small crystal, which generates voltage and causes a spark between wires that are attached to
opposite surfaces of the crystal. The phenomenon of causing an electric potential through
mechanical stress is known as the piezoelectric effect. One type of crystal that exhibits the

119. Ionic liquids (ILs) are salts that are in the liquid state. At a given temperature, ILs have
lower vapor pressures than molecular compounds in the liquid state because the forces of
attraction between oppositely charged ions are much stronger than intermolecular forces.
Thus, ILs tend to be much less volatile and less flammable than many other liquids. ILs are
of interest because of their potential role as “safer” and “greener” solvents. Two examples
of ionic liquids are 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, [Bmim][BF4], and 1-
allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride, [Amim]Cl, both of which consist of a relatively large
organic cation and an inorganic anion.

121. Intermolecular forces play vital and varied roles in nature. For example, these forces enable
gecko lizards to climb walls and hang upside down from ceilings, seemingly defying gravity.
Intermolecular forcesmore specifically, hydrogen bondsare the reason that DNA
molecules, carriers of the genetic code for most living organisms, exist as a double helix. The
helical structure of proteins, the molecules that catalyze biochemical reactions occurring in
our bodies and regulate metabolic processes, is also the result of hydrogen bonding. In
Section 12-1, we learned about the physical basis of different types of intermolecular forces,
such as dipoledipole, dipoleinduced dipole, and instantaneous dipoleinduced dipole
(dispersion) interactions. We also discussed the relative strengths of these different types of
interactions and the percent contributions they make to the attraction between molecules.
This problem focuses on doing calculations to verify the claims made in Section 12-1.

own dimensions, the average potential energy of interaction, E, is approximately

122. In a capillary rise experiment, the height (h) to which a liquid rises depends on the density

( )

123. We have learned that the enthalpy of vaporization of a liquid is generally a function of
temperature. If we wish to take this temperature variation into account, we cannot use the
ClausiusClapeyron equation in the form given in the text (that is, equation 12.2). Instead, we
must go back to the differential equation upon which the ClausiusClapeyron equation is based
and reintegrate it into a new expression. Our starting point is the following equation describing
124. All solids contain defects or imperfections of structure or composition. Defects are
important because they influence properties, such as mechanical strength. Two common
types of defects are a missing ion in an otherwise perfect lattice, and the slipping of an ion
from its normal site to a hole in the lattice. The holes discussed in this chapter are often
called interstitial sites, since the holes are in fact interstices in the array of spheres. The two
types of defects described here are called point defects because they occur within specific
sites. In the 1930s, two solid-state physicists, W. Schottky and J. Fraenkel, studied the two
types of point defects: A Schottky defect corresponds to a missing ion in a lattice, while a
Fraenkel defect corresponds to an ion that is displaced into an interstitial site.
(a)
An example of a Schottky defect is the absence of a
Na+
ion in the NaCl structure. The
absence of a
Na+
ion means that a
Cl
ion must also be absent to preserve electrical
neutrality. If one NaCl unit is missing per unit cell, does the overall stoichiometry change,
and what is the change in density?
(b)
An example of a Fraenkel defect is the movement of a
Ag+
ion to a tetrahedral
interstitial site from its normal octahedral site in AgCl, which has a structure like NaCl.
Does the overall stoichiometry of the compound change, and do you expect the density to
change?
(c) Titanium monoxide (TiO) has a sodium chloride-like structure. X-ray diffraction data
show that the edge length of the unit cell is 418 pm. The density of the crystal is
3
4 92 g/cm
. Do the data indicate the presence of vacancies? If so, what type of vacancies?
125. In an ionic crystal lattice each cation will be attracted by anions next to it and repulsed by
cations near it. Consequently the coulomb potential leading to the lattice energy depends on
