intermolecular forces and solids Flashcards
Intermolecular forces are____
forces that occur between molecules
Intramolecular forces are ______
forces that occur in molecules
The strongest intermolecular force is
ion-ion force
What intermolecular force binds ions into crystals?
ion-ion force
Which is stronger: intermolecular or intramolecular?
intramolecular is stronger
What does ion-ion bonding depend on?
It depends on the charge and distance. The higher that charge, the stronger the bond, and the larger the distance, the weaker the bond.
What is a dipole?
A dipole is a permanent distortion in electron that causes partial charges on different ends or poles of the molecule.
The strength of an ion-dipole is dependent on?
The strength of an ion-dipole is dependent on the charge and the radius of the atoms/molecules
heat of hydration
the energy it takes to add water to a system
relationship between heat of hydration and strength of ion-dipole
the stronger the ion-dipole, the more heat of hydration is present
Dipole-dipole interaction
this occurs between a dipole molecule and another dipole. The positive end of one orients itself so that it attracts the negative of the other.
strength of dipole-dipole depends on?
the strength depends on the magnitude. The bigger the dipole, the stronger the interaction
Hydrogen bonding
a hydrogen bond is a special type of dipole-dipole. This occurs when hydrogen bonds to a very electronegative atom/molecules that take so much of its electron that it is almost a proton.
What electronegative atoms/molecules can hydrogen bond?
Fluorine, oxygen, and nitrogen (FON)
Relationship between melting/boiling points with the strength of interaction
The stronger the interaction, the higher the boiling or melting point.
