IMF 2 BOILING POINT (CHEESE) Flashcards
Electrostatic interactions between molecules
Intermolecular forces
Atoms within a molecule make what with each other?
Covalent and Ionic bonds
Large ionic solids are held by?
Ionic bonds
Ionic bonds are strong why?
They have formal charges
Covalent bonds in a water molecule are?
Polar
Why are water molecules polar?
Oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen thus pulling electrons in the bonds towards itself
A molecule with one side that has excess electrons and another with little electrons
Dipole
The partially negative sides of a dipole is attracted to what?
Positive Charges
The partially positive sides of a dipole is attracted to what?
Negative Charges
When dipoles interact with each other
Dipole Dipole Interactins
When dipoles generated by NH3, H20, HF interact with each other
Hydrogen Bonds
N, O, F are strong bonds because?
They’re highly electronegative
Greater than partial charge? The greater the what?
Interaction
Greater the interaction, greater the what?
The partial charge
But partial charges are not stronger than?
Formally charged particles
