Answer:
a) increases
b) decreases
c) does not change
d) increases
Explanation:
The vapour pressure of a liquid is dependent on;
I) the magnitude of intermolecular forces
II) the temperature of the liquid
Hence, when any of these increases, the vapour pressure increases likewise.
Similarly, the boiling point of a liquid depends on the magnitude of intermolecular forces present because as intermolecular forces increases, more energy is required to break intermolecular bonds.
Lastly, increase in surface area of a liquid does not really affect it's vapour pressure.
C is your answer. Because if you add two of them together you get a compound.
The
correct answer is A. In the combined gas law, if the volume is decreased and
the pressure is constant, then the temperature decreases.
<span>P1V1/
T1 = P2V2 / T2</span>
<span>Assume
the volume decrease by half; V2 = V1/2</span>
<span>P1V1/
T1 = P2V1 /2 T2</span>
<span>Cancelling
terms,</span>
<span>1/T1
= 1/2 T2</span>
T2
= T1/2
<span>Thus,
the temperature decreased.</span>
