Q

What are partial charges?

A

Partial charges occur when there is uneven sharing of electrons. The atom with greater electronegativity (EN) attracts the electrons more, making it partially negative while the other side is positive because it is losing it’s electrons.

Q

Do partial charges happen in non polar covalent bonds?

A

No, because both atoms have the same EN, so neither atom pulls each other’s electrons.

Q

What is a polar MOLECULE

A

When a compounds electron distribution is asymmetrical

24
Q

What is a the difference between a polar bond and molecule

A

A polar bond is when two non metals (different) unevenly share electrons. A polar molecule is when atoms shape is asymmetrical.

25
Q

What are the molecular shapes?

A

Tetrahedral, Linear, Bent, Trigonal Pyramidal, Trigonal Planar

26
Q

What are inter molecular forces?

A

Forces BETWEEN molecules holding them together.

27
Q

The strength of IMF increases with:

A

Polarity, Mass, Electron #

28
Q

IMF influences

A

Boiling Pt, Melting Pt, Phase

29
Q

What is hydrogen bonding found between?

A

Found between atoms containing Hydrogen and Fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen.

30
Q

Hydrogen bonding is…

A
  • Not an actual bond, just a force between atoms

- Strongest IMF

31
Q

Examples of hydrogen bonding

A

H2O, NH3

32
Q

What does hydrogen bonding do?

A

Strong hydrogen bonding gives water it’s cohesive properties and high boiling points.

33
Q

The exception to the EN 1.7 rule:

A

Any group 1 or group 2 metal bonded to hydrogen is ionic

34
Q

Polyatomic Ions

A

Some ionic compounds that have more than 2 elements contain polyatomic ions (TABLE E)

35
Q

How to draw molecular (covalent) lewis dot diagrams

A

1: Add an 8 for each element each compound but 2 for H
2: Add up all valence electrons for a second #
3: subtract valence # from octet number
4: Divide by two (that’s # of bonds)
5: Draw and label extra with dots

36
Q

Tip for molecular (covalent) lewis dot diagrams

A

Hydrogen only forms one bond!

37
Q

A

NO!

47
Q

Anything with hydrogen bonding has:

A

High boiling pts and cohesive properties

48
Q

Combustion

A
  • Buring something and exothermic

- Water and CO2 produced

49
Q

Synthesis

A

2 or more substances combine to form one larger one

ex: A + B ——-> AB

50
Q

Decomposition

A

A compound is broken down into two or more substances

ex: AB ——> A + B

51
Q

Synthesis and Decomposition are

A

OPPOSITE!

52
Q

Single Replacement

A

Reactants have an element and compound and if the element is more reactive, it will replace one in the compound

ex: AB + C ——> A + BC

53
Q

Double Replacement

A

2 compounds combine and 2 new ones are formed

ex: AB + CD ——-> AC + BD

54
Q

How do you use table J to figure out if single replacement will happen?

A

More active (higher up in scale) will replace less reactive metal in compound

55
Q

What do we use Table F for?

A

To see if a compound is soluble or insolube
