How does distillation work.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Usimov [2.4K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Distillation is an important commercial process that is used in the purification of a large variety of materials. However, before we begin a discussion of distillation, it would probably be beneficial to define the terms that describe the process and related properties. ... Elevation of the boiling point with an increase in external pressure, while important in cooking and sterilizing food or utensils, is less important in distillation.

Explain how hydrogen bonding contributes to water's high heat of vaporization
pashok25 [27]

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.

A weather balloon is filled with helium that occupies a volume of 5.57 104 L at 0.995 atm and 32.0°C. After it is released, it r
Alchen [17]

6.52 × 10⁴ L. (3 sig. fig.)

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Helium is a noble gas. The interaction between two helium molecules is rather weak, which makes the gas rather "ideal."

Consider the ideal gas law:

P\cdot V = n\cdot R\cdot T,

where

  • P is the pressure of the gas,
  • V is the volume of the gas,
  • n is the number of gas particles in the gas,
  • R is the ideal gas constant, and
  • T is the absolute temperature of the gas in degrees Kelvins.

The question is asking for the final volume V of the gas. Rearrange the ideal gas equation for volume:

V = \dfrac{n \cdot R \cdot T}{P}.

Both the temperature of the gas, T, and the pressure on the gas changed in this process. To find the new volume of the gas, change one variable at a time.

Start with the absolute temperature of the gas:

  • T_0 = (32.0 + 273.15) \;\text{K} = 305.15\;\text{K},
  • T_1 = (-14.5 + 273.15) \;\text{K} = 258.65\;\text{K}.

The volume of the gas is proportional to its temperature if both n and P stay constant.

  • n won't change unless the balloon leaks, and
  • consider P to be constant, for calculations that include T.

V_1 = V_0 \cdot \dfrac{T_1}{T_2} = 5.57\times 10^{4}\;\text{L}\times \dfrac{258.65\;\textbf{K}}{305.15\;\textbf{K}} = 4.72122\times 10^{4}\;\text{L}.

Now, keep the temperature at T_1 =258.65\;\text{K} and change the pressure on the gas:

  • P_1 = 0.995\;\text{atm},
  • P_2 = 0.720\;\text{atm}.

The volume of the gas is proportional to the reciprocal of its absolute temperature \dfrac{1}{T} if both n and T stays constant. In other words,

V_2 = V_1 \cdot\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{P_2}}{\dfrac{1}{P_1}} = V_1\cdot\dfrac{P_1}{P_2} = 4.72122\times 10^{4}\;\text{L}\times\dfrac{0.995\;\text{atm}}{0.720\;\text{atm}}=6.52\times 10^{4}\;\text{L}

(3 sig. fig. as in the question.).

See if you get the same result if you hold T constant, change P, and then move on to change T.
