Chapter 11 - Physical Properties and Chemical Reactivity!! Flashcards
boiling
liquid to gas phase change
melting
solid to liquid phase change
how does melting/boiling happen?
energy disrupts intermolecular forces present
intermolecular forces def and different types
electrostatic forces that occur between atoms, ions, molecules
dipole - dipole, hydrogen bonding, london (dispersion) forces
are covalent bonds broken in melting or boiling?
NO!!!
solubility
the ability to form a solution with a substance
like dissolves like (ex non polar x non polar or polar x polar)
what happens when a substance is dissolved in a liquid?
ions are separated and interact with solvent molecules.
ionic compound dissolves if the resulting intermolecular forces strong enough to overcome forces of attraction between ions
dipole - dipole interaction
electrostatic attraction between partial positive charge one molecule and partial negative on other
higher boiling point than non polar, middle of strengths
can be attractive (opposite charges) or repulsive (same charges)
attractive results in greater coulombic force therefore stronger than repulsive
hydrogen bond
dipole dipole interation between a hydrogen atom and N, O, or F (all very electronegative atoms)
the H-N H-O H-F bonds are SUPER polar and interact with other electronegative atoms to form a hydrogen bond
Strongest intermolecular force, but not as strong as covalent
london force OR dispersion force OR london dispersion force
interactions between instantaneous dipoles, which could influence the distribution of atoms in adjacent atoms, resulting in induced dipole in the other atom and temporary electrostatic attraction between them
weaker of the intermolecular forces, could be more significant for large species
occurs in ALL atoms, ions, molecules etc
polarizability
ease with which electron distribution in atom or molecule is distorted
larger atoms are more distortable because held less tightly by nucleus, therefore london dispersion forces are stronger and more energy is required to interupt intermolecular forces therefore higher boiling point
van der waals forces
include dipole-dipole, hydrogen, and london forces
what distance do dipole dipole interactions need based on r (distance between centres)
1/(r^3)
what distance to london (dispersion) forces need based on r (distance between centres)
1/(r^6)
how does hydrogen bonding in h2o affect the way ice floats on water?
when solid, water forms an ordered crystal structure in which hydrogen bonds are held still and are slightly further apart than in liquid water
this means ice is less dense than water and thus floats on top
deprotation
removal of a proton (or hydron or hydrogen cation) from a Bronsted-Lowry acid
