  • Example Sahara Desert Oases in the Sahara
    support life with water from ancient rivers and
    lakes (satellite observations support this). The
    Sahara used to be quite lush but the earth tilted
    away from the sun and changed it into a desert
    (What defines a desert? Rainfall). When the
    Sahara was closer to the sun it got more
    rainfall. This allowed for increased evaporation
    which lowered the average temperature even though
    the Sahara was closer to the sun.

Reversible Reactions
  • Most chemical reactions are reversible.
  • Depending on conditions.

7
H2O(l) ? H2O(g)
  • Evaporation and condensation are reversible
    processes.
  • An equilibrium occurs when two opposing processes
    occur at the same rate.

H2O(l) ? H2O(g)
  • Evaporation and condensation are reversible
    processes.
  • An equilibrium occurs when two opposing processes
    occur at the same rate.
  • At equilibrium the concentrations of the
    substances involved in the reaction will remain
    constant.
  • concentration.

Vapor Pressure
  • Suppose we conduct an experiment in which we
    place a quantity of ethanol (C2H5OH) in an
    evacuated, closed container (a).
  • The ethanol will quickly begin to evaporate.
  • The pressure exerted by the vapor will begin to
    increase.
  • After a short time the pressure will attain a
    constant value, called the vapor pressure of
    ethanol (b).

12
Vapor Pressure
  • At any given temperature, for a particular
    substance, there is a pressure at which the gas
    of that substance is in equilibrium with its
    liquid or solid form. This is the vapor
    pressure of that substance at that temperature.
  • The equilibrium vapor pressure is an indication
    of a liquid's evaporation rate.
  • A substance with a high vapor pressure at normal
    temperatures has a high rate of evaporation and
    is often referred to as volatile.

13
Attractive Forces
  • Two types of attractive forces are
  • Intramolecular forces
  • Intermolecular forces

14
Intramolecular Forces
  • Intramolecular forces attractive forces that
    hold particles together using ionic, covalent, or
    metallic bonds
  • Intra means within
  • Intramolecular forces bonds

15
Intermolecular Forces(Van der Waals forces)
  • Inter means between
  • Intermolecular forces are forces between
    molecules
  • Larger polar molecules have greater Van der Waals
    forces.
