12 – STEM Pope Adrian Assignment #1 Chemistry

1. What does enthalpy change and how it is related to phase change?

Enthalpy is the amount of heat of a system and heat is the key in the process of
phase change. Its molecules needed to break out to its original position so the phase
change can occur.

2. What happens to the temperature of a substance during phase change? (elaborate your
answer)

The temperature will remain constant. It depends on the energy of the substance
whether it will lose energy or add more energy. Losing energy makes the molecules
escape so the heat energy will occur, resulting that the temperature will remain
constant.

3. Differentiate boiling point and normal boiling point of a liquid and how these
temperatures affect the condition of the liquid?

Boiling point is defining the amount of the vapor pressure that is equal to the gas
above it while the normal boiling point is the temperature which is equal to one
atmosphere.

4. What is the effect of critical temperature in relation to the property of gas and liquid
phases? (explain)

A critical temperature can’t be liquefied with the application of any pressure. In

gas phase it is difficult to liquefy because of the amount of energy in the molecules.
While in liquid phase it will automatically transform into a water vapor.

5. What will happen to the motion energies of molecules of substances at critical

temperature? (Cite example)

The motion of the molecules will move faster due to the critical temperature. It
will occupy the entire space available in the surface. One of the example is the water.

6. What will happen if you add more heat energy to liquid water at 100 degree Celsius?
(elaborate your answer)

If you add more heat energy in the water, everything will remain even the
temperature because the water will undergo the process of vaporization.
