(a)
Interpretation:
The liquid that is expected to have greater enthalpy of vaporization has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Intermolecular forces: Intermolecular forces are electrostatic in nature and include van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds. Molecules in liquids are held to other molecules by intermolecular interactions, which are weaker than the intramolecular interactions that hold the atoms together within molecules and polyatomic ions. The three major types of intermolecular interactions are,
- Dipole-dipole interactions
- London dispersion forces
- Hydrogen bonds

(d)
Answer to Problem 11.56QE
The enthalpy of vaporization is expected to be greater for
Explanation of Solution
The intermolecular force present in ammonia is hydrogen bonding and the intermolecular force present in phosphine is dipole-dipole attraction/London dispersion force. The enthalpy of vaporization of liquid depends on its boiling point. The boiling point of ammonia is said to be greater. Stronger the intermolecular force, higher the boiling point, greater will be the enthalpy of vaporization. Therefore, the enthalpy of vaporization of ammonia would greater than phosphine.

- he enthalpy (H)of vaporization of water is about seven times larger than water’s enthalpy fusion(41kJ/molvs.6kJ/mol). What does this tell us about the relative similarities among the solid, liquid, and gaseous states of water?arrow_forwardSilane SiH4, phosphine (PH3), and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) melt at 185 C, 133 C, and 85 C, respectively. What does this suggest about the polar character and intermolecular attractions of the three compounds?arrow_forwardDiethyl ether (CH3CH2OCH2CH3) was one of the first chemicals used as an anesthetic. At 34.6C, diethyl ether has a vapor pressure of 760. torr, and at 17.9C, it has a vapor pressure of 400. torr. What is the H of vaporization for diethyl ether?arrow_forward
- Define critical temperature and critical pressure. In terms of the kinetic molecular theory, why is it impossible for a substance to exist as a liquid above its critical temperature?arrow_forwardp-Dichlorobenzene, C6H4Cl2, can be one of the ingredients in mothballs. Its vapor pressure at 20C is 0.40 mm Hg. (a) How many milligrams of C6H4Cl2 will sublime into an evacuated 750-mL flask at 20C? (b) If 5.0 mg of p-dichlorobenzene were put into an evacuated 750-mL flask, how many milligrams would remain in the solid phase? (c) What is the final pressure in an evacuated 500-mL flask at 20C that contains 2.00 mg of p-dichlorobenzene? Will there be any solid in the flask?arrow_forwardDichloromethane, CH2Cl2,is widely used as a degreaser and paint stripper. Its vapor pressure is 381.0 mm Hg at 21.9C and 465.8 mm Hg at 26.90C. Estimate (a) its heat of vaporization (Hvap). (b) its normal boiling point.arrow_forward
- Trichloroethane, C2H3Cl3, is the active ingredient in aerosols that claim to stain-proof men's ties. Trichloroethane has a vapor pressure of 100.0 mm Hg at 20.0C and boils at 74.1C. An uncovered cup (12pint) of trichloroethane (d=1.325g/mL) is kept in an 18-ft3 refrigerator at 39F. What percentage (by mass) of the trichloroethane is left as a liquid when equilibrium is established?arrow_forwardLiquid ethylene glycol, HOCH2CH2OH, is one of the main ingredients in commercial antifreeze. Would you predict its viscosity to be greater or less than that of ethanol, CH3CH2OH?arrow_forwardThe normal boiling point of SO2 is 263.1 K and that of NH3 is 239.7 K. At −40 °C, would you predict that ammonia has a vapor pressure greater than, less than, or equal to that of sulfur dioxide? Explain.arrow_forward
