Intermolecular Forces Flashcards
0
Q
London forces
A
induced dipole forces
oppositely charges ends of the 2 dipoles attract each other
occurs between 2 non-polar atoms
melting point increases while the molar mass increases and surface area
1
Q
intermolecular force
A
a weak force of attraction between the molecules of a substance or between the atoms of a nobel gas
van der Waals force
2
Q
dipole-dipole
A
attractive forces between polar molecules
3
Q
hydrogen bond
A
special dipole-dipole
forms when:
1.) hydrogen atoms bond covalently to a small atom with a high - electronegativity
2.) polar molecules are formed which have relativly large S+ and S - - charges
