Which liquid has a higher boiling point, water or aldehyde?

Water has a higher boiling point due to stronger intramolecular forces.

2
New cards

What determines the volatility of a liquid?

Volatility is determined by the strength of the bonds; weaker bonds allow easier gas formation.

3
New cards

Which liquid is more volatile, water or aldehyde?

Aldehyde is more volatile because it has weaker bonds.

4
New cards

Which liquid has a higher surface tension, water or aldehyde?

Water has a higher surface tension due to stronger intermolecular forces.
