Liquids and Solids Flashcards
Intermolecular Forces
Attractive or repulsive interactions between neighboring molecules
What can intermolecular forces determine?
Physical properties such as boiling point, melting point, solubility and density
Intramolecular forces
Interactions within a molecule that hold atoms together in a molecule
Types of intermolecular forces
London dispersion
Dipole- Dipole
Hydrogen Bonding
Intermolecular force type
London dispersion
Exist between all molecules
Weakest IMF
Temporary attractive force
Which intermolecular forces exist between all molecules?
London dispersion
Dipole- Dipole
Attractive forces between two polar molecules containing permanent dipoles
Permanent dipole
Molecules composed of atoms with different electronegativities
What determines the boiling point?
Strength of intermolecular force
Hydrogen bonds
Strong dipole- dipole interactions betweent a molecules containing a hydrogen atom bonded to N, O, or F
What is the rule for hydrogen bonding
Only a hydrogen bond if bonded to a Hydrogen, Oxygen, or Fluorine
Types of intramolecular forces
Polar covalent
nonpolar covalent
ionic
metallic bonds
Polar covalent
forms between two non metals of slightly different electronegativities
What type of intermolecular interactions are present in polar covalent compounds apart of?
dipole-dipole and london dispersion
Nonpolar covalent
Form between the same non metals or non metals with similiar electronegativities
What type of intermolecular interaction is present in nonpolar covalent bonds?
London dispersion
Ionic bonds
Formed between metal and non metal
Transfer of valence e’s from metal to non metal
Cation
Postively charged ion
Anion
Negativiely charged ion
Metallic bonds
Form between metal cations and the valence e’s moving freely through lattice
Which are weaker type of forces intermolecular or intramoelcular?
Intermolecular
Weakest to strongest intermolecular forces
London dispersion < dipole-dipole< H- bonding
Weakest to strongest intramolecular force
covalent< ionic < metallic (strongest)
