- Methane, CH4, reacts with chlorine, Cl2, to produce a series of chlorinated hydrocarbons: methyl chloride (CH3Cl), methylene chloride (CH2Cl3), chloroform (CHCl3), and carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). Which compound has the highest vapor pressure at room temperature? Explain.arrow_forwardEthyl chloride (boiling point, 13 C) is used as a local anesthetic. When the liquid is sprayed on the skin, it cools the skin enough to freeze and numb it. Explain the cooling effect of liquid ethyl chloride.arrow_forward8.52 Rank the following hydrocarbons in order of increasing vapor pressure: C2H6,C10H22,CH4,C7H16,C22H46 .arrow_forward
- Consider the following electrostatic potential diagrams: Rank the compounds from lowest to highest boiling point and explain your answer.arrow_forwardYou add 0.255 g of an orange, crystalline compound whose empirical formula is C10H8Fe to 11.12 g of benzene. The boiling point of the benzene rises from 80.10 C to 80.26 C. What are the molar mass and molecular formula of the compound?arrow_forwardIn each of the following groups of substances, pick the one that has the given property. Justify your answer. a. highest boiling point: HBr, Kr, or Cl2 b. highest freezing point: H2O, NaCl, or HF c. lowest vapor pressure at 25C: Cl2, Br2, or I2 d. lowest freezing point: N2, CO, or CO2 e. lowest boiling point: CH4, CH3CH3, or CH3CH2CH3 f. highest boiling point: HF, HCl, or HBr g.arrow_forward
- 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_forwardA solution of benzoic acid in benzene has a freezing point of 3.1 C and a boiling point of 82.6 C. (The freezing point of pure benzene is 5.50 C, and its boiling point is 80.1 C) The structure of benzoic acid is Benzoic acid, C6H5CO2H What can you conclude about the state of the benzoic acid molecules at the two different temperatures? Recall the discussion of hydrogen bonding in Section 11.3.arrow_forward
