermolecular Forces Examples

    • Water (H2O): Hydrogen bonding, permanent dipole-permanent dipole, and London dispersion forces.
    • Iodine (I2): London dispersion forces.
    • Nitrogen dioxide (NO2): Permanent dipole-permanent dipole and London dispersion forces.

    Dissolution Process

    • A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances.
    • It consists of a solvent (usually the most abundant substance) and one or more solutes.
    • Dissolution can occur with or without a chemical reaction.
      • With reaction: Example: Sodium metal reacts with water to form a solution of sodium hydroxide, yielding NaOH upon evaporation.
      • Without reaction: Example: Sodium chloride solution yields NaCl upon evaporation.

    Factors Affecting Dissolution

    • Energy change (heat of solution, ΔHsolution): Exothermic processes (ΔHsolution < 0) are favored. Endothermic processes can occur if compensated by increased disorder.

    • Entropy change (increase in disorder): Favors dissolution.

    • Three enthalpy changes involved in dissolution are:

      • Breaking solute-solute attractions (endothermic).
      • Separating solvent molecules (endothermic).
      • Solute-solvent interaction (exothermic).

    • "Like dissolves like": Polar solvents dissolve polar solutes, and nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar solutes.

    Dissolution of Solids in Liquids

    • NaCl dissolves in water because the increase in disorder and hydration energy outweighs the crystal lattice energy.
    • Nonpolar solids like naphthalene dissolve readily in nonpolar solvents because there are minimal intermolecular forces between solute and solvent.
    • Factors affecting crystal lattice energy: Charge of ions (higher charge, higher energy), size of ions (smaller size, higher energy).

    Dissolution of Liquids in Liquids

    • Miscibility (analogous to solubility) is determined by intermolecular forces; "like dissolves like" applies.
    • The process is typically exothermic.

    Dissolution of Gases in Liquids

    • Polar gases dissolve best in polar solvents, and vice versa.
    • CO2 is more soluble in water than O2 due to its reaction with water to form carbonic acid.
