Explain how hydrogen bonding contributes to water's high heat of vaporization

Chemistry

pashok25 [27]2 years ago
4 0

The heat/enthalpy of vaporization of water represents the energy input required to convert one mole of water into vapor at a constant temperature. Intermolecular forces including hydrogen bondings of significant strength hold water molecules in place under its liquid state. Whereas the molecules experience almost no intermolecular interactions under the gaseous state- consider the way noble gases molecules interact. It is thus necessary to supply sufficient energy to overcome all intermolecular interactions present in the substance under its liquid state to convert the substance into a gas. The heat of vaporization is thus related to the strength of the intermolecular interactions.

Water molecules contain hydrogen atoms bonded directly to oxygen atoms. Oxygen atoms are highly electronegative and take major control of electrons in hydrogen-oxygen bonds. Hydrogen atoms in water molecules thus experience a strong partial-positive charge and would attract lone pairs of electron on neighboring water molecules. "Hydrogen bonds" refer to the attraction between hydrogen atoms bonded to electronegative elements and lone pairs of electrons. The hydrogen-oxygen bonds in water molecules are so polarized that hydrogen bonds in water are stronger than both dipole-dipole interactions and London Dispersion Forces in most other molecules. It thus take high amounts of energy to separate water molecules sufficiently apart such that they no longer experience intermolecular interactions and behave collectively like a gas. As a result, water has one of the highest heat of vaporization among covalent molecules of similar sizes.

g n the Ideal Gas Law lab, how is the temperature of the hydrogen gas determined? Select one: The pressure of the gas is determi
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The volume of the gas is determined, which will allow you to calculate the temperature.

Explanation:

According to Charles law; the volume of a given mass of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant pressure.

This implies that, when the volume of an ideal gas is measured at constant pressure, the temperature of the ideal gas can be calculated from it according to Charles law.

Hence in the Ideal Gas Law lab, the temperature of an ideal gas is measured by determining the volume of the ideal gas.

How many moles of C2H2 are needed to react completely with 84 mol O2
Butoxors [25]

Balanced chemical equation:

2 C2H2 + 5 O2 = 4 CO2 + 2 H2O

2 moles C2H2 ---------------- 5 moles O2
moles C2H2 ------------------ 84 moles O2

moles C2H2 = 84 * 2 / 5

molesC2H2 = 168 / 5 => 33.6 moles of C2H2

Answers to all of these
Paul [167]

Answer:

1. Percent composition of  Al = 13.423 %

2.

  • Percent composition of Zn = 28.02 %
  • Percent composition of Cl = 30.6 %
  • Percent composition of O = 41.3 %

3. The empirical formula is C₅O₁₆

4. Molecular Formula= P₄O₆

Explanation:

Part first :

Data Given

Formula of the Molecule = Al₂ (CrO₄)₃

% of Al₂ = ?

> First of all find the atomic masses of each component in a molecule

For Al₂ (CrO₄)₃ atomic masses are given below

Al = 27 g/mol

Cr = 52 g/mol

O = 16 g/mol

> Then find the total masses of each component

2 atoms of Al = 27 g/mol x 2

= 54 g/mol

3 atoms of Cr = 52 g/mol x 3

= 156 g/mol

12 atoms of O = 16 g/mol x 12

= 192 g/mol

> find total Molar Mass of Molecule:

Molar Mass of Al₂ (CrO₄)₃ = [27x2 + 52x3 + 16x12]

Molar Mass of Al₂ (CrO₄)₃ = 402

Now to find the mass percent of Al

Formula used to find the Mass percent of a component

Percent composition of  Al = mass of Al in Molecula / molar mass of Al₂(CrO₄)₃ x 100%

Put the values

Percent composition of  Al =  54 (g/mol) / 402 (g/mol) x 100%

Percent composition of  Al = 13.423 %

Part 2

Data Given

Formula of the Molecule = Zn(ClO₃)₂

% Zn = ?

% Cl = ?

% O = ?

> First of all find the atomic masses of each component in a molecule

For Zn(ClO₃)₂ atomic masses are given below

Zn = 65 g/mol

Cl = 35.5 g/mol

O = 16 g/mol

> Then find the total masses of each component

1 atoms of Zn= 65 g/mol x 1

= 65 g/mol

2 atoms of Cl = 35.5 g/mol x  

= 71 g/mol

6 atoms of O = 16 g/mol x 6

= 96 g/mol

> find total Molar Mass of Molecule:

Molar Mass of Zn(ClO₃)₂ = [65x1 + 35.5x2 + 16x6]

Molar Mass of Zn(ClO₃)₂ = 232g/mol

Now to find the mass percent of of each component one by one

1.  Formula used to find the mass percent of Zn

Percent composition of  Zn= mass of Zn in Molecular / molar mass of Zn(ClO₃)₂ x 100%

Put the values

Percent composition of Zn = 65(g/mol) / 232 (g/mol) x 100%

Percent composition of Zn = 28.02 %

-------------------

2.  Formula used to find the mass percent of Cl

Percent composition of  Cl = mass of Cl in Molecular / molar mass of Zn(ClO₃)₂ x 100%

Put the values

Percent composition of Cl = 71 (g/mol) / 232 (g/mol) x 100%

Percent composition of Cl = 30.6 %

---------------------

3.  Formula used to find the mass percent of O

Percent composition of  O = mass of O in Molecular / molar mass of Zn(ClO₃)₂ x 100%

Put the values

Percent composition of O = 96 (g/mol) / 232 (g/mol) x 100%

Percent composition of O = 41.3 %

________________________________________

Part 3:

Data Given

Percentage of C = 27.3 %

Percentage of O = 72.7 %

Emperical Formula of the compound = ?

Solution:

So the compound has 27.3 % C and 72% O

First, find the mass of each of the elements in 100 g of the Compound.

C = 27.3 g

O = 72 g

Now find how many moles are there for each element in 100 g of compound

For this molar mass are required

That is

C = 12 g/mol

O = 16 g/mol

Formula Used

mole of C = mass of C / Molar mass of C

 mole of C = 27.3 / 12 g/mol

  mole of C = 2.275

Formula Used

mole of O = mass of O / Molar mass of O

 mole of O = 72g / 16 g/mol

  mole of O = 7.2

Divide each one by the smallest number of moles

C = 2.275 / 2.275

C = 1

O = 7.2 / 2.275

O = 3.2

Multiply the mole fraction to a number to get the whole number.

C = 1 x 5 = 5

O = 3.2 x 5 =  16

So, the empirical formula is C₅O₁₆

______________________________________

Part 4

Data Given

Percentage of P= 56.38 %

Percentage of O = 43.62%

Molar Mass = 219.9g

Molecular Formula of the compound = ?

Solution:

First, find the mass of each of the elements in 100 g of the Compound.

Mass of P= 56.38g

Mass of O = 43.62g

Now find how many moles are there for each element in 100 g of compound

find the moles in total compounds

Formula Used

mole of P = mass of  / Molar mass of P

 mole of P = 56.38 g / 31 g/mol

  mole of P = 1.818

Formula Used

mole of O = mass of O / Molar mass of O

 mole of O = 43. 62 / 16 g/mol

  mole of O = 2.7262

Now

first find the Emperical formula

Divide each one by the smallest number of moles

P = 1.818 /1.818

P= 1

for oxygen

O = 2.7262 / 1.818

O = 1.5

Multiply the mole fraction to a number to get the whole number.

P = 1 x 2 = 2

O = 1.5 x 2 =  3

So, the empirical formula is P₂O₃

Now  

Find molar mass of the empirical formula P₂O₃

2 (31) + 3 (16) = 62 + 48 = 110

Now find that how many empirical units are in a molecular unit.

(219.9 g/mol) / ( 110 g/mol) =  empirical units per molecular unit

empirical units per molecular unit = 1.999 =2

A here we get two empirical units in a molecular unit,

So the molecular formula is:

2 (P₂O₃) = P₄O₆
