The surface tension and viscosity values for diethyl ether, acetone, ethanol, and ethylene glycol are shown here
(a) Explain their differences in viscosity in terms of the size and shape of their molecules and their IMFs.
(b) Explain their differences in surface tension in terms of the size and shape of their molecules and their IMFs:
The edge length of the unit cell for nickel is 0.3524 nm. The density of Ni is \(8.90\;{\rm{g}}/{\rm{c}}{{\rm{m}}^3}\). Does nickel crystallize in a simple cubic structure? Explain.
What phase changes will take place when water is subjected to varying pressure at a constant temperature of \({\rm{0}}{\rm{.00}}{{\rm{5}}^{\rm{o}}}{\rm{C}}\)? At \({\rm{4}}{{\rm{0}}^{\rm{o}}}{\rm{C}}\) ? At \({\rm{ - 4}}{{\rm{0}}^{\rm{o}}}{\rm{C}}\)?
Water rises in a glass capillary tube to a height of 17 cm. What is the diameter of the capillary tube?
You may have heard someone use the figure of speech “slower than molasses in winter” to describe a process that occurs slowly. Explain why this is an apt idiom, using concepts of molecular size and shape, molecular interactions, and the effect of changing temperature.
