Intermolecular Forces Flashcards
What types of molecules have electrons that ARE shared equally/the electrons are NOT moved in one particular direction (ex: CF4)
Non-polar molecules
ALL hydrocarbons are what (ex: C3H3)?
Non-polar
What types of molecules have electrons that are NOT shared equally/the electrons ARE moved in one specific direction (ex: CHF3)?
Polar molecules
What do polar molecules tend to be?
Dipole
What are forces between molecules that can determine the property of a substance called?
Intermolecular forces (IMF)
Which type of IMF is being described?:
- Everything has _______
- is the WEAKEST type of IMF
- single atoms only have _______
- ex: Kr (Krypton)
London Dispersion
Which type of IMF is being described?:
- occurs between POLAR molecules
- creates PERMANENT ______ (they will always stick together after initial attraction)
- has stronger IMF than London dispersion
- ex: 2 HBr molecules
Dipole-Dipole
Which type of IMF is being described?:
- not really a traditional bond
- occurs between specific atoms (O-H, F-H, N-H)
- partial charges are more EXTREME than dipole-dipole
- stronger IMF than dipole-dipole
- ex: 2 H2O atoms
Hydrogen “bonding”
Which type of IMF is being described?:
- half IONIC and half DIPOLE
- charges are FULL, not partial
- STRONGEST IMF
- ex: Na+ in H20
Ion-Dipole
For IMF, larger charges equal what?
Stronger attraction
For IMF, longer distance equals what?
Weaker attraction
What is the energy needed to INCREASE the surface area (or break the “skin”) (ex: water bubbling over a cup)?
Surface tension
What is the relationship between IMF and surface tension (effect of IMF)?
Higher IMF= Higher surface tension (b/c of intense attraction)
What is the resistance of a liquid to flow (thick substance)?
Viscosity
What is the relationship between IMF and viscosity (effect of IMF)?
Higher IMF= Higher viscosity (b/c they want to stick together)
