Polarity

Question 1

Bond Polarity

Answer 1

Dependent on difference in electronegativity between the two atoms

Question 2

Polarity of molecule

Answer 2

Dependent on overall distribution of bond dipoles around the central atom

Question 3

If it is a compound (ionic or metallic) instead of a molecule…

Answer 3

No intermolecular bonding present

Question 4

If the molecule is non-polar…

Answer 4

Only temporary dipole-dipole attractions

Question 5

If the molecule is polar and doesn’t contain H-F, H-N, and H-O bonds…

Answer 5

Temporary and permanent dipole-dipole attractions

Question 6

If the molecule is polar and contains H-F, H-N, and H-O bonds…

Answer 6

Temporary, permanent dipole-dipole attractions AND hydrogen bonds.

Question 7

Molecules with strongest intermolecular bonding will have the….

Answer 7

Highest melting/boiling points which is because they take the most energy to break

Question 8

Strength of bonds:

Answer 8

H bonds>permanent>temporary

Question 9

Larger molecules will have stronger temporary dipole-dipole forced than smaller molecules. True or false?

Answer 9

True
