NEETChemistryThermodynamics (C)
What factors influence the magnitude of the enthalpy change during phase transformations?
Options
- AThe strength of intermolecular interactions
- BThe color of the substance
- CThe size of the substance
- DThe shape of the substance
Correct answer
A. The strength of intermolecular interactions
Step-by-step solution
The magnitude of the enthalpy change during phase transformations depends on the strength of the intermolecular interactions in the substance undergoing the phase transformation. Substances with stronger intermolecular interactions typically require more heat to change phase.
