The document summarizes key concepts about the kinetic molecular model of liquids and solids and intermolecular forces. It discusses (1) the different types of intermolecular forces including dispersion forces, dipole-dipole forces, and hydrogen bonding and how they relate to properties like boiling point and viscosity. (2) Properties of liquids that result from these intermolecular forces, such as surface tension, capillary action, and vapor pressure. (3) How intermolecular forces determine whether solids are crystalline or amorphous and influence their melting behaviors.

Kinetic Molecular Model of Properties of Liquids and
Liquids and Solids Intermolecular Forces
The different types of intermolecular forces are Surface tension the following: is the measure of the elastic force in the surface of a liquid. It is the amount of energy required Dispersion forces – these forces of to stretch or increase the surface of a liquid by a attraction result from temporary dipole unit area. moments induced in ordinarily nonpolar molecules. These forces are present between all Molecules within a liquid are pulled in types of molecules due to the movement of all directions by intermolecular forces. electrons. Capillary action Thus, dispersion forces may be the is the tendency of a liquid to rise in narrow weakest of intermolecular forces that can exist tubes or be drawn into small openings such as between two molecules, but the larger the those between grains of a rock. Capillary action, atoms present, the stronger the dispersion also known as capillarity, is a result of forces. intermolecular attraction between the liquid and solid materials. Dipole-dipole forces - are attractive forces between polar molecules (molecules that A thin film of water adheres to the wall possess dipole moments). In polar molecules of the glass tube as water molecules are the electrons are unevenly distributed because attracted to atoms making up the glass (SiO2). some elements are more electronegative than Surface tension causes the film of water to others. The partial negative side of one contract and pulls the water up the tube. molecule is attracted to the partial positive side Two types of forces are involved in capillary of another molecule. action: This type of force is stronger than the dispersion forces because polar molecules have Cohesion is the intermolecular attraction a permanent uneven distribution of electrons. between like molecules (the liquid molecules).
Hydrogen bond is a special type of dipole- Adhesion is an attraction between unlike

Hydrogen Convex Meniscus: When cohesion forces are bonds between water molecules are particularly greater than the adhesion forces of the liquid. strong. Ex: Mercury in a container

The greater the viscosity, the slower the measure of the strength of intermolecular liquid flows. forces in a liquid. If the intermolecular attraction is strong, it takes a lot of energy to free the The stronger its intermolecular forces, molecules from the liquid phase and the heat of the greater resistance to flow. vaporization will be high.

The boiling point is related to molar heat of vaporization: the higher ΔHvap , the The equilibrium vapor pressure is the higher the boiling point. maximum vapor pressure of a liquid at a given temperature and that it is constant at a constant The Unique Properties of Water temperature. 1. Water is a good solvent. Vapor pressure is independent of the its ability to dissolve a large amount of liquid as well as the surface area of variety of chemical substances the liquid in contact with the gas. 2.

Intermolecular Forces of Amorphous solids soften gradually
when they are heated. They tend to melt over a Liquids and Solids; Solids and wide range of temperature. This behavior is a their Properties result of the variation in the arrangement of particles in their structures, causing some parts Solids can be categorized into two of the solid to melt ahead of other parts. groups: the crystalline solids and the amorphous solids. The differences in properties The Four Types of Crystals of these two groups of solids arise from the presence or absence of long range order of METALLIC CRYSTALS arrangements of the particles in the solid. -its unit particles are atoms Crystalline solids are arranged in fixed -the forces between particles is metallic bonds geometric patterns or lattices. Examples of -soft to very hard, low to very high melting crystalline solids are ice and sodium chloride point, excellent thermal and electrical (NaCl), copper sulfate (CuSO4), diamond, conduction, malleable and ductile. graphite, and sugar (C12H22O11). Example: All metallic elements – for example, Cu, Fe, Al, and Pt. The ordered arrangement of their units maximizes the space they occupy and are IONIC CRYSTALS essentially incompressible. -its unit particles are cations and anions -the forces between particles is electrostatic Amorphous solids have a random attractions orientation of particles. Examples of amorphous -hard and brittle, high melting point, poor solids are glass, plastic, coal, and rubber. thermal and electrical conduction They are considered super-cooled Example: Typical salts – for example, NaCl, liquids where molecules are arranged in a Ca(NO3)2 random manner similar to the liquid state.
