STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF WATER Seven Principal Crystal Patterns
Structure of Water In Crystalline Solids
• At room temperature, pure water is
colorless, odorless and tasteless liquid
• It turns to ice, its solid form, at 0°C and 1
atm
• At 100°C, it becomes a gas, called steam
• Water molecules has bent shape, with two
partially positive hydrogen atoms and a
partially negative oxygen atom
• It is a polar molecule
Properties of Water
High Boiling Point
• strong intermolecular forces caused by
formation of H-bond

heat without change in temperature Shape Definite and No definite

- Definite shape and volume and minimizes repulsion for high degree of
1) Crystalline Solid stability
• Particles are arranged in regular geometric • Hard, brittle, high melting point, poor
pattern electrical and thermal conductivity
• Highly ordered and repetitive pattern Example: NaCl, KBr, CuCl2
*Unit Cells – definite patterns that repeat
themselves in solid crystals Covalent Solids
Ex. NaCl and sugar • Made up of atoms and are joined by covalent
2) Amorphous Solid bonds
• Have fixed shape and volume but particles • Some covalent solids form molecules while
are not arranged in regular geometric pattern some form covalent network extending
• “super cooled liquids” throughout the solid crystal
• Very hard, very high melting points, poor
electrical and thermal conductivity
Example: Phase Diagram of Carbon Dioxide
Graphite and diamond
Molecular Solids
• Atoms or molecules held together by
intermolecular forces like dispersion forces,
dipole-dipole forces and hydrogen bonds
• Soft, low to moderately high melting points,
poor electrical and thermal conductivity
Example: CO2, NH3, CH4, H2O
Metallic Solids
• Joined by metallic bonds

valence electrons and the fixed positive metal
ion binds the atoms together IMPORTANT TERMS
• Strength of force depends on the nature of • Triple Point – substance exists as liquid, gas
metal and solid all at the same time at equilibrium
• Good electrical and thermal conductors, • Critical Temperature – maximum
malleable and ductile temperature at which liquid can be liquefied
Example: Metals • Critical Pressure – maximum pressure at

PHASE CHANGES
• Transformation of matter from one state to
another that involves the absorption or
evolution of heat.
• When a substance changes states.
• Requires the input or the removal of energy
or change in pressure.
• During a phase change the temperature does
not change, but the amount of energy does.
• Heat has a great effect on the overall process.
HEATING CURVE
• Shows the transformation of matter from
solid to liquid to gas when heat is added
COOLING CURVE
• Shows the transformation of gas to liquid and
then to solid with a continuous release of heat

substance to temperature and pressure

can conduct electricity.
- Examples: NaCl, HCl, NaOH
Non-Electrolytes
- Particles that do not ionize at all in solution
thus cannot conduct electricity.
- Example: Table Sugar mixed with water
- Dependent on the nature of components
VAPOR PRESSURE LOWERING
- The Vapor Pressure of a solution with a
nonvolatile (can easily evaporate) solute is
always lower than that of the pure solvent.
Raoult’s Law
pH SCALE - “the vapor pressure of a solvent over a
Higher H+ lower number (Acid) solution is equal to the product of the vapor

Common Acids and Bases - Psolvent = xsolventP°solvent
Base: Soap pH 10 - For a solution containing only one solute:
Acid: lemon juice pH 2 - Xsolvent = 1-xsolute
Acids and Bases neutralize each other - “The decrease in vapor pressure (ΔP) is
directly proportional to the solute
concentration.
FREEZING POINT DEPRESSION
- Depending on what the solvent is, one mole
of any nonelectrolyte will lower the freezing
point of a given amount of solvent by a
constant amount referred to as the freezing
point depression constant ( Kf ), also termed
cryoscopic constant
- FREEZING POINT DEPRESSION ( Δtf ) is
related to the molal concentration of a
nonelectrolyte solute by the ff. equation:
- Δtf = tsolution – tpure solvent = -(molality)( Kf )
BOILING POINT ELEVATION
- One mole of any nonvolatile, nonelectrolyte
solute will elevate the boiling point of given
amount of solvent by a constant factor
depending on what the solvent is. This factor
is known as molal boiling point elevation
constant (Kb), also termed as ebullioscopic
constant.
- BOILING POINT ELEVATION ( Δtb ) is
related to the molal concentration of a
nonelectrolyte solute by the ff. equation:
- Δtb = tsolution – tpure solvent = (molality)( Kb )
ELECTROLYTIC SOLUTIONS
- The factor i is called the van’t Hoff factor and
is equal to the number of ions in one formula
unit of an electrolytic solute.
- Δtf = -i(molality)(Kf)
- Δtb = -i(molality)(Kb)
- Example: NaCl and MgCl2
OSMOTIC AND OSMOTIC PRESSURE
- Osmosis is a process through which a solvent
flows through a semipermeable membrane
from a less concentrated solution to a more
concentrated one.
- Osmotic Pressure is the amount of pressure
required to stop osmosis.
