Kinetic-Molecular Description of Liquids and Solids
Solids and liquids are condensed states. The atoms, ions, or molecules in solids and liquids are much closer to one another than in gases. Solids and liquids are highly incompressible. Liquids and gases are fluids. They easily flow. The intermolecular attractions in liquids and solids are strong.

Kinetic-Molecular Description of Liquids and Solids
If we compare the strengths of interactions among particles and the degree of ordering of particles, we see that Gases< Liquids < Solids Miscible liquids are soluble in each other. Examples of miscible liquids: Water dissolves in alcohol. Gasoline dissolves in motor oil. The natural diffusion rate of liquids is slower than gases
6
Kinetic-Molecular Description of Liquids and Solids
Immiscible liquids are insoluble in each other. Two examples of immiscible liquids: Water does not dissolve in oil. Water does not dissolve in cyclohexane.
7
Kinetic-Molecular Description of Liquids and Solids
Solid particles do not readily diffuse into other solids However, analysis of 2 different blocks of solids e.g. Cu and Pb that have been pressed together for a period of years show that each block contains some atoms of the other element solids do diffuse but very slowly and if pressure is applied. Fig. 13-2, p. 449

Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
Intermolecular forces (IMF) refer to the forces between individual particles (atoms, molecules, ions) of a substance These forces are quite weak relative to intramolecular forces i.e. covalent and ionic bonds within compounds If it were not for IMF, condensed phases would not exist IMF influence physical properties
9
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
The important intermolecular attractions from strongest attraction to the weakest attraction are: Ion-ion interactions (ionic bond) The force of attraction between 2 oppositely charged ions is directly proportional to the charges on the ions (say q+ and q-) F α q+ x q- Thus ionic substances containing multiple charged ions e.g. Mg2+, Al3+, etc. have stronger forces of attraction ( & thus higher m.p. and b.p.) than those with singly charged ions The force of attraction between 2 oppositely charged ions is also inversely proportional to the square distance b/w the ions F α 1/d2
10
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
Ion-ion interactions (ionic bond) So for a series of similarly charged ions, the closer approach of smaller ions results in stronger interionic attractive forces Higher m.p. and b.p Smaller the ions stronger the ionic bond higher m.p and b.p.
11
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
Example 1: Arrange the following ionic compounds in the expected order of increasing melting and boiling points. NaF, CaO, CaF2 You do it! What important points must you consider?
12
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
2. Dipole-dipole interactions Occur between polar covalent molecules because of the attraction of the δ+ and δ- atoms of another molecule
13
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
2. Dipole-dipole interactions e.g. BrF (polar molecule). Each polar molecule is shaded with regions of high e-s density (red) and regions of high positive charge (blue). Attractive forces are shown as blue arrows and repulsive forces as red arrows Molecules tend to arrange themselves to maximize attractions by bringing regions of opposite charge together while minimizing repulsions by separating regions of like charge
14
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
2. Dipole-dipole interactions An increase in temp increase in translational, rotational & vibrational motion of molecules random orientation of molecules relative to each other Consequently, dipole-dipole interactions become less important as temp All these factors make compounds having only dipole-dipole interactions more volatile than ionic compounds
15
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
3. London Forces are very weak. Also known as: Instantaneous dipole-induced dipole interactions Dispersion forces London dispersion forces They are the weakest of the intermolecular forces. They exist in ALL molecules This is the only attractive force in nonpolar molecules.
16
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
3. London Forces are very weak In a group of Ar atoms, the temporary dipole in one atom induces other atomic dipoles. Each atom’s e- cloud is attracted by the nucleus of the other atom or is repelled by the other atoms’ e-s cloud
17
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
Similar effects occur in a group of I2 molecules.
18
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
Polarizability increases with increasing numbers of e- and therefore with increasing sizes of molecules Therefore, dispersion forces are generally stronger for larger molecules For molecules that are large or quite polarizable the total effect of the dispersion forces can even be higher than dipole-dipole interactions or H-bonding
19
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
NOTE: The term “Van der Waals forces” usually refers to: Dipole - dipole interactions London forces
20
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
4. Hydrogen bonding They are NOT really chemical bonds Are a special case of a very strong dipole-dipole interaction. Criteria for strong H-bonding: A hydrogen bond donor: polar covalent molecule containing H attached to either one of the three small, highly electronegative elements – F, O or N. A hydrogen bond acceptor: highly electronegative elements – F, O or N.
21
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
4. Hydrogen bonding Consider H2O molecules Each O atom can form two H-bonds and Each H atom can form one H-bond δ+ δ- δ+ δ+ δ- δ+
22
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
Hydrogen bonding in (b) methanol, CH3 OH and (c) ammonia, NH3 The H-bonds are due to electrostatic attraction between the δ+ charged H of one molecule to the δ- charge O or N of another. Fig. 13-4, p. 452
23
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
4. Hydrogen bonding Typical H- bond energies range from 15 – 20kJ /mol This is four – five times greater than that of dipole-dipole interactions As a result, H-bonds exert a considerable influence on the properties of substances E.g. H-bonds are responsible for the unusually high b.p. and m.p. of water, methanol and ammonia
24
Intermolecular Attractions and Phase Changes
The unusually high bps of NH3, H2O and HF are due to H-bonding CH4 is non-polar only weak London forces As molecular mass increases (e.g Grp 4) bp increases because of increased dispersion forces. Boiling points of some hydrides as a function of molecular weight
25
So to summarize….. Type of substance
Intermolecular force present (strongest to weakest) ionic Ion- ion interaction polar Hydrogen bonding OR Permanent dipole- dipole Non-polar London/ Dispersion forces Note: ALL molecules contain dispersion forces
26
The Liquid State - Properties
Viscosity Viscosity is the resistance to flow. For example, compare how water pours out of a glass (low viscosity) compared to molasses, syrup or honey (high viscosity). Oil for your car is bought based on this property. 10W30 or 5W30 describes the viscosity of the oil at high and low temperatures.
27
The Liquid State - Properties
Viscosity For a liquid to flow, molecules must be able to slide past each other. The stronger the intermolecular forces (IM) the more viscous the liquid Substances that have a great ability to form H-bonds usually have high viscosities
28
The Liquid State - Properties
Viscosity Increasing the size and surface area of molecules increased viscosity due to increased dispersion forces Pentane, C2H5 Viscosity = centipoise at 25oC dodecane, C12H26 Viscosity = 1.38 centipoise at 25oC
29
The Liquid State - Properties
Viscosity As temp , molecules move more rapidly, their kinetic energies are able to overcome IM forces a decrease in viscosity An example of viscosity of two liquids.
30
The Liquid State - Properties
Surface Tension Molecules below the surface of a liquid are influenced by IM attractions from all directions Those on the surface are attracted unevenly; are only attracted toward the interior pulls the surface toward the center Surface tension is a measure of the unequal attractions that occur at the surface of a liquid. It is a measure of the forces that must be overcome to expand the surface area of a liquid
31
The Liquid State - Properties
Surface Tension Fig. 13-9, p. 457
32
The Liquid State - Properties
Surface Tension Coating glass with silicone polymer greatly reduces adhesion of water to the glass The left side of each glass has been treated with Rain-X which contains a silicone polymer. Water on the treated side forms droplets that are easily swept away. p. 457
33
The Liquid State - Properties
Droplets of mercury of glass The small droplets are almost spherical, whereas larger ones are flattened due to the effects of gravity This shows that surface tension has more influence on the shape of the small (lighter droplets) Surface Tension p. 457
34
The Liquid State Floating paper clip demonstration of surface tension.
35
The Liquid State Capillary Action
Capillary action is the ability of a liquid to rise (or fall) in a glass tube or other container
36
The Liquid State Cohesive forces are the forces that hold liquids together. Adhesive forces are the forces between a liquid and another surface. Capillary rise implies that the: Adhesive forces > cohesive forces Capillary fall implies that the: Cohesive forces > adhesive forces
37
Mercury exhibits a capillary fall.
The Liquid State Water exhibits a capillary rise. Mercury exhibits a capillary fall. Water Mercury
38
The Liquid State Capillary action also affects the meniscus of liquids. Capillary action helps plant roots take up water and dissolved nutrients from soil Roots, like glass, exhibit strong adhesive forces for water.
39
The Liquid State Evaporation
Evaporation is the process in which molecules escape from the surface of a liquid and become a gas. Evaporation is temperature dependent. Insert Fig Have it appear (wipe left) after the last sentence.
40
The Liquid State Evaporation
Liquid continuously evapourates from an open vessel Equilibrium between liquid and vapour is established in a closed container in which molecules return to the liquid at the same rate as they leave it. A bottle in which liquid-vapour equilibrium has been established. The droplets have condensed Fig ab, p. 458
41
The Liquid State Insert Fig Have it appear (wipe left) after the last sentence. Distribution of kinetic energies of molecules in a liquid at different temperatures. At the lower temperature, a smaller fraction of the molecules have the same energy required to escape from the liquid, so evapouration is slower.
42
The Liquid State Vapor Pressure
DEFINITION: Vapor pressure is the pressure exerted by a liquid’s vapour on its surface at equilibrium. Because rate of evapouration increases in increasing temperature Vapour pressure of liquids always increases with increasing temperature
43
The Liquid State Vapor Pressure (torr) and boiling point for three liquids at different temperatures. 0oC 20oC 30oC normal boiling point diethyl ether oC ethanol oC water oC Easily vapourized liquids are said to be volatile They have relatively high vapour pressures
44
What are the intermolecular forces in each of these compounds?
The Liquid State Vapor Pressure as a function of temperature. Notice that the plot is not linear Each substance exists as a liquid for temp & presure to the left of its curve Each substance exists as a gas for temp & pres to the right of its curve The normal boiling point of a liquid is the temp at which its vapour pressure = 1 atm (760 torr) What are the intermolecular forces in each of these compounds? You do it!
45
The Liquid State Vapor Pressure Stronger attractive forces
Lower vapour pressure Higher boiling point Increasing temperature Higher vapour pressure
46
Boiling Points and Distillation
The Liquid State Boiling Points and Distillation The boiling point is the temperature at which the liquid’s vapor pressure is equal to the applied pressure. The normal boiling point is the boiling point when the pressure is exactly 1 atm (760 torr). E.g. water boils at 100 0C at 1 atm If the applied pressure is lower than 1 atm, e.g. on a mountain water boils at a lower temp Takes longer to cook food on a mountain because the temp of boiling water is lower
47
The Liquid State Distillation
Distillation is a process in which a mixture or solution is separated into its components on the basis of the differences in boiling points of the components. Different liquids have different cohesive forces different vapour pressures boil at different temp Distillation is another vapour pressure phenomenon.
48
The Liquid State Lab setup for distillation
During distillation of an impure liquid, nonvolatile substances remain in the flask The liquid is vapourized and condensed before being collected in the receiving flask.
49
Heat Transfer Involving Liquids
The Liquid State Heat Transfer Involving Liquids The specific heat (J/g . oC) or molar heat capacity (J/mol . oC) of a liquid is the amount of heat that must be added to a stated mass of liquid to raise its temp by 1 oC with no change in phase It is given the symbol “C”
50
Heat Transfer Involving Liquid
The Liquid State Heat Transfer Involving Liquid Example : How much heat is released by 200. g of H2O as it cools from 85.0oC to 40.0oC? The specific heat of water is J/goC.
51
The Liquid State Molar heat capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one mole of a substance 1.00 oC. Example : The molar heat capacity of ethyl alcohol, C2H5OH, is 113 J/moloC. How much heat is required to raise the temperature of 125 g of ethyl alcohol from 20.0oC to 30.0oC? 1 mol C2H5OH = 46.0 g
52
The Liquid State Step 1: Find out how many mols of liquid you have since you were given molar heat capacity (mass/molar mass = mols) Step 2: Use heat equation to find out how the amount of heat needed. (q = mols x C x ∆T)
53
The Liquid State The calculations we have done up to now tell us the energy changes as long as the substance remains in a single phase. Next, we must address the energy associated with phase changes. For example, solid to liquid or liquid to gas and the reverse. Heat of Vaporization is the amount of heat required to change 1.00 g of a liquid substance to a gas at constant temperature. Heat of vaporization has units of J/g. Heat of Condensation is the reverse of heat of vaporization, phase change from gas to liquid.
54
Molar heat of vaporization or DHvap Molar heat of condensation
The Liquid State Molar heat of vaporization or DHvap The DHvap is the amount of heat required to change 1.00 mole of a liquid to a gas at constant temperature. DHvap has units of J/mol. Molar heat of condensation The reverse of molar heat of vaporization is the heat of condensation.
55
Heats of vapourization reflect the strengths of IM forces
Heats of vapourization generally increase as bp and IM forces increase Heats of vapourization generally increase as vapour pressure decrease Table 13-5, p. 462
56
Table 13-6, p. 465
57
At the molecular level what happens when a species boils?
The Liquid State Predict the order of increasing boiling points for the following: H2S, H2O, CH4, H2, KBr At the molecular level what happens when a species boils?
58
The Liquid State Boiling point increases as molecular mass increases
59
The Liquid State High bp of HF is due to the very polar H-F bond strong IM forces. As we go down group effect of molecular mass has greater influence on bp
60
The Liquid State Unusually high bp of water is due to H-bonding
61
Ar < C2H6 < AsH3 < NH3 < NaCl
The Liquid State Example: Arrange the following substances in order of increasing boiling points. C2H6, NH3, Ar, NaCl, AsH3 You do it! Ar < C2H6 < AsH3 < NH3 < NaCl nonpolar nonpolar polar very polar ionic London London dipole-dipole H-bonding ion-ion
62
The Liquid State Example : How many joules of energy must be absorbed by 500 g of H2O at 50.0oC to convert it to steam at 120oC? The molar heat of vaporization of water is 40.7 kJ/mol and the molar heat capacities of liquid water and steam are 75.3 J/mol oC and 36.4 J/mol oC, respectively.
63
The Liquid State Problem-Solving Tip:
A problem such as this can be broken down into steps so that each involves either a temperature change or a phase change, but not both. A temperature change uses specific heat of the substance; remember that each different phase has its own specific heat. A phase change always takes place with no change in temperature, so that the calculation does not involve temperature.
64
The Liquid State Next, let’s calculate the energy required to boil the water. Finally, let’s calculate the heat required to heat steam from 100 to 120oC.
65
The Liquid State The total amount of energy for this process is the sum of the 3 pieces we have calculated.
66
The Solid State Normal Melting Point
The normal melting point (freezing point) is the temperature at which the solid melts (liquid and solid in equilibrium) at exactly 1.00 atm of pressure. The melting point increases as the strength of the intermolecular attractions increase. Solid Liquid melting freezing
67
The Solid State As heat is added to a solid, the temperature rises.
After enough heat is added to bring solid to its mp, additional heat is used to break IM forces to bring solid to liquid During the melting process the temperature remains constant After melting any additional heat increases the temperature of the liquid until boiling is reached. A typical heating curve at constant pressure
68
The Solid State During any phase change, Gas Liquid and Solid Liquid
the temperature remains constant
69
Heat Transfer Involving Solids
Heat of Fusion Heat of fusion is the amount of heat required to melt one gram of a solid at its melting point at constant temperature. Heat of crystallization is the reverse of the heat of fusion.
70
Heat Transfer Involving Solids
Molar heat of fusion or Hfusion The molar heat of fusion is the amount of heat required to melt a mole of a substance at its melting point. The molar heat of crystallization is the reverse of molar heat of fusion
71
The Solid State The length of the horizontal line for melting is proportional to the heat of fusion for the solid – higher the Hfus the longer the line The horizontal line representing when a liquid boils is usually longer than the horizontal line for when a solid melts because the Hvap of a substance is usually higher that that of Hfus A typical heating curve at constant pressure
72
Heat Transfer Involving Solids
Heat ( or enthalpy) of solidification Heat ( or enthalpy) of solidification of a liquid is equal in magnitude to Hfusion It represents removal of sufficient heat from a given amount (1 mol or 1 g) of liquid to solidify the liquid at its freezing point Here is a summary of the heats of transformation for water. water ice steam water
73
Heat Transfer Involving Solids
Example : Calculate the amount of heat required to convert g of ice at -10.0oC to water at 40.0oC. specific heat of ice is 2.09 J/goC heat of fusion of ice = 334J/g specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g. oC you do it
74
Heat Transfer Involving Solids
Note that most of the heat absorbed was to melt the ice.
75
Sublimation and the Vapor Pressure of Solids
In the sublimation process the solid transforms directly to the vapor phase without passing through the liquid phase. Solid CO2 or “dry” ice does this well. Solids exhibit vapour pressures like liquids but generally much lower vapour pressures Solids with very high vapour pressures sublime easily deposition
76
Sublimation and the Vapor Pressure of Solids
Sublimation can be used to purify volatile solids The high vapour pressure of the solid causes it to sublime when heated Crystals of the purified substance are formed when the vapour is cooled. I2 (Iodine) sublimes readily; I2 vapour is purple
77
Phase Diagrams (P versus T)
Phase diagrams are a convenient way to display all of the different phase transitions of a substance. Show the equilibrium pressure-temperature relationships among different phase in a closed system This is the phase diagram for water.
78
Phase Diagrams (P versus T)
AC: represent pressure-temp combinations for which liquid and gas coexist. Points above AC liquid Points below AC gas AB: represent liquid-solid equilibrium conditions Has a –ve slope because of unique property of water solid is less dense than water Points to left of AB ice Points to right of AB liquid. AB is called a melting curve
79
Phase Diagrams (P versus T)
AD: sublimation curve Solid and vapour in equilbrium A: triple point combinations of pressure & temp for which all 3 phases coexist. For water this is 4.58 torr and 0.01oC
80
Phase Diagrams (P versus T)
Compare water’s phase diagram to carbon dioxide’s phase diagram. Note the +ve slope of AB TC: critical temp temp above which a gas cannot be liquified gas and liquid do not coexist A substance above this temp is called a supercritical fluid PC: critical pressure pressure required to liquefy a gas at it critical temp. PC TC
81
Amorphous Solids and Crystalline Solids
Amorphous solids do not have a well ordered molecular structure. Examples of amorphous solids include waxes, glasses, asphalt. Melting occurs over a range of temperatures for various portions of the sample as IM forces are overcome Crystalline solids have well defined structures that consist of extended array of repeating units called unit cells. Exhibit sharp melting points The shattering of crystalline solids produces fragments having the same (or related) interfacial angles and structural characteristic of the original sample
82
Structure of Crystals Unit cells are the smallest repeating unit of a crystal. As an analogy, bricks are repeating units for buildings. There are seven basic crystal systems.
83
Fig , p. 475
84
Structure of Crystals Different substances that crystallize in the same type of lattice with the same atomic arrangement are said to be isomorphous. A single substance that can crystallize in more than one arrangement is said to be polymorphous
85
Structure of Crystals We shall look at the three variations of the cubic crystal system. Simple cubic unit cells. The balls represent the positions of atoms, ions, or molecules in a simple cubic unit cell.
86
Structure of Crystals In a simple cubic unit cell each atom, ion, or molecule at a corner is shared by 8 unit cells Thus 1 unit cell contains 8(1/8) = 1 atom, ion, or molecule.
87
Structure of Crystals Body centered cubic (bcc) has an additional atom, ion, or molecule in the center of the unit cell. On a body centered cubic unit cell there are 8 corners + 1 particle in center of cell. 1 bcc unit cell contains 8(1/8) + 1 = 2 particles.
88
Structure of Crystals A face centered cubic (fcc) unit cell has a cubic unit cell structure with an extra atom, ion, or molecule in each face. A face centered cubic unit cell has 8 corners and 6 faces. 1 fcc unit cell contains 8(1/8) + 6(1/2) = 4 particles.
89
Bonding in Solids We classify solids according to types of particles and bonding interactions. There are 4 categories: Metallic solids Ionic solids Simple Molecular solids Giant Covalent solids
90
Bonding in Solids Metallic Solids may be thought of as positively charged nuclei surrounded by a sea of electrons. The positive ions occupy the crystal lattice positions. Examples of metallic solids include: Na, Li, Au, Ag, …….. Nearly all metals crystallize in one of three types of lattices: Body-centered cubic (bcc) Face-centered cubic (fcc) also called cubic closed packed Hexagonal close-packed
91
Bonding in Solids Spheres in same plane closely packed as possible. Each sphere touches 6 others Spheres in 2 planes. Each sphere touches 6 others in its own layer and 3 in the layer below it, and 3 in the layer above it. Each sphere contacts 12 others therefore has a coordination number of 12.
92
Expanded view of hexagonal close-packed
Expanded view of hexagonal close-packed. 1st and 3rd layers are oriented in the same direction Expanded view of cubic close-packed. 1st and 3rd layers are oriented in opposite direction
93
Bonding in Solids Ionic Solids have ions that occupy the positions in the unit cell. Examples of ionic solids include: CsCl, NaCl, ZnS
94
Bonding in Solids CsCl is a simple cubic. It is NOT body-centered, because the point at the center of the cell is not the same as the point at a corner NaCl is a face-centered cubic ZnS is a face-centered cubic
95
Bonding in Solids Representations of the crystal structure of NaCl
Na is grey and Cl is green Ionic solids are usually poor thermal and electrical conductors In liquid (molten) state however, they are excellent electrical conductors because their ions are mobile Fig , p. 482
96
Bonding in Solids Molecular Solids have molecules in each of the positions of the unit cell. Molecular solids have low melting points, are volatile, and are electrical insulators. Examples of molecular solids include: water, sugar, carbon dioxide, benzene
97
Bonding in Solids The packing arrangement in molecular crystals depend on the shape of the molecule as well as on electrostatic attractions b/w +ve and –ve regions in the molecule. (a) Solid carbon dioxide (b) benzene, C6H6
98
Bonding in Solids Covalent Solids can be considered giant molecules that have covalently bonded atoms in an extended, rigid crystalline network Some examples of covalent solids are: Diamond, graphite, SiO2 (sand), SiC
99
(a) In diamond each C atoms is tetrahedrally bonded to 4 other atoms through sp3- sp3 σ bonds
(b) In graphite, C atoms are linked in planes by sp2-sp2 σ and π bonds. The crystal is soft owing to the weak attractions b/w planes. Electrons move freely through the delocalized π bonding network in these planes but they do not jump b/w planes readily. (c) Quartz (SiO2): Each Si atom (gray) is bonded tetrahedrally to 4 O atoms (red). Fig , p. 485

105
Band Theory of Metals Sodium’s 3s orbitals can interact to produce overlapping orbitals Electrical conductivity is due to the ability of any highest energy e-s in the “3s” band to jump to a slightly higher-energy vacant orbital in the same band
106
Band Theory of Metals The 3s orbitals can also overlap with unfilled 3p orbitals This type of overlap becomes more important with Group II metals e.g. Mg’s 3s is filled with 2 e-s, thus without this overlap, the “3s” band in a Mg crystal would be filled
107
Band Theory of Metals Insulators have a large gap between the s and p bands. Gap is called the forbidden zone. Semiconductors have a small gap between the bands.
108
Band Theory of Metals Metals are also good conductors of heat
They can absorb heat as e-s become thermally excited to low-lying vacant orbitals in the conduction band The reverse process accompanies the release of heat. Metals have a lustrous appearance Mobile e-s can absorb a wide range of wavelengths of radiant energy as they jump to higher energy levels They emit photons of light and fall back to lower levels with the conduction band
109
Metals are also malleable or ductile
In a metal, the +ve charged metal ions are immersed in a delocalized sea of e-s. When the metal is distorted, the environment around the metal is essentially unchanged; there are no new repulsive forces By contrast, when an ionic crystal is subjected to a force that causes it to slip along a plane, the increased repulsive forces b/w like charges causes the crystal to break along a plane.
