Topic: Solid & Liquid

1. The intermolecular forces that are most significant in accounting for the high boiling point
of liquid water relative to other substances of similar molecular weight are the:
a) ion-ion attractions b) London dispersion forces
c) hydrogen bonding forces d) dipole-dipole attractions
2. Which of the following substances will have the highest boiling point?
a) methane (MW=16) b) butane (MW=58)
c) ethyl alcohol (MW=46) d) methyl alcohol (MW=32)
3. Which of the following substances will have the lowest boiling point?
a) neon b) water
c) ammonia d) helium
4. Identify the INCORRECT statement below:
a) When the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the surrounding pressure, the liquid boils.
b) The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the
surrounding pressure.
c) The normal boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals
1 atm.
d) The vapor pressure of a liquid increases as the temperature of the liquid increases.
e) Easily vaporized liquids are called volatile liquids, having low vapor pressures.
5. Calculate the heat required in Joules to convert 18.0 grams of water ice at a temperature of
-20° C to liquid water at the normal boiling point of water.
Given:
-specific heat of ice = 2.09 J/g°C -specific heat of liquid water = 4.184 J/g°C
-specific heat of water vapor = 2.03 J/g°C -molar heat of fusion of water = 6.02 kJ/mol
-molar heat of vaporization of water = 40.7 kJ/mol
a) 757 J b) 13626 J
c) 943 J d) 108360 J
6. Based on Coulomb’s law of interaction strength between ions, which of the following
compounds has the highest melting point?
a) CaCl2 b) NaCl
c) NaF
