(a) resistance to flow
(b) especially strong dipole-dipole forces between polar molecules that contain hydrogen attached to highly electronegative element
(c) the transition of gas-state atoms or molecules to the molecules to the solid state
(d) a substances that can flow (a gas or a liquid)
(e) the geometric arrangement of points occupied by particles in a crystalline solid
(f) the curved upper surface of a liquid column
(g) the temperature at which the liquid and solid state of a substances are in equilibrium (identical to the melting point)
(h) a solid in which all atoms are held together by covalent bonds to make a giant molecule
(i) a substance in which the particles are arranged in a regular, repeating geometric structure
(j) the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the standard atmospheric pressure 1 atm
(k) a temporary dipole formed by the movement of electrons within a molecule
(l) the work necessary to expand the surface of a liquid; the property of a liquid surface that causes it to behave like a stretched membrane

Introduction to Chemistry
- Using the explanation of unbalanced forces as the source of surface tension, justify why it requires energy to increase the surface area of a liquid. Is there any circumstance in which energy is given off when increasing a liquids surface area?arrow_forwardThe molar heat of vaporization of substance X is 34kJ/mol; of substance Y, 27kJ/mol. Which substance would be expected to have the higher normal boiling point? The higher vapor pressure at 25C?arrow_forwardThe covalent compounds ethyl alcohol and dimethyl ether both have the formula C2H6O. However, the alcohol melts at 117.3C and boils at 78.5C, whereas the ether melts at 138.5C and boils at 23.7C. How could differences in forces between molecules be used to explain these observations?arrow_forward
