Concept introduction:
The heat of fusion of a compound is the amount of energy required to convert solid into liquid form. The heat of fusion depends upon the intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules and is also directly proportional to the molar mass of the compound.

- For each of the following pairs, choose the member with the lower boiling point. Explain your reason in each case. (a) NaCl or PCl3 (b) NH3 or AsH3 (c) C3H7OH or C2H5OCH3 (d) HI(g) or HCl(g)arrow_forwardhe enthalpy (H)of vaporization of water is about seven times larger than water’s enthalpy fusion(41kJ/molvs.6kJ/mol). What does this tell us about the relative similarities among the solid, liquid, and gaseous states of water?arrow_forwardUse Figure 11.7 to estimate the boiling point of diethyl ether, (C2H5)2O, under an external pressure of 470 mmHg.arrow_forward
- Calculate the grams of oxygen gas required to produce 7.60 kJ of heat when hydrogen gas burns at constant pressure to give liquid water, given the following: 2H2(g)+O2(g)2H2O(g);H=484kJ Liquid water has a heat of vaporization of 44.0 kJ per mole at 25C.arrow_forward5-86 Using the phase diagram of water (Figure 5-20), describe the process by which you can sublime 1 g of ice at-10°C and at 1 atm pressure to water vapor at the same temperature.arrow_forwardIn which of the following processes is it necessary to break covalent bonds as opposed to simply overcoming intermolecular forces? (a) Decomposing HCI to H2 and Cl2 (b) Dissolving NaCl in water (c) Freezing ethyl alcohol (d) Subliming iodinearrow_forward
- 5-106 The normal boiling point of hexane, C6H14, is 69°C, and that of pentane, C5H12, is 36°C. Predict which of these compounds has a higher vapor pressure at 20°C.arrow_forwardChloroform, CHCl3, has a normal boiling point of 61C. Its vapor pressure at 43C is 0.526 atm. What is the concentration (in g/L) of CHCl3 when it saturates the air at 27C?arrow_forwardDecide which substance in each of the following pairs has the lower melting point. Explain how you made each choice. a potassium chloride, KCl; or calcium oxide, CaO b carbon tetrachloride, or hexachloroethane, c zinc, Zn; or chromium, Cr d acetic acid, CH3COOH; or ethyl chloride, C2H5Clarrow_forward
