What is the reason for surface tension?

Choose the correct statements related to gases. a) distance between molecule is very high. b) The freedom of movement of molecules is very low. c) Attractive force between the molecules is very low. d) The energy of molecules is very high.

The boiling points of alkenes depends on the magnitude of attractive force between their molecules. Three alkenes are listed below. Identify the alkene with maximum boiling point. Justify. Isopentane, n-pentane, neopentane.

Assertion : The solution of carbon tetrachloride in heptane shows positive deviation from Raoult's law. Reason : The forces of attraction between unlike molecules are stronger than those between like molecules in the solution.

A high pressure and low temperature attractive forces between molecules become significant, the volume of a real gas is less than that of an ideal gas. Comment on the fact that there is a deviation from ideal behaviour at high pressure and low temperature.

Assertion : The boiling point of chloroform-acetone solution is larger than expected from ideal behaviour. Reason : The forces of attraction between unlike molecules are stronger than those between like molecules in the solution. This results in lower vapour pressure as compared to an ideal solution which is responsible for the higher boiling point.
