Q

How do you count formal charge

A

count each bond as one and each electron as one and any extra from expected (from periodic table) is - and less is +

16
Q

How do more bonds affect the length

A

more bonds = stronger = shorter

17
Q

Rules for determining to major resonance contributor

A

filled octet, minimum charge, positive charge on less electronegative atom and negative on most electronegative atom

18
Q

pi bond and lone pairs should be in what relation to each other

A

next to each other

19
Q

When averaging bond length, the number favors what

A

favors the majority resonance structure

20
Q

London Forces

A

interactions between electron clouds

21
Q

How does surface area affect melting and boiling point

A

higher surface area, higher mp and bp

22
Q

Dipole-dipole

A

positive end of one dipole interacts with the negative end of another dipole

23
Q

Hydrogen bonding

A

very strong dipole-dipole interaction when H bonds with N, O, or F

24
Q

How does H bonding affect bp

A

makes it go up

25
Q

How does symmetry affect mp

A

makes it go up

26
Q

What does hydrogen bonding have to do with solubility

A

compound will be soluble if it has both hydrogen donors and acceptors and 5 carbons or less; if they have only acceptors they will be soluble if they have 3 carbons or less
