Mater exists primarily in 3 phases:
- solids
- liquids
- gas
Intermolecular Forces:
[attractive forces that exist between all molecules & atoms]

- forces that hold many liquids & solids

- responsible for the very existence of the condensed phases.
Thermal Energy:
the energy associated with the random motion of matter.
Table 11.1: Shows the density & molar vol. of water in its 3 different phases, along with molecular representation of each phase
Table 11.2: Properties of the Phases of Matter
In what two orders can a solid be?
1- Crystalline

2- Amorphous
Crystalline:
The atoms or molecules that compose them are arranged in a well-ordered 3D array
Amorphous:
the atoms or molecules that compose them have no long-range order.
Shows the 3 states of matter and the changes in conditions that commonly induce transitions between them
Shows the 3 states of matter and the changes in conditions that commonly induce transitions between them
Gases are Compressible
Conceptual Connection 11.1: Phase Changes
(A) When water boils, it simply changes phases from liquid to gas. Water molecules do not decompose during boiling.
Intermolecular forces are the result of:
Smaller charges interacting at greater distances
Dispersion Force (AKA London Force)
- present in all molecules & atoms

- result of fluctuations in the e- distribution w/ in molecules or atoms.
Instantaneous Dipole/ Temporary Dipole:
at an instant, one side of the atom will be slightly (-) while other side w/ no e-s will be slightly (+).

will induce an instantaneous dipole on its neighboring atom b/c the (+) end of the instantaneous dipole attracts e-s in the neighboring atoms.

(cont. from atom to atom... creating the dispersion force)
What does the magnitude of the dispersion force depend on?
- how easily the e-s in the atom/ molecule can move or polarize in response to an instantaneous dipole.

--------> depends on the size (vol) of the e- cloud
Why do larger molecules have greater dispersion force?
because they have larger e- clouds

e- are held less tightly by the nucleus & can therefore polarize easier.
How to determine whether a molecule is polar:
1) determine whether the molecule contains polar bonds

2) determine whether the polar bonds add together to form a net dipole moment.
Characteristics of polar molecules:
- high melting pts.

- high boiling pts.

- dispersion forces

- dipole-dipole forces
The relationship between dipole moment and boiling pt.
Miscibility:
the ability to mix without separating into two phases - of liquid.

"like dissolves like"
In what elements does h-bonding occur?
- Fluorine (F)
- Oxygen (O)
- Nitrogen (N)
Hydrogen bond:
a strong attraction between the hydrogen in each molecule & the F,O,N on its neighbors.
graph showing relation of H-bond and other molecules with their molecular mass and boiling pt.
Ion-dipole force:
- occurs when an ionic compound is mixed w/ a polar compound

- is especially important in aqueous solutions of ionic compounds.
Types of Intermolecular Forces:
surface tension of a liquid:
the energy required to increase the surface area by a unit amount.
If intermolecular forces decrease, surface tension will?
decrease
Viscosity:
the resistance of a liquid to flow
as intermolecular forces increase, viscosity will?
increase
as temperature increases, viscosity will?
decrease
Capillary action:
the ability of a liquid to flow against gravity up a narrow tube.

- results from a combination of cohesive forces, and adhesive forces.
cohesive forces:
the attraction between molecules in a liquid
adhesive forces:
the attraction between theses molecules and the surface of the tube
Vaporization:
the process by which thermal energy can overcome intermolecular forces & produce a phase change from liquid to gas.

- the phase transition from liquid to gas
Condensation:
the phase transition from gas to liquid.
as temperature increase, vaporization?
increases
as intermolecular forces decrease, vaporization?
increases
as surface area increases, vaporization?
increases
volatile liquids:
vaporize easily
nonvolatile liquids:
do not vaporize easily
summarizing the process of vaporization:
- the rate of vaporization increases with increasing temperature

- the rate of vaporization increases with increasing surface area

- the rate of vaporization increases with decreasing strength of intermolecular forces.
energy distribution curve
why is vaporization endothermic?
because it take energy to vaporize the molecules in a liquid
why is condensation exothermic?
because heat is released when a gas condenses to liquid.
heat of vaporization:
- the amount of heat required to vaporize one mole of a liquid to gas

- always (+) b/c the process is endothermic

- somewhat temperature dependent.
vapor pressure:
pressure of a gas in dynamic equilibrium w/ its liquid.

- depends on the intermolecular forces present in the liquid & the temp.
dynamic equilibrium
When the temperature of a liquid increases, what happens to the vapor pressure?
it increases
boiling pt. of a liquid:
the temp @ which its vapor pressure = the external pressure
normal boiling pt. of a liquid:
the temp. @ which its vapor pressure = 1atm
critical temperature:
the temp. above which the liquid cannot exist
critical pressure:
the pressure required to bring about a transition to a liquid at a critical temp.
supercritical fluid:
when gas and liquid phase commingle
Sublimation:
The phase transition from solid to gas
deposition:
the phase transition from gas to solid
Melting pt.:
molecules have enough thermal energy to overcome the intermolecular forces that hold them @ their stationary pts. & solid turns into liquid.

- process is called melting
Fusion (melting):
the phase transition from solid to liquid
Freezing:
the phase transition from liquid to solid.
Heat of fusion:
- the amount of heat required to melt 1 mole of solid

- (+) because melting is endothermic
example of heating curve:
Phase diagram:
a map of the phase of a substance as a function of pressure (y-axis) & temperature (x-axis)
Regions on a phase diagram:
(s,l,g)
represents conditions where that particular phase is stable.
Lines (curves) on the phase diagram:
represent a set of temperatures and pressures at which the substance is equilibrium between the two phases.
Triple point:
represents the unique set of conditions @ which 3 phases are equally stable & in equilibrium
critical point:
represents the temperature and pressure above which supercritical fluid exists.
Water properties:
- low molar mass (18.02g/mol)

- liquid at room temperature

- high boiling point because of strong hydrogen bonds with other water molecules.

- can dissolve many other polar and ionic compounds.

- is the main solvent within living organisms, and the environment.

- expands upon freezing leading to ice being less dense than liquid water.
cystalline solids:
comprising a well-ordered array of atoms or molecules
amorphous solids:
having no long-range order
simple cubic unit cell:
1 atom per unit cell. (each unit cell actually contains only one-eight of each of the eight atoms at its corners.
