BONDING Flashcards
Dipole dipole attractions
Attraction between polar molecules
Partial neg – partial positive
Weaker than covalent bonds
HCl
Hydrogen bonding
Fluorine Oxygen Nitrogen
Partial charges stronger than expected
Elements: high Electronegativity, small atomic radius
Stronger than dipole dipole, & dispersion
Weaker than covalent bonds
Dispersion forces
Exist in ALL molecules
Only intermolecular forces in NONPOLAR molecules
When a symmetrical molecule losses it’s symmetry it forms a temporary dipole, partial neg repels adjacent atom=shift position
Nonpolar molecules exist in the liquid/ solid state under HIGH pressure & LOW temps
The strength of Dispersion forces INCREASE with
INCREASE molecular size
DECREASE distance between molecules
Dispersion forces DECREASE in strength due to
DECREASE in molecular size
INCREASE in distance between molecules
Halogens
Diatomic/ nonpolar molecules
Down a group, weakest – strongest attraction
Molecular size/ electron # INCREASES
Dispersion forces INCREASE with strength
2 gasses, 1 liquid, 1 solid
Noble gases
Dispersion forces
Monatomic nonpolar molecules
Moving down a group #electrons INCREASES
Dispersion forces INCREASES
Boiling point INCREASES
Molecule Ion Attractions
Mostly polar, WEAK nonpolar
Polar attracted to ion respectively (partial positive to partial negative)
Ionic compounds generally dissolve in polar solvents
Crystalline structure destroyed by molecule ion attractions results in hydrated ions
Hydrated ion
Completely surrounded by water
Property indicators
Ionic- nonconductors as solids, EXCELLENT as liquid or aqueous
Molecular- IMF (weak bonds) LOW melting point
Network of solids- VERY HIGH melting point
Metallic- EXCELLENT conductors as solids
Ionic solid
Ionic bonds
High melting point
Tends to be soluble
*Not great conductors as solids but AMAZING conductors as liquid / aqueous (free moving ions)
Molecular solid
IMFs
LOW MELTING POINT
Tends to be insoluble
Nonconductors as solids
Network solid
Series of covalent bonds= network bonding
VERY HIGH MELTING POINT
Insoluble
Nonconductors
Metallic Solid
Metallic bonds
“Delocalized electrons”
High melting point
Tend to be insoluble
EXCELLENT CONDUCTORS AS SOLIDS
electrons- free moving charged particles
IMFs
Intermolecular Forces of attraction
