- A special vessel (see Fig. 10.45) contains ice and supercooled water (both at 10C) connected by vapor space. Describe what happens to the amounts of ice and water as time passes.arrow_forwardThe amount of heat required to melt 2 lbs of ice is twice the amount of heat required to melt 1 lb of ice. Is this observation a macroscopic or microscopic description of chemical behavior? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardThe enthalpy of vaporization of water is larger than its enthalpy of fusion. Explain why.arrow_forward
- Consider the iodine monochloride molecule, ICI. Because chlorine is more electronegative than iodine, this molecule is a dipole. How would you expect iodine monochloride molecules in the gaseous state to orient themselves with respect to each other as the sample is cooled and the molecules begin to aggregate? Sketch the orientation you would expect.arrow_forwardAre changes in state physical or chemical changes? Explain. What type of forces must be overcome to melt or vaporize a substance (are these forces intramolecular or intermolecular)? Define the molar heat of fusion and molar heat of vaporization. Why is the molar heat of vaporization of water so much larger than its molar heat of fusion? Why does the boiling point of a liquid vary with altitude?arrow_forwardExplain why liquids assume the shape of any container into which they are poured, whereas solids are rigid and retain their shape.arrow_forward
- Explain why the enthalpies of vaporization of the following substances increase in the order CH4NH3H2O, even though all three substances have approximately the same molar mass.arrow_forwardWhat types of forces exist between the individual particles in an ionic solid? Are these threes relatively strong or relatively weak?arrow_forwardWhat term is used to describe a substance that readily evaporates at room temperature because of a high vapor pressure?arrow_forward
- Why do liquids have a vapor pressure? Do all liquids have vapor pressures? Explain. Do solids exhibit vapor pressure? Explain. How does vapor pressure change with changing temperature? Explain.arrow_forwardA common prank on college campuses is to switch the salt and sugar on dining hall tables, which is usually easy because the substances look so much alike. Yet, despite the similarity in their appearance, these two substances differ greatly in their properties, since one is a molecular solid and the other is an ionic solid. How do the properties differ and why?arrow_forwardWhich change happens when a substance melts? O The molecules of the substance move farther apart, which pulls on the intermolecular Donds betweenr iem. Heat energy overcomes the forces of attraction between the molecules of the substance, so the molecules can move more freely. O Heat energy forces the molecules of the substance farther apart until the rigid structure of the solid breaks. The vibration of the molecules produces enough heat to weaken the forces of attraction between the molecules of the substance. Type here to search 立arrow_forward
