Q

What requirements are needed for metallic bonding?

A

The metal = low ionisation energies
(metal readily gives up their e- —> positive metal ions)
The metal = vacant valence orbitals
(e- move freely between overlapping orbitals)

Q

List the intermolecular forces from strongest to weakest

A

H bonds
Dipole-dipole
Dispersion forces

20
Q

What is the only non-polar intermolecular force?

A

Dispersion forces

21
Q

How do london dispersion forces form?

A

1) e- = constantly moving in their orbitals
2) at any given moment = more e- on one side of the atom / molecule —> instantaneous temporary dipole
3) this dipole induces anther in a neighbouring molecule
4) Attraction between these dipoles = a weak intermolecular force

Where do london dispersion forces occur?

A

Between all types of molecules

23
Q

What does the strength of london dispersion forces depend on?

A
