What is the definition of London Dispersion Forces
A
Temporary and can form between a atom and any molecule (weakest)
2
Q
What is the definition of Dipole-Dipole Forces
A
Stronger strength stronger attractions
3
Q
What is the definition of Hydrogen Bonds
A
Stronger Dipole-Dipole interactions (Contains a OH bond)
4
Q
Rank Inter-molecular forces from least to greatest
A
London DF -> Dipole-Dipole -> Hydrogen Bonds
5
Q
How do you determine if a molecule is polar or non-polar based on the structure
A
If its asymmetrical then it is polar and if its symmetrical then its non-polar
6
Q
What is the difference between polar and non-polar
A
