(a)
Interpretation:
The compounds are arranged in the increasing order of the boiling point with the mass of the molecules and the attractive forces between the molecules deciding the normal boiling point of the substance is been discussed.
Concept Introduction:
Intermolecular forces are the forces between the molecules and the other particles which may be attractive and repulsive forces. These are also known as Van der Waals force that holds the molecules together.

- 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_forward5-89 (Chemical Connections 5C) In a sphygmomanometer one listens to the first tapping sound as the constrictive pressure of the arm cuff is slowly released. What is the significance of this tapping sound?arrow_forward6-84 (Chemical Connections 6D) What is the chemical formula for the main component of limestone and marble?arrow_forward
- 5-86 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_forward5-81 Compare the number of calories absorbed when 100. g of ice at 0°C is changed to liquid water at 37°C with the number of calories absorbed when 100. g of liquid water is warmed from 0°C to 37°C.arrow_forward5-111 Diving, particularly SCUBA (Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus) diving, subjects the body to increased pressure. Each 10. m (approximately 33 ft) of water exerts an additional pressure of 1 atm on the body. (a) What is the pressure on the body at a depth of 100. ft? (b) The partial pressure of nitrogen gas in air at 1 atm is 593 mm Hg. Assuming a SCUBA diver breathes compressed air, what is the partial pressure of nitrogen entering the lungs from a breathing tank at a depth of 100. ft? (c) The partial pressure of oxygen gas in the air at 2 atm is 158 mm Hg. What is the partial pressure of oxygen in the air in the lungs at a depth of 100. ft? (d) Why is it absolutely essential to exhale vigorously in a rapid ascent from a depth of 100. ft?arrow_forward
