water solubility for each intramolecular bond?
ionic: water-soluble
polar-covalent: water-soluble
non-polar covalent: non-water-soluble
electrical conductivity for each intramolecular bond?
ionic: yes, electrolyte
polar-covalent: no, non-electrolyte
non-polar covalent: no, non-electrolyte
electrolyte
substances that conduct electricity in the molten state or in solution
when are imfs broken/formed?
broken during boiling/melting, formed during freezing/condensing
which properties do imfs impact?
physical. i.e. changes of state, solubility
which states are imfs strong in?
liquids + solids. almost non-existent in gases except extreme conditions. (tht’s why there r gas laws)
relationship between imf and state at room temp?
strong imf = solid at room temp
weak imf = gas at room temp
order from strong-weak of imfs
- ionic/covalent bonds
- ion-dipole (ion+dipole)
- hydrogen bonds (H w/ NOF)
- dipole-dipole (polar molecules)
- london dispersion (non-polar, but exist in all molecules)
polarizability + what impacts it
“ease with which an electron cloud can be deformed.” larger (more electrons) = more polarizable
PEN rule
protons = atomic number
electrons = atomic number - charge
neutrons = atomic mass - atomic number
atomic mass unit
- calculated w/ magnetic field
- approx. mass of 1 proton
- 1/12 mass of C-12 atom
isotope
- same atom have diff. amnts of neutrons/protons
- each occur in abundance, e.g. 12% means 12% will be that isotope in a sample
radioisotope
- has unstable nucleus
- has radioactive decay
radioactive decay
- process by which an unstable nucleus rearranges itself
- nucleus can throw out protons/neutrons that are imbalanced
electron configuation + wht it’s based off of
- an atoms arrangement of electrons around the nucleus to have the lowest possible energy bc thats the most stable state
- stability based on atomic radii, ionization energy, electron affinities, and electronegativity
atomic radii
- size of atom
- measured in picometres (pm) or angstroms (A w/ degree) from centre of nucleus to outermost electron
wht’s atomic radii influenced by?
- energy level: high energy levels are further from nucleus
- charge on nucleus: more protons=more pull on electrons
- shielding effect
shielding effect
electrons in inner shells (kernel electrons) shield the valence electrons from the positive charge of nucleus, so the valence electrons can move further out = bigger atom. +like charges repel, so kernel electrons repel the valence
ions
charged atoms, happen when there’s more or less electrons than protons (imbalance)
cation
- positively charged ions formed as a result of loss of electron(s)
- metals usually form cations
-smaller than neutral atom bc. less electrons mean the positive nucleus is more potent
anion
- negatively charged ions formed as a result of gain of electron(s)
- non-metals usually form anions
-larger than neutral atom bc. extra electrons repel each other
ionization energy
(wht does a low IE mean)
- amount of energy required to completely remove an electron from a gaseous atom
- low IE = easy to take electron = more reactive
what impacts ionization energy
(wht causes big/small IE)
- bigger IE w/ bigger charge of nucleus
- smaller IE if valence electrons are far away from nucleus
- exception: filled and half-filled (4 & 8) valence shells have high IE
- shielding effect
electron affinity
- energy change associated with adding an electron to a gaseous atom: typically negative due to release of energy
- easiest to add to halogens
wht does a negative electron affinity cause
atom becomes more stable and thus releases a great deal of energy when it gains an electron
- decrease in potential energy
wht does a positive electron affinity cause
atom becomes less stable and thus gains energy when it gains an electron
- increase in potential energy
which group has the highest electron affinity?
halogens: release the most energy when they gain an electron, meaning they become very stable
electronegativity
tendency for an atom to attract electrons to itself when it is chemically combined with another element
relationship between electronegativity and electron affinity?
atoms with large negative electron affinity have large electronegativity: large electronegativity means it pulls the electron toward it
trends of each periodic trend?
electron affinity, ionization energy, electronegativity: increase right and up
atomic radius: increase left and down
