What is the effect of soluble volatile substance on the boiling point of a water solution?

A soluble volatile substance will lower the boiling point of a solution. The volatile substance will boil at a lower temperature than the water component, thus causing the solution to boil at a lower temperature.


What has a higher boiling point CH3CH3 or CH3Cl?

CH3Cl because it is polar meaning it has both a dipole-dipole bond and dispersion bond, where as CCl4 is non polar and only has a dispersion bond. Since CH3Cl is bonded together stronger, it will be harder to break up and therefore a greater temperature will be required to boil it Edited (9/20/10) CCl4 has a bp 76.7 C, CH3Cl has a bp -24.2 C, see wikipedia or MSDS info. That means the first answer is wrong. Boiling points are based on intermolecular forces. Stronger the forces, lower the vapor pressure, higher the bp. The reason CCl4 has a higher boiling point is because dispersion forces increase with increasing molecular weight and # of electrons. Therefore the greater number of electrons in CCl4 create a stronger dispersion force than the combined dipole+dispersion forces in the CH3Cl.

Does CBr4 have a higher boiling point than CCl4?

Yes, CBr4 has a higher boiling point than CCl4 because bromine atoms are larger and heavier than chlorine atoms, leading to stronger van der Waals forces between molecules in CBr4, requiring more energy to break these intermolecular attractions.


Is H2O more dense than CCL4?

No, CCl4 (carbon tetrachloride) is more dense than H2O (water). The density of H2O is 1 g/cm3, while the density of CCl4 is 1.59 g/cm3.

Why does H2O have a higher melting point than CCl4?

It has to do with intermolecular forces. H2O has an oxygen with two hydrogens coming off of it. This forms two hydrogen bonds, which are much stronger than the London Dispersion Forces in CCl4. (Since CCl4 is non-polar, there are no Dipole-Dipole forces).

What is more polar NH3 or CCl4 and why?

NH3 is more polar than CCl4. This is because NH3 has a higher electronegativity difference between nitrogen and hydrogen atoms, leading to a greater dipole moment. In contrast, in CCl4, the symmetry of the tetrahedral molecule cancels out the individual dipole moments of the polar C-Cl bonds, resulting in a nonpolar molecule.

Is Br2 more soluble in H2O or CCl4?

ccl4 will dissolve better in water because likes dissolves likes, H2O is non-polar an CCL4 is also non polar where as ch2cl2 is polar(different to water) there for it wont dissolve in water but CCL4 will^^This is not true: water is polar. Therefore, since CCl4 is non-polar, and CH2Cl2 is polar, and like dissolves like, CH2Cl2 is more soluble.


Is chloroform less volatile than water?

Yes, chloroform is less volatile than water because it has a higher boiling point, meaning it evaporates more slowly at room temperature.
