Q

origin of london forces (4)

A

-as a result of random movement of electrons, a temporary, instantaneous dipole is set up in one molecule
-this causes the electrons of the neighbouring molecule to disperse when molecules come close to one another
-this results in an induced dipole forming
-the 2 temporary dipoles are then able to electrostatically attract each other

Q

origin of dipole dipole forces

A

-as a result of polar bonds (an unequal sharing of an electron pair as a result of END) and permanent asymmetrical distribution, these molecules are permanently polar
- and experience an attractive electrostatic force between the slightly positive side of one molecule and the slightly negative side of another molecule

Q

origin of hydrogen bond forces (3)

A

-within a molecule, a hydrogen atom must be covalently bonded to a small highly electronegative (N,O,F) atom (producing a greater END difference than in other polar bonds) with at least one pair of electrons
-within a molecule, a small highly electronegative atom attracts the bonded pair of electrons away from the covalently bonded hydrogen atom
-therefore, a naked proton is exposed and is attracted to a lone pair of electrons on another small highly electronegative atom of a neighbouring molecule , hence the forces exist between molecules

24
Q

why are hydrogen bonds stronger than dipole dipole forces

A

-large END in bonds of molecule, making highly polar molecules with high charge density on exposed H atom
- the small atoms form molecules that can get close together and thus the forces act over shorter distances

33
Q

atomic/covalent bonds

A

many strong covalent bonds between atoms

34
Q

ionic structures properties

A

ionic bonding
structure made up by many,strong electrostatic forces of attraction between cations and anions -melting point determined by strength of these forces
brittle- shift in arrangement of ions brings like charges alongside each other which results in force of repulsion which causes solid to fracture
can’t conduct in solid state (cations +anions not free to move to carry charge)
- molten+ aqueous

35
Q

metallics structures

A

metallic bonding
structure made up by many strong electrostatic forces of attraction between positive kernels + delocalised valence electrons
good electrical conductors - delocalised e-‘s can move over positive kernels
malleable-sheets of cations can slide past over each other but remains held together by electrostatic forces of attraction between delocalised electrons and cations

36
Q

A

sheets of cations can slide over e-‘s but remiannheld tiegther by forces

37

41
Q

A

electrostatic forces of attraction in an ionic bond

42
Q

what do MP+BP indicate

A

indicators of collective strength of forces holding substances together (increased strength - more energy to overcome forces - higher MP/BP)

43
Q

intramolecular bond

A

bond between atoms w/in molecules

44
Q

heating in molecular substances

A

as substance is heated-temp +average Ek of molecules increases- more energy provided to overcome come/break forces of attraction between molecules-changing physical properties of substances
( intramolecular/covalent bonds not broken by heating , only IMF forces broken or electrostatic forces of attraction overcome)

45
Q

factors that influence strength of IMFs

A

-the type of IMF force (predom. and add. london force)
-no. of electrons in molecule (indicated by molar mass) which affects size of temporary dipoles formed which influences strength of london forces
-no of IMF forces which influences strength of hydrogen bond forces
-interacting surface area of molecules which affects london forces in organic substances

46

-identity types of IMFs present in both molecules
-compare relative strengths of IMF influenced by diff factors
-“more energy is required to overcome the collective stronger IMFs”
-conclude which substance has higher or lower BP/MP

47
Q

what does phase of substance depend on

A

strength of IMF forces that hold it together

48

49
Q

phases:gases

A

no or very weak IMFs between molecules

50
Q

what happens when a PD is applied

A

51
Q

what determines density

A

mass/volume (constant for substance at any temp) (molar mass indicator of density)
IMFs between molecules (greater attractive force= greater density, relative strength of IMFs in substance =greater density)
greater mass=greater density (at constant volumes)

52

IMFs in each substance must be similar in nature and magnitude

53
Q

solubility of covalent compounds

dependent on polarity of solute + solvent (like)
nature+ magnitude of forces between molecules of each substance ( like)
predominant IMF of solute important

54
Q

how to collect non polar gases

A

downward displacement of water
gas bubbled through up turned cylinder filled w water
gas rises through H20 and is collected, H2O pushed down

55
Q

collect polar gases

A

upward + downward displacement of air
(diff gases have diff densities relative to air which is mostly nitrogen)
higher density than air -air pushed up, gas sinks
lower density than air- air pushed down,gas rises
