Trends in Physical Properties

How do the trends in physical properties for the halogens compare with those for the inert gases Compare boiling points, melting points, and atomic volumes. 

In addition to looking for data trends in physical property space using PCA and PLS, trends in chemical structure space can be delineated by viewing nonlinear maps (NLM) of two-dimensional structure descriptors such as Unity Fingerprints or topological atom pairs using tools such as Benchware DataMiner [42]. Two-dimensional NLM plots provide an overview of chemical structure space and biological activity/molecular properties are mapped in a 3rd and/or 4th dimension to look for trends in the dataset. 

The process that is outlined on the next page will help you to predict the physical properties of organic compounds by examining the intermolecular forces between molecules. As you progress through the chapter, referring back to this process will enable you to understand the reasons behind trends in physical properties. 

Research the physical properties of other elements in the same family as the tested metals and describe any trends in physical properties. Include information found concerning the alkali metals.

Describe the trends in physical properties of acid derivatives, and compare the relative reactivity of esters, thioesters, amides, nitriles, anhydrides, and acid chlorides. 

These results in conjunction with solution stabilities (W physical properties versus electronic interaction down group 6. A major problem for correlating properties of the H2 complexes is separating H2- M a bonding effects from those of BD. The ... 

Explain and predict trends in physical properties of alkanes. 

Next, we examine the periodic trends in physical properties such as the size of atoms and ions in terms of effective nuclear charge. (8.3)... 

One exception to the above mentioned trend in physical properties of immiscible blends is in the utilization of liquid crystal polymers as a reinforcement for a more flexible thermoplastic polymer. The fact that LCP s can act as reinforcing agents in a blend has led some workers to model the mechanical behavior of the blends using theories of composites. Thus, Dutta et al. (1990) showed that the moduli values of highly drawn melts that contain liquid crystal polymers can be treated effectively by a simple rule of mixtures. That is, the modulus of a blend is given by... 

Systematic trends in physical properties, with respect to the percentage of excess NCO used, are illustrated in Figs 3.15 and 3.16, which show that all physical properties reach maximum values at specific values of the initial excess of isocyanate which is usually in the 30-40% range. 

The trends in these properties occur in a regular way that would allow us to predict some of them for one element if they were known for the other elements in the group. For example, if the properties of bismuth were unknown, we would have predicted that it would have a silvery white color and a metallic luster based on the appearance of arsenic and antimony. The three elements from group VIIA(17) shown in I Figure 3.14 also demonstrate some obvious predictable trends in physical properties.

The noble gases provide excellent examples of periodic trends in physical properties. Without exception, the densities, melting points, and boiling points increase as you move down the column in the periodic table. 

Some trends in physical properties can be noted. As the number of carbon atoms in the compounds increases, so does their molecular weight. As molecular weight increases, melting and boiling points increase.
