- (A) The molecules can no longer be condensed because they are moving too quickly at the critical temperature.
- Because the forces are insufficient to stop molecular motion, this temperature drops with weaker intermolecular forces.
- Alternately, the critical temperature rises as intermolecular forces increase.
b) The boiling point rises as intermolecular forces do because it becomes harder and more energy-intensive to separate molecules from the liquid phase.
(C) For the same reason as in b), the vapor pressure falls as intermolecular forces rise.
- Strong intermolecular forces prevent molecules from entering the vapor phase easily at any given temperature, resulting in a decrease in vapor pressure.
d) The heat of vaporization rises as intermolecular forces increase because more energy is required to separate molecules from one another.
