Intermolecular Forces: Why Condensed Phases Exist
• Intermolecular Forces– Chemical bonds
• Strong• Directional• Short Range (relative)
• Intermolecular Forces• Weaker than chemical bonds, usually much
weaker• Less directional than covalent bonds, more
directional than ionic bonds• Longer range than covalent bonds but at
shorter range than ionic bonds
• Condensed Phases– Solids and Liquids– Intermolecular forces: mutual attractions
hold the molecules closer together than gases
• Potential Energy Curves– Distinction between intramolecular and intermolecular Forces
2/3/2003 OFB Chapter 6 3
Potential Energy Curves
2/3/2003 OFB Chapter 6 4
Potential EnergyCurves
• Atoms or molecules approach at large distance (zero PE (energy of position)
• PE goes negative as intermolecular forces come into play
• PE minimum energy well is a balance of Intermolecular forces and repulsive forces
• PE goes positive as repulsive forces dominate

6-3 Phase Equilibrium
• Coexisting phase equilibrium– Vapor pressure
Phase: A sample of matter that is uniform throughout, both in its chemical constitution and in its physical state.
2/3/2003 OFB Chapter 6 14
Correcting for the Vapor Pressure of Water in “Wet Gases”
• Many chemical reactions conducted in aqueous solution often generate gaseous products
• The gas collected will be “humid” or “wet” due to the coexistence of the gas and water vapor.
• A correction is made to account for the water vapor present
2/3/2003 OFB Chapter 6 15
Exercise page 6-2:
Passage of an electric current through a dilute aqueous solution of sodium sulfate produces a mixture of gaseous hydrogen and oxygen according to the following equation:
2 H2O(l) → 2 H2(g) + O2(g)
One liter of the mixed gases is collected over water at 25oC and under a total pressure of 755.3 torr. Calculate the mass of oxygen that is present. The vapor pressure of water is 23.8 torr at 25oC.
2/3/2003 OFB Chapter 6 16
For ideal gas mixtures
P of a gas is proportional to the number of moles of gas
2 H2O(l) → 2 H2(g) + O2(g)

• liquid equilibrium gas
Boiling Point
• Vapor press = external pressure
Normal boiling point
• Vap press. = 1 atm
Melting
• solid equilibrium liquid
Melting Point
• Vapor press = external pressure
Normal melting point
• Vap press. = 1 atm
2/3/2003 OFB Chapter 6 19
Intermolecular Forces and Phase Transitions
The stronger the intermolecular attractions in a liquid, the lower the vapor pressure at any temperature
2/3/2003 OFB Chapter 6 20
Special Case of Water
Due to Hydrogen Boiling
1. Water expands when it freezes
2. Water has a higher Boiling point and higher melting pint than expected for its Molar Mass, cf. other Group VI
3. The energy input to boil is exceptional high (45kJ) and the reverse (condensation of steam) release the same large amount.

6-6 Colligative Properties of Solutions
• For some properties, the amount of difference between a pure solvent and dilute solution depend only on the number of solute particles present and not on their chemical identify.
• Called Colligative Properties• Examples
– Vapor Pressure– Melting Point– Boiling Point– Osmotic Pressure
2/3/2003 OFB Chapter 6 29
Colligative Properties of Solutions
Mass percentage (weight percentage):
mass percentage of the component =

Mole fraction: The chemical amount (in moles) divided by the total amount (in moles)
X1 = n1/(n1 + n2)
X2 = n2/(n1 + n2) = 1 - X1

Ideal Solutions and Raoult’s Law
• Consider a non-volatile solute in a solvent
• X1 = mole fraction of solvent
P1=X1 P°1
Negative deviation
= solute-solvent attractions > solvent-solvent attractions
Positive deviation
= solute-solvent attractions < solvent-solvent attractions
2/3/2003 OFB Chapter 6 35
• Lowering of Vapor Pressure– Vapor Pressure of a solvent above a
dilute solution is always less than the vapor pressure above the pure solvent.
• Elevation of Boiling Point– The boiling point of a solution of a non-
volatile solute in a volatile solvent always exceeds the boiling point of a pure solvent

But…. For Real Solutions• Henry’s Law (for dilute
solutions)– The vapor pressure of a volatile in
a sufficiently dilute solution is proportional to the mole fraction of the solute in the solution.

If component 2 is a sufficiently small value of the mole fraction, then
kH is Henry’s Law constant

According to Henry’s Law, as the prssure of a gas above a solution is increased, the mole fraction of the gas in solution increases in direct proportion
