(a)
Interpretation:
Whether compound B has higher molar mass is justified by boiling point data or is erroneous or can be true or false has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Dipole-dipole interactions come into play when partial charges of different dipoles interact with each other. Higher polarity between molecules, more will be dipole-dipole interactions between them and vice-versa. Boiling point is governed by strength of dipole-dipole interactions that is measured in terms of dipole moments. Boiling point is directly related to dipole moment of molecules. More dipole moment of molecules, higher will be boiling point and vice-versa.
(b)
Interpretation:
Whether compound A is more viscous is justified by boiling point data or is erroneous or can be true or false has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Viscosity is characteristic property of liquid particles that allows resistance to their flow. In other words, it represents opposition to flow of liquids.
(c)
Interpretation:
Whether compound B has stronger intermolecular forces is justified by boiling point data or is erroneous or can be true or false has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).
(d)
Interpretation:
Whether compound B has higher surface tension is justified by boiling point data or is erroneous or can be true or false has to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Attractive forces that act on molecules present on liquid surface in order to pull them into bulk of liquid is known as surface tension. Due to this surface tension, molecules tend to occupy as minimum surface area as possible.

- 5. Acetone and 2-propanol are chemically interconvertible. Reduction (by the addition of the equivalent of H2) of acetone yields 2-propanol. Conversely, oxidation (by the removal of the equivalent of H2) of 2-propanol yields acetone. Is the evaporation data for these substances the same or different? If different, can you account for why this may be the case from a comparison of the Lewis structures of each substance and the IMFs present in each substance? Explain.arrow_forwardYou will not find “hydroxide” in the stockroom, but you will find sodium hydroxide (NaOH) andpotassium hydroxide (KOH). Lithium hydroxide (LiOH) is expensive and used in spacecraft airfilters since hydroxide reacts with carbon dioxide, and lithium is lighter than sodium or potassium.Cesium and francium hydroxides are very expensive and little used. Is this information consistentwith your answer to the previous question?arrow_forward(A) if both sentences are true, (B) if both sentences are false, (C) if the first sentence is true but the second is false, and (D) if the first sentence is false but the second is true. 1. Water appears in nature in all three common states of matter. Water is a tasteless, odorless liquid at standard temperature and pressure. 2. The addition of salt in the distilling mixture made the water impure and saline. The addition of 5 drops of the silver nitrate solution into the distillate determines whether the distillate is impure or pure water. 3. The ideal electrical conductivity of totally pure water is 0.055 microSiemens, whereas typical deionized water has an electrical conductivity of 0.1 microSiemens. The freezing point of water at 1 atm is 100degC. 4. From the air, oxygen can slowly diffuse across the water’s surface from the surrounding atmosphere, or be mixed in quickly through aeration, whether natural or man-made. The aeration of water can be caused by wind (creating waves),…arrow_forward
