Chapter 8, Problem 8.37AP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The difference in physical state of Iodine and bromine should be explained in terms of intermolecular forces.

Concept Introduction:

Intermolecular forces in a molecule are the important factor which is responsible for the physical changes of the molecule.

The intermolecular forces in gases are negligibly small and the forces are comparatively stronger for liquids and the intermolecular forces are highest in solids.

The stronger the intermolecular forces, closer will be the molecules in contact and thus higher will be the boiling point and melting point of the substance.

Three types of intermolecular forces:

  • London dispersion
  • Dipole-dipole
  • Hydrogen bonding

The main constituents in vinegar are water and ethanoic acid (CH3COOH). In order to determine the concentration of acid in homemade vinegar, a student titrated 25 cm3 of 001 M NaOH against the vinegar. The equation for the reaction is:                                     CH3COOH(aq) + NaOH(aq) ® CH3COONa(aq) + H2O(l)   The following titration results were obtained:   Burette readings (cm3) Rough 1 2 Final burette reading 20.10 38.90 31.40 Initial burette reading   0.10 20.00 12.50 Volume of vinegar used 20.00 18.90 18.90   (a) What volume of vinegar should be used in the calculation?                                           (b) What is the mole ratio of NaOH:CH3COOH?                                                              (c)  Calculate the number of moles of alkali in 25 cm3 of NaOH solution used.               (d) How many moles of acid were used in the titration?                                                    (e) Calculate the…
