Intermolecular Forces Flashcards
1
Q
london dispersion
A
present in ALL molecules, but only force b/w NP
attraction that becomes TEMPORARY diploles
2
Q
dipole dipole
A
only in polar molecules, force of attraction with PERMANENT dipoles
attraction b/w POS. and NEG. ends of dipoles
3
Q
hydrogen bonding
A
highly polar molecules
attraction b/w H ATOMS and LONE PAIRS on ADJACENT molecules
4
Q
diff b/w chem bond and imf
A
chem bond forms b/w atoms, imf forms b/w molecules, imf weaker and less energy required in their formation
5
Q
diff bw temporary and permanent dipole
A
temp: electrons are denser on one end of molecule
perm: when there is a pos. and neg. end from a polar bond
