Q

Electronegativity

A

Electronegativity is the relative tendency of an atom in a covalent bond in a molecule to attract electrons in a covalent bond to itself.

Factors:increases across as proton no. Increases and atomic radius increases as the electrons are pulled in more
It decreases down a group because distance between the nucleus and outer electron increases and the shielding increases

Intermolecular bonding

A

Induced dipole-dipole interactions:All molecular substances (not in ionic).In any molecule the electrons are moving randomly and constantly this causes electron density to fluctuate adn parts of the molecule becomes more or less negative .These temporary dipoles induces dipoles in neighbouring molecules,called induced dipoles.The more electrons,the stronger.
Permanent dipole-dipole:polar molecules,stronger,higher b.p.,they occur in addition to London forces.

Q

Anomalies in period 2&3 f.i.e

A

Na has lower f.i.e than Neon because Na is more shielded ,electron easier to remove.
Small drop between Mg and Al because Al is starting to fill up 3p whereas Mg has full 3s?Ekectrons in 3p are slightly easier to remove because 3p electron are higher in energy and shielded .
Small drop from P to S.Sulphur has 4 electron in 3p and 4th electron is starting to pair.When the second electron is added to a 3p orbital there is a slight repulsion between which makes the second electron easier to remove.

A

This occurs when forward and backward reactions are occurring at equal rates in a closed system and the concentration of reactants and products do not change.

53
Q

Effect of increasing temperature in equilibrium

A

If temperature increased (decreased) the equilibrium will shift to oppose this and move in the endothermic (exotgermic) direction to reduce (increases)temperature by absorbing heat.
The position of the equilibrium will shift to the …
Giving a lower yield of …..

54
Q

Effect of pressure in equilibrium

A

Increasing (decreasing) pressure will cause the equilibrium to shift towards the side either fewer (more)moles of gas to oppose the change and thereby reduce (increase) the pressure .
Position will shift to …
Giving higher/less yield of…

55
Q

Effect of concentration on equilibrium

A

I2 + 2OH- <———->I- + IO- + H2O (colourless)
(Brown)

Increasing concentration of OH- ions causes the equilibrium to shift to oppose this and move in the forward direction to remove OH- ions.The position of equilibrium will shift toward the right giving higher yields of I- and OH-.
Adding H+ ions reacts with the OH- ions and reduces their concentration so the equilibrium shifts back to the left giving brown colour.
