bonding & melting points Flashcards
1
Q
covalent bonding:
A
- shared pair of electrons between non-metals
2
Q
dative covalent bond:
A
when both e- are shared by the same atom
3
Q
permanent dipole-dipole:
A
- occur between polar molecules (have a difference in electronegativity)
4
Q
induced dipole (london, vanderwalls)
A
- occur in all molecules
- random movement causes temporary dipoles
5
Q
h - bonding
A
- H between O, F, N
6
Q
ionic bonding:
A
- electrostatic forces of attraction between positive and negative charged
7
Q
metallic bonding:
A
- delocalised electrons with electrostatic attractions between the positive metal and electrons
8
Q
What affects the strength of ionic bonds?
A
- charge density of the cation (charge and ionic radii)
- size of the anion
9
Q
what affects boiling temp:
A
- amount of electrons –> amount of London forces
- compare electronegativity
- compare the intermolecular forces
- discuss energy required to overcome
10
Q
how does branching affect boiling temp:
A
- less points of contact
- less London forces
