Melting point and boiling point

Rucete ✏ Chemistry In a Nutshell


Melting point and boiling point | In a nutshell


1 Melting point and boiling point, along with heat of vaporization, heat of fusion, density, are affected by the structure and bonding force of the elements.

2 The melting points and boiling points of the period 3 elements described below are common periodic tendencies.

3 From Na to Al
 1. The elements are metals.
 2. The melting points and boiling points increase
 --> the atoms become smaller
 --> increases effective nuclear charge (effective nuclear charge)
 --> the strengths of the metal-metal bonds increase.

4 Silicon(Si)
 High melting and boiling points
 1. Macromolecular
 2. Strong covalent bonds
 3. A significant amount of energy is required to break this bond.

5 Phosphorus(P), Sulfur(S), Chlorine(Cl)
 1. Molecular substances
 2. Calculate melting points by the strengths of van der Waals' force and the size of the                      molecules.
