1.

Which of the following properties is not affected by intermolecular forces?

a)

Color

b)

Melting point

c)

Surface tension

d)

Viscosity

2.

Which of these substances is expected to have the highest boiling point?

a)

NH3

b)

NF3

c)

C2H6

d)

C4H8

3.

What is the relationship between vapor pressure and intermolecular forces?

a)

Vapor pressure does not depend upon intermolecular forces, only the strength of chemical bonds.

b)

Stronger intermolecular forces cause particles to repel each other, raising the vapor pressure.

c)

Stronger IMFs cause particles to stick together, lowering the vapor pressure.

d)

Intermolecular forces cause all liquids to have the same vapor pressure.

4.

Based on the strength of intermolecular forces, which would you expect to have the highest vapor pressure?

a)

NF3

b)

NH3

c)

CH4

d)

C5H12

5.

Compare the viscosity of CH3OH and CH3Cl

a)

You cannot predict viscosity without knowing the color of the liquid

b)

CH3Cl is more viscous because it has a greater mass than CH3OH

c)

CH3Cl is more viscous because CH3OH has hydrogen bonds while CH3Cl's strongest force is dipole-dipole

d)

CH3OH is more viscous because CH3OH has hydrogen bonds while CH3Cl's strongest force is dipole-dipole

6.

Select the correct order of molecules from lowest to highest boiling point, based on intermolecular forces.

a)

CH4 < C2H6 < H2O < SO2

b)

H2O < SO2 < C2H6 < CH4

c)

C2H6 < CH4 < H2O < SO2

d)

CH4 < C2H6 < SO2 < H2O

7.

Ionic bonds and covalent bonds are ____ than intermolecular forces

a)

Stronger

b)

Weaker

8.

Which of the following will have a higher melting point?

a)

NaCl because it has ionic bonds

b)

HF because it has hydrogen bonding

9.

A liquid evaporates very quickly. What type of intermolecular force(s) would you expect to be present?

a)

London dispersion, dipole-dipole, and hydrogen bonding

b)

London dispersion and dipole-dipole

c)

Only London dispersion forces

10.

Which of these melts at the highest temperature?

a)

CH4

b)

NaBr

c)

H2O

d)

SeO
