state of matter is an intermediate phase between solid and gas |
liquid |
|
is the process of changing from a liquid or solid state into vapor (like fog, mist, or steam). |
Evaporation |
|
is the amount of energy required to stretch or increase the surface of a liquid by a unit area. Liquids that have strong intermolecular forces also have high |
surface tension |
|
water has a considerably greater surface tension than most other liquids. |
hydrogen bonding |
|
enables the water strider to "walk" on water. |
Surface tension |
|
of a liquid depends on intermolecular forces, because the ease or difficulty with which a molecule leaves the liquid depends on the strength of its attraction to other molecules. |
vapor pressure |
|
of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid and the liquid changes into a vapor. |
boiling point |
|
can be used to predict relative boiling points |
Intermolecular forces (IMFs) |
|
H-bonding> dipole-dipole > London dispersion (van der Waals) |
Stronger to weaker |
|
is a graph of vapor pressure as a function of temperature |
vapor pressure curve |
