Intermolecular Forces

Intermolecular Forces Lab
II. Goal:
The central goal of this experiment is to depict the intermolecular forces of four different properties of solubility, evaporation, viscosity, and boiling point.
The reason for achieving the goal is so we can further understand solubility, Evaporation, viscosity, and the boiling point of liquids. III. Experimental procedures
In this Lab there were four different stations to experiment with, my partner and I started with grabbing our goggles, and then we started with station 4, solubility, we had add a small amount of 4 different liquids (Hexane, Ethanol, Water, or Vegetable oil) to a well, then we had add a solid (Salt,Sugar, or Lard) to each of the 4

As with Lard none of the liquid dissolved with it. Adding the soap to the solids also didn’t dissolve anything. For the second station, Acetone had the lowest boiling point with 60 °C, then Hexane with 62 °C, Ethanol with 80 °C and lastly Water with the highest boiling point of 85 °C. For the third station, with the highest and lowest viscous, Hexan had the lowest viscous of 2.03, third was Ethanol with 1.39, second was Water with 1.33, and Mineral oil was the slowest with 1.09. For the fourth and final station, the liquid with the fastest evaporation time was Ethanol then last with the slowest evaporation times were water.

Evidence and analysis.
For station 1 water was the most soluble because it dissolved in almost all the solids and the other two liquids couldn’t. The water is soluble because the water when the solid is placed into it, it converts into a polar solvent molecule which then is able to liquefy the solid. For station 2, Ethanol is more viscous than any of the other solvent because it has a higher viscosity. In station 3, water boils the fastest because the molecules are moving so quickly in the glass

    As a liquid evaporates, it lowers the temperature of the substances around them, because evaporation is an endothermic process. In the graph, each substance has a different curve. Some lowered the temperature much more than others. This is because different substances require differing amounts of energy to evaporate. To test this, the temperature change from the evaporation of 4 different alcohols was measured and compared, along with cyclohexane. Methanol had the largest change in temperature, 18.9 ºC. This indicates that methanol has the weakest intermolecular attractions out of the 4 alcohols, because it evaporated the most. This may be because methanol is a small molecule so it has less electrons and therefore is not as polarizable as…

    Have you ever left a container with some type of liquid in it and wondered how it could it evaporate so quickly? The evaporation of an unpredictable liquid is an endothermic process that results in a temperature decrease. The amount of temperature decrease is related to the strength of intermolecular forces of attraction. The rate of evaporation can be described as the change of temperature divided by the time it takes to reach the lowest temperature. ΔT/Δt (°C/s). In this experiment my group and I are investigating factors that determine the strength of intermolecular forces by determining the rate at which liquids evaporate. The different types of intermolecular forces are as follows, Ion dipole are the strongest forces, Dipole Dipole which are between polar molecules and both positive and negative ions attract to each other, dispersion are the weakest of all intermolecular forces, they also are formed by the shifting of electron clouds within molecules and hydrogen bonding which is attractive force between the hydrogen attached to an electronegative atom of one molecule and an electronegative atom…
