Q

What happens to electronegativity as you go across the period?

A

Electronegativity would increase as atoms get bigger but similar shielding, therefore stronger nuclear charge and so stronger attraction b/w nucleus and shared pair of electrons

Q

What happens to electronegativity as you go down a group?

A

As you go down a group, atom size increases and so nuclear charge does as well, but because there is increased shielding there is overall a weaker attraction (less electronegative)

Q

What is the difference between an induced dipole vs polar molecules?

29
Q

What kind of crystal structure occurs in magnesium?

A

30
Q

Describe and explain the features of a giant ionic lattice

A

High melting point - oppositely charged ions held together by strong electrostatic attractions
Brittle - if a layer shifts, similarly charged ions are to close, repel and cause the structure to break open
Most can dissolve in water - +ve and -ve ions can interact with polar water molecules
Can enable a current if dissolved/melted - electrons free to move, can create flow of ions

31
Q

Describe and explain the features of a simple molecular crystal

A

Strong covalent bonds in molecules
Weak intermolecular forces between
Low melting points
Don’t conduct - no free moving electrons

32
Q

Describe and explain the features of a giant covalent diamond structure

A

Tetrahedral shape
Hard -v. strong covalent holding together
High mp - strong covalent
Can’t conduct - no free moving electrons

33
Q

Describe and explain the features of a giant covalent graphite structure

A

Each C covalently bonded to 3 Cs
Soft - weak VdW between planes, so able to slide past
Can conduct across a plane but not between layers (delocalised within plane)

34
Q

Describe and explain the features of a giant metallic lattice

A

High melting point - strong attraction between ions and delocalised electrons
Dense - same as above -pulls it close
Can conduct - delocalised electrons
Good heat conductors - same as above
Malleable - layers can slide over each other
