States of Matter
 The fundamental
difference between states
of matter is the strength of
the intermolecular forces
of attraction.
 Stronger forces bring
molecules closer together.
 Solids and liquids are
referred to as the
condensed phases.

Differences in the
States of Matter

Intermolecular
Forces

Which State of Matter?
• The answer to this
question largely
relies on the
 balance between the
kinetic energies of
the particles.
 interparticle energies
of attraction.

Intermolecular
Forces

Intermolecular Forces

• The attractions between molecules are not nearly as


strong as the intramolecular attractions (bonds) that
hold compounds together.
• Many physical properties reflect intermolecular
forces, like boiling points, melting points, viscosity,
surface tension, and capillary action. Intermolecular
Forces

Types of Intermolecular Force
• Weakest to strongest forces:
 dispersion forces (or London dispersion
forces)
 dipole–dipole forces
 hydrogen bonding (a special dipole–dipole
force)
 ion–dipole forces
o Note: The first two types are also referred
to collectively as van der Waals forces.

Dispersion Forces
• The figure below shows how a nonpolar particle
(in this case a helium atom) can be temporarily
polarized to allow dispersion force to form.
• The tendency of an electron cloud to distort is
called its polarizability.

Intermolecular
Forces

Factors Which Affect Amount of
Dispersion Force in a Molecule
• number of electrons in
an atom (more electrons,
more dispersion force)
• size of atom or
molecule/molecular
weight
• shape of molecules with
similar masses (more
compact, less dispersion
force) Intermolecular
Forces

Polarizability & Boiling Point
• If something is easier
to polarize, it has a
lower boiling point.
• Remember: This
means less
intermolecular force
(smaller molecule:
lower molecular
weight, fewer
electrons). Intermolecular
Forces

Dipole–Dipole Interactions
• Polar molecules have a more positive
and a more negative end–a dipole (two
poles, δ+ and δ−).
• The oppositely charged ends attract
each other.

Intermolecular
Forces

Dipole–Dipole Interactions

For molecules of approximately equal mass


and size, the more polar the molecule, the
higher its boiling point. Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Which Have a Greater Effect:
Dipole–Dipole Interactions or
Dispersion Forces?
• If two molecules are of comparable size
and shape, dipole–dipole interactions
will likely be the dominating force.
• If one molecule is much larger than
another, dispersion forces will likely
determine its physical properties.

Forces

What Does This Graph Show Us?
• In a group, the period
3/4/5 elements have
higher boiling points
as the group member
gets larger.
• What happens with
the period 2
elements? For group
4A, the trend is
continued. What about
for the other groups? Intermolecular
Forces

Hydrogen Bonding
• The dipole–dipole interactions
experienced when H is
bonded to N, O, or F are
unusually strong.
• We call these interactions
hydrogen bonds.
• A hydrogen bond is an
attraction between a hydrogen
atom attached to a highly
electronegative atom and a
nearby small electronegative
atom in another molecule or Intermolecular
chemical group. Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


What Forms Hydrogen Bonds?
• Hydrogen bonding arises in part from the
high electronegativity of nitrogen, oxygen,
and fluorine.
• These atoms interact with a nearly bare
nucleus (which contains one proton).

Intermolecular
Forces

Ion–Dipole Interactions
• Ion–dipole interactions are found in solutions of ions.
• The strength of these forces is what makes it
possible for ionic substances to dissolve in polar
solvents.

Summarizing Intermolecular Forces

Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Liquid Properties Affected by
Intermolecular Forces
• boiling point (previously discussed) and
melting point
• viscosity
• surface tension
• capillary action

Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Viscosity
• Resistance of a liquid to flow is called
viscosity.
• It is related to the ease with which
molecules can move past each other.
• Viscosity increases with stronger
intermolecular forces and decreases
with higher temperature.

Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Surface Tension
• Water acts as if it
has a “skin” on it
due to extra inward
forces on its
surface. Those
forces are called the
surface tension.

Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Cohesion and Adhesion
• Intermolecular forces that bind similar
molecules to one another are called
cohesive forces.
• Intermolecular forces that bind a
substance to a surface are called
adhesive forces.
• These forces are important in capillary
action.
Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Capillary Action
• The rise of liquids up
narrow tubes is called
capillary action.
• Adhesive forces attract
the liquid to the wall of
the tube.
• Cohesive forces attract
the liquid to itself.
• Water has stronger
adhesive forces with glass;
mercury has stronger
cohesive forces with itself. Intermolecular
Forces

Phase Changes
• Conversion from one
state of matter to
another is called a
phase change.
• Energy is either added
or released in a phase
change.
• Phase changes:
melting/freezing,
vaporizing/condensing,
subliming/depositing.
Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Energy Change & Change of State
• The heat of fusion is the energy required to change
a solid at its melting point to a liquid.
• The heat of vaporization is the energy required to
change a liquid at its boiling point to a gas.
• The heat of sublimation is the energy required to
change a solid directly to a gas.

Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Heating Curves
• A plot of temperature vs.
heat added is called a
heating curve.
• Within a phase, heat is
the product of specific
heat, sample mass, and
temperature change.
• The temperature of the
substance does not rise
during a phase change.
• For the phase changes, the product of mass Intermolecular

and the heat of fusion of vaporization is heat. Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Supercritical Fluids
• Gases liquefies when
pressure is applied.
• The temperature beyond
which a gas cannot be
compressed is called its
critical temperature.
The pressure needed to
compress the liquid at
critical temperature is
called critical pressure.
• The state beyond this
temperature is called a Intermolecular
supercritical fluid. Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Vapor Pressure
• At any temperature,
some liquid molecules
have enough energy to
escape the surface and
become a gas.
• As the temperature
rises, the fraction of
molecules that have
enough energy to break
free increases.

Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Vapor Pressure
• As more molecules
escape the liquid,
the pressure they
exert increases.
• The liquid and vapor
reach a state of
dynamic equilibrium:
liquid molecules
evaporate and vapor
molecules condense
at the same rate.
Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Vapor Pressure
• The boiling point of
a liquid is the
temperature at which
its vapor pressure
equals atmospheric
pressure.
• The normal boiling
point is the
temperature at which
its vapor pressure is
760 torr.
Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.


Vapor Pressure
• The natural log of the
vapor pressure of a liquid
is inversely proportional to
its temperature.
• This relationship is
quantified in the
Clausius–Clapeyron
equation.

Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

dichloromethane given the vapor pressure vs.
temperature data

the inverse of the absolute temperature and
natural log of the vapor pressure

Clausius–Clapeyron Equation
2-Point Form
• The equation below can be used with just two
measurements of vapor pressure and temperature
– however, it generally gives less precise results
• fewer data points will not give as precise an average because there is
less averaging out of the errors
o as with any other sets of measurements
• It can also be used to predict the vapor pressure if you
know the heat of vaporization and the normal boiling point
– remember: the vapor pressure at the normal boiling point is 760
torr

Molecular Inc. Approach, 2/e 34
Supercritical Fluid
• As a liquid is heated in a sealed container, more vapor
collects, causing the pressure inside the container to rise
– and the density of the vapor to increase
– and the density of the liquid to decrease
• At some temperature, the meniscus between the liquid and
vapor disappears and the states commingle to form a
supercritical fluid
• Supercritical fluids have properties of both gas and liquid
states

Intermolecular
Forces

© 2015 PearsonAEducation,
Molecular Inc. Approach, 2/e 35
Heat of Fusion
• The amount of heat energy required to melt one mole of the
solid is called the Heat of Fusion, DHfus
– sometimes called the enthalpy of fusion
• Always endothermic, therefore DHfus is +
• Somewhat temperature dependent
· DHcrystallization = −DHfusion
· Generally much less than DHvap
· DHsublimation = DHfusion + DHvaporization

Sample Exercise 11.6 Interpreting a Phase diagram
Referring to Figure 11.28, describe any changes in the phases present when
H2O is (a) kept at 0 °C while the pressure is increased from that at point
1 to that at point 5 (vertical line), (b) kept at 1.00 atm while the
temperature is increased from that at point 6 to that at point 9
Solution
(horizontal line).
Analyze: We are asked to use the phase diagram provided to deduce what
phase changes might occur when specific pressure and temperature changes
are brought about.
Plan: Trace the path indicated on the phase diagram, and note what
phases and phase changes occur.
Solve:
(a) At point 1, H2O exists totally as a vapor. At point 2 a solid–vapor
equilibrium exists. Above that pressure, at point 3, all the H2O is
converted to a solid. At point 4 some of the solid melts and equilibrium
between solid and liquid is achieved. At still higher pressures all the
H2O melts, so only the liquid phase is present at point 5.
(b) At point 6 the H2O exists entirely as a solid. When the temperature
reaches point 4, the solid begins to melt and equilibrium exists between
the solid and liquid phases. At an even higher temperature, point 7, the

Liquid Crystals

• Some substances do not go directly from the


solid state to the liquid state.
• In this intermediate state, liquid crystals have
some traits of solids and some of liquids.
• Molecules in liquid crystals have some degree
of order.
Intermolecular
Forces

Liquid
Crystals
• In nematic liquid
crystals, molecules
are only ordered in
one dimension, along the long axis.
• In smectic liquid crystals, molecules are
ordered in two dimensions, along the long axis
and in layers.
• In cholesteryic liquid crystals, nematic-like
crystals are layered at angles to each other. Intermolecular

Water – An Extraordinary Substance
• Water is a liquid at room temperature
 most molecular substances with similar molar masses are gases at
room temperature
 e.g. NH3, CH4
 due to H-bonding between molecules
• Water is an excellent solvent – dissolving many ionic and
polar molecular substances
 because of its large dipole moment
 even many small nonpolar molecules have some solubility in water
 e.g. O2, CO2
• Water has a very high specific heat for a molecular substance
 moderating effect on coastal climates
• Water expands when it freezes
 at a pressure of 1 atm
 about 9%
 making ice less dense than liquid water

Structure

Tro: Chemistry: A Molecular Approach, 2/e Copyright  2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Crystal Lattice
• When allowed to cool slowly, the particles in a
liquid will arrange themselves to give the
maximum attractive forces
 therefore minimize the energy
• The result will generally be a crystalline solid
• The arrangement of the particles in a
crystalline solid is called the crystal lattice
• The smallest unit that shows the pattern of
arrangement for all the particles is called the
unit cell

Unit Cells
• Unit cells are 3-dimensional
 usually containing 2 or 3 layers of particles
• Unit cells are repeated over and over to give the
macroscopic crystal structure of the solid
• Starting anywhere within the crystal results in the same
unit cell
• Each particle in the unit cell is called a lattice point
• Lattice planes are planes connecting equivalent points in
unit cells throughout the lattice

 for ions, it is the number of oppositely charged ions an
ion is in contact with
• Higher coordination number means more
interaction, therefore stronger attractive forces
holding the crystal together
• The packing efficiency is the percentage of

Sample Integrative Exercise Putting Concepts Together
The substance CS2 has a melting point of –110.8 °C and a boiling point of
46.3 °C. Its density at 20 °C is 1.26 g/cm3. It is highly flammable. (a)
What is the name of this compound? (b) List the intermolecular forces that
CS2 molecules would have with each other. (c) Predict what type of
crystalline solid CS2(s) would form. (d) Write a balanced equation for the
combustion of this compound in air. (You will have to decide on the most
likely oxidation products.) (e) The critical temperature and pressure for
CS2 are 552 K and 78 atm, respectively. Compare these values with those
for CO2 (Table 11.5), and discuss the possible origins of the differences.

(b) Only London dispersion forces affect CS2; it does not have a dipole
moment, based upon its molecular shape, and obviously cannot undergo
hydrogen bonding.
(c) Because CS2(s) consists of individual CS2 molecules, it will be a
molecular solid.
(d) The most likely products of the combustion will be CO2 and SO2.
(Sections 3.2 and 7.8) Under some conditions SO3 might be formed, but
this would be the less likely outcome. Thus, we have the following
equation for combustion:
CS2(l) + 3 O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2 SO2(g)

Solution (continued)
(f) The density would be lower at the higher temperature. Density
decreases with increasing temperature because the molecules possess
higher kinetic energies. Their more energetic movements result in larger
average distances between molecules, which translate into lower
densities.

Band Theory

• The structures of metals and covalent network


solids result in every atom’s orbitals being
shared by the entire structure
• For large numbers of atoms, this results in a
large number of molecular orbitals that have
approximately the same energy; we call this an
energy band

Tro: Chemistry: A Molecular Approach, 2/e 108 Copyright  2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Band Theory
• When two atomic orbitals combine they
produce both a bonding and an antibonding
molecular orbital
• When many atomic orbitals combine they
produce a band of bonding molecular orbitals
and a band of antibonding molecular orbitals
• The band of bonding molecular orbitals is
called the valence band
• The band of antibonding molecular orbitals is
called the conduction band

Band Gap
• At absolute zero, all the electrons will occupy
the valence band
• As the temperature rises, some of the electrons
may acquire enough energy to jump to the
conduction band
• The difference in energy between the valence
band and conduction band is called the band
gap

Conductivity

Tro: Chemistry: A Molecular Approach, 2/e 112 Copyright  2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Band Gap and Conductivity
• The more electrons at any one time that a substance has in
the conduction band, the better conductor of electricity it is
• If the band gap is ~0, then the electrons will be almost as
likely to be in the conduction band as the valence band and
the material will be a conductor
 metals
 the conductivity of a metal decreases with temperature
• If the band gap is small, then a significant number of the
electrons will be in the conduction band at normal
temperatures and the material will be a semiconductor
 graphite
 the conductivity of a semiconductor increases with temperature
• If the band gap is large, then effectively no electrons will be
in the conduction band at normal temperatures and the
material will be an insulator
Tro: Chemistry: A Molecular Approach, 2/e 113 Copyright  2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Doping Semiconductors
• Doping is adding impurities to the semiconductor’s
crystal to increase its conductivity
• Goal is to increase the number of electrons in the
conduction band
• n-type semiconductors do not have enough
electrons themselves to add to the conduction
band, so they are doped by adding electron-rich
impurities
• p-type semiconductors are doped with an
electron-deficient impurity, resulting in electron
“holes” in the valence band. Electrons can jump
between these holes in the valence band, allowing
conduction of electricity.

Diodes

• When a p-type semiconductor adjoins an n-type


semiconductor, the result is an p-n junction
• Electricity can flow across the p-n junction in
only one direction – this is called a diode
• This also allows the accumulation of electrical
energy – called an amplifier
