Intermolecular Forces Flashcards
What is the difference between inter and intramolecular force?
Inter is between molecules and intra is within molecules
Where do intermolecular forces originate?
Interactions between charges, partial charges, and temporary charges
What is stronger intermolecular forces or bonding forces?
Bonding forces
What is an ion-induced dipole force?
When an ion approaches a non polar molecule it creates a small induced dipole
What does the magnitude of ion-induced dipole depend on?
Charge of ion and the polarizability of the atom (how easy electrons move), polarizabilty also depends on size of electron cloud
What intermolecular force is present in all neutral atoms?
Dispersion force (LDF)
What is a dispersion force?
Electrons are not always uniformly distributed, sometimes creates small positive and negative end
What does an instantaneous dipole on atom atom do?
Induces dipoles on neighboring atoms which attract each other
What types of molecules have stronger dispersion forces?
Molecules with a lot of electrons and ones that are elongated (more space for interaction)
What force exists in all polar molecules?
Dipole-dipole
What are dipole dipole forces?
Permanent dipole caused by difference in EN
What is the effect on the boiling point as the dipole moment increase?
Boiling point increases
Will a polar liquid mix with another polar liquid? What about non polar!
Yes
No
What are hydrogen bonds?
Hydrogens bound directly to a highly electronegative atom can form weak bonds with the atom in a adjacent molecule
What atoms does hydrogen bonding occur with?
Hydrogen and fluorine, oxygen, and nitrogen
What is dipole induced dipole force?
The force between molecules with a permanent dipole and a non polar one
What is ion dipole force?
Occur when an ionic compound is mixed with a polar compound, important for aqueous solutions of ionic compounds
What is the strongest intermolecular force?
Ion dipole force
