Solid
-particles are very close together
-in a regular pattern=crystalline
-no pattern=amorphous
-definite shape and volume
-fixed shape=does not conform to container=particles don’t move around
Liquid
-more dense than solid
-particles close together
-definite volume
-no definite shape (conforms to a container)
-fills the container only to the volume of liquid present
Gas
-particles are separated over a broad area
-no definite shape or volume (They expand to fill any space)
-conforms to container and fills the entire container
-can undergo changes in pressure=compressible
*smaller container=greater pressure
*larger container=less pressure
Solid-energy
-mostly energies if attraction
-more attraction = less kinetic energy
-stringer attractive forces between particles
Gas-energy
-mostly kinetic energy
-less attraction = more kinetic energy
-energy of motion = particles move around and do not stick together
-lower boiling point
Liquid-energy
-kinetic energy and energy of attraction = particles move around but remain touching
Types of Intermolecular Forces
Intra molecular = bonding forces within a molecule or compound
Inter molecular = non-bonding forces (weak forces between molecules)
Intramolecular forces
-Intra = strong bonds within
-bonding forces within a molecule to compound
-relatively string between molecules
-larger charges/closer together
-ionic bonds = +/- ions holding each other together
-covalent bonds = shared bonding
Intermolecular forces
-non-bonding forces = can be disrupted without chemical change
- weak forces between molecules
-smaller charges = further apart
-examples =
hydrogen bonds (strongest) “of the weak”
dipole-dipole
London dispersion forces =
van der waals =refers to both dipole and dispersion forces

*Boiling points increase?
Going down the periodic table
Dispersion (london) forces
-everything has it
-temporary/momentary fluctuations in electron charge = produce instant dipoles/one side negative for a split second
-only attractive forces in non-polar compounds
-present in even non-bonding forces
-increase with number of electrons
-larger molecules have more a attraction to each other =higher boiling and melting points
-electrons “stack up” to one side = it takes more energy to take them out of their phase
Linear (small) molecule
-fewer dispersion forces
Linear (large) molecule
-more dispersion forces
Spherical molecule
-fewer dispersion forces than a linear molecule of the same size
Polar molecules and Dipole-Dipole forces
-exist in all polar molecules
-electron density is not even across molecule = creates positive/negative ends
-attract each other and stay together
-causes polar compounds to have higher melting/boiling points than non-polar compounds
*also, to not mix with non-polar compounds
-similar forces = ion-dipoles and dispersion-dipole (mix of both)
*ion-dipole is the strongest Intermolecular force
-polarizability = ability of a molecule to become polarized
Hydrogen Bond
-especially strong
*dipole-dipole = +/- side intermolecular force
-a hydrogen bond may occur when an H atom in a molecule, bound to a small, highly electronegative atom with lone pairs of electrons, is attracted to the lone pairs in another molecule
*the elements N2, O2, and F2 are strong but small and are extremely electronegative
-One element is the hydrogen bond acceptor and one element is the hydrogen bond donor
Formal dipoles?
=permanent dipole
The molecular basis of surface tension
-surface tension does not work for non-polar, and does not respond to charge
-hydrogen bonding occurs across the surface and below the surface *like a “skin layer” on top of the H2O
-Hydrogen bonding/attraction occurs in three dimensions
-The net vector for attractive forces is downward
-surface tension = the energy required to increase the surface area of a liquid by amount —> very high for water
-surface tension works for polar liquids = water
-surface tension does not work for non-polar liquids = hexane
Viscosity?
= the resistance of a liquid to flow
Viscous liquids?

syrup
*number on motor oil increase with viscosity
Viscosity Info
-unit = poise (P) or kg/m:s
-increases with:
Intermolecular forces
2)longer molecules that become engaged (e.g. certain petroleum fractions)
-decreases as temperatures increase *think of hot vs. Cold pancake syrup and the difference in flow of each
Capillary action?
= ability of liquid to flow up a narrow tube
-seen in:
taking blood samples
liquid going up a straw on its own
the meniscus of a graduated cylinder or test tube
Capillary action is due to?
-due to:
Cohesive forces, the intermolecular attractive forces
Adhesive forces, between the molecules and the tube
*cohesive forces greater than adhesive: convex (rainbow) meniscus effect (as in mercury)
*adhesive forces greater than cohesive: concave (bowl) meniscus effect (as in water)
Vapor pressure as a function of temp and intermolecular forces
-boiling point (external pressure = vapor pressure)
Vapor pressure
-higher the temperature = higher the vapor pressure
-molecules move faster
-more molecules escape from liquid phase than return
-vapor pressure increases
-weaker intermolecular forces result in high vapor pressure at any given temperature
-vapor pressure = external pressure —>boiling=bubbles of gaseous molecules form in the liquid
-at BP: heat energy is used to overcome attractive, intermolecular forces to go from liquid —>gas phase
Vaporization
-all molecules move with thermal energy
-some break free from surface of liquid to enter Vapor phase
*happens more in volatile liquids (tends to be less polar; you can often smell the Vapor)
-increases with:
increasing temperature
increasing surface area
decreasing intermolecular forces
Energetics of vaporization
-vaporization = endothermic (heat enters/absorbed)
*water evaporating cools the skin
*means condensation is exothermic (heat exits/released)
-heart of vaporization is (triangle H vap) *ALWAYS POSITIVE
*condensation energy = (negative triangle H vap)
Vapor pressure
-dynamic equilibrium between liquid and gas phase molecules
-vapor pressure = pressure of this gas
* for small amount, has more effect in a closed container
-Obeys, dynamic equilibrium rules
*if you increase the volume, the Vapor pressure decreases
(Boules gas law)
*when pressure decreases, more liquid vaporises (response to equilibrium aka La Chatelier’s principle)
-reverse situation —> more gas condenses
-at boiling point, vapor pressure = extreme pressure
*”normal boiling point” defined where Vapor pressure = 1 atm
*higher altitudes = lower external pressure —> lower BP
Sublimation?

Sublimation reversed?
=Deposition
Opposite of frozen?
=melting (fusion)
-phase change from solid to liquid
Opposite of fusion (melting)?

–temperature on x axis, pressure on y axis
-solid-liquid, liquid-gas, solid-gas curves
-increase in pressure —> transition to lowest volume
Phase diagrams: Critical point?
-density of liquid and Vapor are equal at Tc and pc
-difference between liquid and Vapor disappears
-above this point, a “supercritical fluid” exists (mixed gas and liquid properties)
Phase diagrams: Triple point?
-3 phase transition point
-equilibrium between the 3 phases
-at its triple point, CO2 sublimes and deposits, melts and freezes, Vapor sizes and condenses at the same time

=high ability to conduct heat —> “cold” when you touch it at room temp; hot if it has been in the sun
=bendable
=“malleable/ductile” properties occur because atoms can slide past each other
*it does not have high heat capacity but can pass it to you fast (seat belt buckle example)

= “solvent” largest proportion of mixture
= “solute” metal present in smaller proportion
Types of Alloys?
substitutional: solute atoms substitute in the lattice of the solvent atom
*works best for atoms with similar sizes/properties
interstitial: solute atoms fit in holes between solvent atoms
*need to be small
*solute is often a non-metal (bonding has covalent character) - carbon steel
heterogeneous: not mixed uniformly (you can see clusters of each thing under the microscope)
*two phases
intermetallic: really a true compound instead of mixture
*composition cannot vary; atoms in definite order
*can write a chemical formula

Solutions: general properties of solutions?
-most chemical reactions take place in solution
Solution?
=homogenous or uniform mixture of two or more substances
Solute vs Solvent
Solute= the substance in the mixture with less quantity
Solvent= the substance present with more quantity
Solutions can be?
=liquids, solids, and gases
Example of liquid solution?
Sugar water = sugar dissolved in water
*H20 = solvent (more amount)
*Sugar = solute (less amount)
Example of solid solution?
Metal alloys = brass
*brass = homogeneous mixture of copper and zinc
Example of gas solution?
Gas solutions = air
*air = series of gases (including O2, H2, CO2) dissolved in nitrogen gas, N2
-nitrogen=solvent (air solution)/(more amount)
-other gases=solutes (less amount)
General properties of liquid solutions
aqueous
true solution
Aqueous solution?
=clear/coloured but transparent (think stain glass)
-solution where the solvent (most amount) is water
-clear/transparent without visible particulates of solute
-colourless or coloured, depending in on solvent and solute
True solution?
=no solids
-homogeneous with uniform properties
-solute cannot be isolated by filtration (solids that are not water soluble leave stuff behind)
-no “settling-out” of particles
-particles are individual molecules in continuous random motions (separate)
Volumes of solvent and solute are not additive:
-1 litre H20 + 1 litre is <greater than 2 litres
-dependent on how molecules “fit” together
-attractive and repulsive forces (hydrogen bonds) (marble and beads in a beaker example)
*liquids are ALWAYS in motion
Electrolytes in aqueous solution?
=electrolyte —> conducts electricity *needs dissolves ions
Strong electrolytes?
=strong acid list
-solvable ionic compounds =alkali earth metals
-string acids and bases (break apart into ions)
*dissolve vs disassociate
Weak electrolytes?
=weak acids and bases (only a few of the molecules break apart into ions)
Non-electrolytes?
=insoluble ionic compounds
=molecular compounds (covalent)
-does not make ions
-no conductivity
Solubility?
=often relative (only so much is there to dissolve)
-how much solute can dissolve in a solvent (usually mol/L)
(L = molarity)
-not an “either or” situation; it is relative
-“miscible” = able to completely dissolve/mix
*imiscible = not able to completely dissolve/mix
Factors that affect solubility?
=polarity of solute and solvent
-the more spent and solute are different, the less soluble they are
-“like dissolves like” or polar dissolves polar
=temperature
-increase in temp usually increase’s solubility/dissolvable
*example = sugar dissolves better in HOT water vs cold which increases solubility
Factors that affect solubility?
=pressure
-high effect on gas, little effect on liquid or solids
-for gas solutes (less amount) increased pressure of gas increases solubility
*gases = solvable when COLD
-solubility of gas in liquid is directly proportional to pressure
-carbonates sodas contain CO2 = bubbles of gas
Factors that affect solubility?
=entropy: disorder (it is favourable to mix things/stir things)
=intermolecular forces: solute/solvent must “like” each other more than themselves
-solvent/solute interactions must be equal or greater than solvent/solvent interactions vice versa
Solubility and Saturation
Saturated solution = dissolved as much as you can get
-maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at a PARTICULAR TEMPERATURE
Cooling solution = 1) decreases in solubility 2) precipitate of excess solute
Unsaturated solution?
=could still dissolve more solute (more to “mix”)
Supersaturated solution? (NOT VERY COMMON)
=unstable situation
=contains more solute than can be dissolved at that temperature
=excess solute will precipitate —> saturated solution + precipitate
(Solution with the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve at that temperature + precipitate)
*solutions involve DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM BETWEEN DISSOLVED AND UNDISSOLVED PARTICLES
Solubility and equilibrium?
=a saturated solution is an example of a dynamic equilibrium
-dissolution (dissolving of the solute) and precipitation (undissolving of the solute) proceed at the same rate
*as many molecules dissolve as they also precipitate
-saturated solution is a solution that is in equilibrium with the undissolved solute
-crystallisation (lower temperature, supersaturation) a “seed crystal” is introduced; more solute goes into the undissolved state, and does not return to the solution
Supersaturated solution?
= and example of supersaturated solution is sodium, acetate crystallising from a supersaturated solution
-Undissolved and dissolved solute is in equilibrium: slowly, cool, saturated solution, forms, supersaturated, solution, small disturbance (seed, Crystal, scratching the flask) results in crystallisation
Concentration of solutions?
= amount of solute dissolved in a given amount of solution
Math = concentration equals the amount of solute divided by the amount of solution
Molarity?
= molarity equals moles of solute divided by litres of solution
Concentration of a solution?
=all concentration units are fractions
-Numerator indicates the quantity of the solute
-Denominator indicates the quantity of either the solution or the solvent
-They differ in the units used to express these two quantities
Molarity?
Molarity = moles of Solute divided by volume of solution (mol/L)
* ratio of quantity of solute, to quantity of solution
Mole fraction?
mole fraction= Moles of solute divided by
(moles of solute + moles of solvent)
Concentration of a solution: two
Molarity = moles of solute divided by mass of solvent in kilograms (mol/Kg)
* ratio of quantity of solute to quantity of solvent
mass percent = (grams of solute divided by grams of solution) times 100
*end Unit is Percent
