Q

As electronegativity increases

A

the pull of the electron increases

17
Q

When two atoms have the same electronegativity they are considered to be

A

nonpolar

18
Q

When atoms do not have equally shared electrons they are

A

polar

19
Q

Dipoles

A

are partially negative and partially positive charges

20
Q

Trace Elements

A

an element that is only needed in very small quantities by an organisms

21
Q

Two examples of trace elements include

A

Fe and I

22
Q

one amu is

A

1.7 x 10^-24

23
Q

energy is defined as

A

the capacity to cause change

24
Q

the atom who takes the electron is being

A

reduced

25
Q

the atom who’s electron is being taken is being

A

oxydized

26
Q

intramolecular forces

A

work within the molecule

27
Q

intermolecular forces are

A

the attractions between other molecules

28
Q

which is stronger intra or intermolecular forces?

A

intramolecular bonds

29
Q

these are the three types of intramolecular bonds

A

dipole-dipole, dipole-induced dipole, and freak dipole-induced dipole

30
Q

dipole dipoles are ____ and an example is ____

A

partial attraction between molecules, water

31
Q

what is an induced dipole?

A

these are temporarily dipoles for a split second because they repel against the other dipole’s partial charges.

32
Q

another name for a freak dipole is

A

longdon dispension dipole

33
Q

explain the freak dipole

A

when electrons spend more time around one atom or another, creating a partial negative that can freak out a little, creating a dipole with a slight attraction.
