CHEMISTRY: the branch of science dealing with the composition of matter and the changes in composition of
matter and the changes in composition which matter undergoes.
1PLASMA BOSE-EINSTEIN CONDENSATE - It is a state of matter of dilute gas of bosons cooled to temperature
very closed to absolute zero1
Kinetic Theory states that the tiny particles in all forms of matter are in zero motion.
3. When particles collide with each other or the container, the collisions are perfectly elastic (no energy is lost)
Phase - A homogeneous part of a system in contact with other parts of the system, but separated from these
other parts by welldefined boundaries.

INTERMOLECULAR FORCES OF ATTRACTION
- exist between polar and non polar. Each polar molecule Has unequal electron, densities, resulting in a dipole – a
partial positive end and a partial negative end. Thus when two polar molecules are brought close together, the
partial positive charge of one molecule will be attracted to the partial negative charge of neighbouring molecule.
2.HYDROGEN BONDS
- Is a special type of dipole – dipole interaction that exist only in molecules that contain a hydrogen atom bonded
to a small, highly electronegative such as N, O, F. 2
- The degree of ion dipole interaction depends on the size and charge of the ion and on the size and dipole
moment of the polar molecule.
- Ion dipole attraction becomes stronger either as the charge of the ion increases, or as the magnitude of the
dipole moment of polar molecule increases.
These are the weakest of the intermolecular forces and exist between all types of molecules, whether ionic or
covalent—polar or nonpolar. The more electrons a molecule has, the stronger the London dispersion forces are.
1. Surface Tension- is the measure of the elastic force in the surface of a liquid. It is the amount of energy
required to stretch or increase the surface of a liquid by a unit area.
1. Cohesion is the intermolecular attraction between like molecules (the liquid molecules).
2. Adhesion is an attraction between unlike molecules (such as those in water and in the particles that make up
the glass tube).
2. Capillary Action - the tendency of a liquid to rise in narrow tubes or be drawn into small openings.

3.Viscosity- is a measure of a fluid’s resistance to flow.3
4. Vapor- A gaseous substance that exist naturally as a liquid or solid at normal temperature3.
5. Vapor Pressure of a Liquid- The equilibrium pressure of a vapor above its liquid.
- The boiling point of a liquid when the external pressure is 1 atm is called the normal boiling point.
MOLAR HEAT OF VAPORIZATION: The amount of heat necessary to boil (or condense) 1.00 mole of a substance
at its boiling point.
Note: The molar heat of vaporization for water is 40.7 kJ/mol. To get the heat of vaporization, you simply divide
the molar heat by 18.015 g/mol. (40.7 kJ/mol) = (2259 J/g)3
2 TYPES OF SOLIDS
1. Amorphous solids
Have a random orientation of particles. They are considered super-cooled liquids where molecules are arranged
in a random manner similar to the liquid state. 3
Are arranged in fixed geometric patterns or lattices. The ordered arrangement of their units maximizes the space
they occupy and are essentially incompressible. 4
Examples of crystalline solids are ice and sodium chloride (NaCl), copper sulfate (CuSO4), diamond, graphite, and
sugar (C12H22O11). 4
4 Types of Crystals
1. METALLIC CRYSTALS
The crystal is held together by electrostatic interactions between the cations and delocalized electron.
These interactions are called metallic bonds. 4
Dense
2. IONIC CRYSTALS
Ionic crystals are made of ions (cations and anions). These ions form strong electrostatic interactions that hold
the crystal lattice together. 4
Hard
3. MOLECULAR CRYSTALS
Molecular crystals are made of atoms, such as in noble gases, or molecules, such as in sugar (C12H22O11), iodine
(I2), and naphthalene (C10H8). The atoms or molecules are held together by a mix of hydrogen bonding/ dipole-
dipole and dispersion forces, and these are the attractive forces that are broken when the crystal melts. Hence,
most molecular crystals have relatively low melting points.4

Phase Changes- are transformations of matter from one physical state to another.5
- The more similar the intermolecular attractions, the more likely one substance is to be soluble in another.5
Gases in Solution
• The solubility of liquids and solids does not change appreciably with pressure.
5
• The solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to its pressure6
Temperature
Generally, the solubility of solid solutes in liquid solvents increases with increasing temperature.6
Colligative Properties
• Changes in colligative properties depend only on the number of solute particles present, not on the identityof
the solute particles.
– Osmotic pressure
Vapor Pressure
Because of solute-solvent intermolecular attraction, higher concentrations of nonvolatile solutes make it
harder for solvent to escape to the vapor phase.6
Osmosis
In osmosis, there is net movement of solvent from the area of higher solvent concentration (lower solute
concentration) to the are of lower solvent concentration (higher solute concentration).6
Boiling Point Elevation- The change in boiling point is proportional to the molality of the solution:
- Tb = Kb • m • i6
Freezing Point Depression- The change in freezing point can be found similarly:
- Tf = Kf • m • i
