This is a 10 point assignment
Objectives: After completing this unit, students should be able to:
- Explain the origin of the various types of intermolecular forces and indicate the kinds of intermolecular forces expected for a substance given its molecular structure.
- Distinguish between intermolecular and intramolecular forces.
- Explain the terms viscosity, surface tension, capillary action, meniscus, adhesion, and cohesion.
- List the different phase changes and identify them as endothermic or exothermic.
- Solve problems involving enthalpies of fusion and vaporization.
- Describe how the vapor pressure of a substance is affected by temperature and intermolecular forces of attraction.
- Understand the factors that influence the rate of evaporation and the relationship between boiling and evaporation.
- Define boiling point and normal boiling point and know the effect of pressure, intermolecular forces, and molar mass on each.
- Given the critical temperature and pressure of a substance, describe the conditions necessary to convert it from a gas to a liquid.
- Use a phase diagram to determine the physical state of a substance.
- Distinguish between crystalline and amorphous solids and give an example of each.
- Define unit cell and describe the number of atoms and their location in a simple cubic (primitive cubic), body-centered cubic and face-centered cubic unit cell.
