(a)
Interpretation:
The boiling point of the ethanol is
Concept Introduction:
The intermolecular force is defined as the force which occurs between the one molecule to another as attraction. The intermolecular force is of following types −
- Hydrogen bond
- Dipole −Dipole interaction
- London Dispersion intermolecular force
(b)
Interpretation:
The boiling point of the hexane is
Concept Introduction:
The intermolecular force is defined as the force which occurs between the one molecule to another as attraction. The intermolecular force is of following types −
- Hydrogen bond
- Dipole-dipole interaction
- London dispersion intermolecular force
The boiling point of compound is directly proportional to the intermolecular force while the vapor pressure is inversely proportional to the intermolecular force of compound.

- Trichloroethane, C2H3Cl3 is used as a degreaser (solvent for waxes and oils). Its density is 1.435 g/mL and its vapor pressure at 20C is 124 mm Hg. (a) How many mL will vaporize in an evacuated 1.50-L flask at 20C? (b) A 3.00-mL sample is poured into an evacuated 1.5-L flask at 20C. Will all the liquid vaporize? If not, what is the pressure in the flask? (c) A similar 3.00-mL sample is poured into an evacuated 20.00-L flask at 20C. What physical state(s) is/are in the flask?arrow_forwardExplain why 15 g of steam at 100C melts more ice than 15 g of liquid water at 100C.arrow_forwardWhat phase changes will take place when water is subjected to varying pressure at a constant temperature of 0.005 C?

- A liquid has a vapH of 38.7 kJ/mol and a boiling point of 110 C at 1 atm pressure. Calculate the vapor pressure of the liquid at 97 C.arrow_forward8.51 Suppose that three unknown pure substances are liquids at room temperature. You determine that the boiling point of substance A is 53°C, that of substance B is 117°C, and that of substance C is 77°C. Based on this information, rank the three substances in order of their vapor pressures at room temperature.arrow_forward
