the short-range attractive forces between particles of a liquid or solid substance
an intermolecular force that exists because of the interaction of polar molecules in "close" contact
an intermolecular force that exists because of the interaction of induced dipoles on particles in "close" contact
"bonding" (actually an intermolecular force) that occurs when a hydrogen in one particle interacts with nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine in a "nearby" particle
the force that exists between an ion and a neutral polar molecule
the ease with which the electron cloud of an atom or molecule is distorted (aka polarizability)
a measure of the resistance of flow of a liquid
the intermolecular cohesive attraction that causes a liquid to minimize its surface area
the process by which a liquid rises in a tube (adhesion to walls/cohesion of liquid particles)
the conversion of a substance from one state of matter to another - a physical change
the enthalpy change (ΔH) for the vaporization of a solid
the enthalpy change (ΔH) for melting a solid
the enthalpy change (ΔH) for the vaporization of a liquid
the highest temperature at which the gaseous form of a substance is converted to the liquid state
the pressure at which a gas at its critical temperature is converted to a liquid state
the pressure exerted by a vapor in equilibrium with its liquid or solid phase
a state of balance in which opposing processes occur at the same rate
tending to evaporate readily
the temperature at which the liquid and gas phases of a substance are in equilibrium at 1 atm pressure
a pressure-temperature map showing the equilibria among the solid, liquid, and gas phases
the temperature at which the solid and liquid phases of a substance are in equilibrium at 1 atm pressure
