Physics Chap7 Flashcards
Definite volume and definite shape
solids
Attempts to describe all the states of matter and the conversion between states
Kinetic-molecular theory of matter
Solids intermolecular forces are
strong enough to hold molecules rigidly in place with respect to each other
definite volume but no definite shape
liquids
strong enough to hold molecules in a condensed phase, not strong enough to prevent molecules from sliding past each other
intermolecular forces of liquids
fluids have the ability to
flow (liquids and gases)
Neither a definite shape nor volume
gases (will expand to fill the available space)
are essentially zero between molecules
gas intermolecular forces (ideally independent molecules)
what determines how molecules interact?
intermolecular forces (impact the macroscopic properties of a sample directly mostly)
What determines intermolecular forces?
chemical bonding
Molecules, atoms, and oppositely charged are _______ each other, but not to close. ________
attracted(Coulomb’s Law), REPULSION
octet rule
atoms add, remove, or share electrons so as to wind up with 8 VALENCE electrons
formed between metals and nonmetals. metals tend to form cations
ionic compounds
nonmetals tend to form
anions
which is stronger, ionic bonds or covalent bonds?
ionic bonds(almost always solids)
ionic bond results from ________ attraction between _______ charged ions.
coulombic, oppositely
on the periodic table the number of valence electrons is equal to
the group number
covalent bonds result from
sharing of electrons
The intermolecular forces that operate between the molecules in a sample, all of which are caused by how electrons are arranged in the molecule.
VSEPR Theory
What is the most electronegative element?
flourine
If two atoms of identical electronegativity are bonded together, the bond is
non-polar
If two atoms of different electronegativity are bonded together, the bond is
polar, the electrons spend more time around the more electronegative atom (this creates partial charges)
Three main IM forces
dipolar, hydrogen bonding, and London forces
Attraction between the opposite(partial) charges of polar molecules
dipole-dipole attraction
attraction between a hydrogen bonded directly to an O, N, and F and another electronegative atom
hydrogen bonding
attraction between an ionic and a polar molecule
ion dipole attraction
