L1 Intermolecular Forces Flashcards
The ease with which the electron distribution around an atom or molecule can be distorted is called the what
Polarizability
It is a measure of an atoms ability to attract shared electrons to itself
Electronegativity
What rule is used to identify electronegativity differences can be used to predict if a bond will become violent polar covalent or ionic
Rule of thumb
Bonding electrons shared equally between two atoms no charges on atoms
Nonpolar covalent bond
Bonding electrons shared and equally between two atoms partially charges on atoms
Polar covalent bond
Complete transfer of one or more valence electrons full charges on resulting ions
Ionic bond
This is what all atoms are trying to achieve and this is a bond resulting from the attraction of nuclei for electrons
Stable octet
The protons in one nucleus are attracted to the electrons of another atom
Electronegativity
The electrons in the outermost shell or energy level of an atom
Valence electron
Attractive or repulsive forces between molecules in a substance the it also determine most physical and chemical properties of matter
Intermolecular forces
Intra molecular forces are stronger than inter-molecular forces
Because it takes more energy to break apart a molecule covalent bond that overcoming intermolecular forces in between the atoms
Weakest to strongest intermolecular forces
London dispersion forces
dipole dipole forces
hydrogen bond
ion dipole forces
This is present between all molecules whether they are polar or non-polar in a large atom or molecule the valence electrons our father from the nuclei done in a smaller atom or molecule they are less likely held and can more easily form temporary dipoles
London dispersion forces
It is the east in which the electron distribution around an atom or molecule can be distorted
Polarizability
This forces tend to be more stronger between molecules that are easily polarized and weaker between molecules that are not easily polarized
London dispersion forces
This occur when the partial charges formed within one molecule are attracted to an opposite partial charge in a nearby molecule this create attraction between molecules of a substance and a non-polar molecule turns into an induced dipole when it interacts with a dipole molecule
Dipole dipole forces
This is bound to a highly electronegative atom and example of these are nitrogen oxygen and fluorine that same hydrogen is then electrostatically attracted to a loan pair on the nitrogen oxygen or fluorine on adjacent molecules it is a strong dipole-dipole forces
Hydrogen bond
Attractive force that results from the electrostatic attraction between an ion and the neutral molecule that has a dipole it is most commonly found in solutions especially important for solutions of ionic compounds in polar liquids
Ion dipole forces
