Unit 2-MS2 Flashcards
What is a chemical bond?
-Result of attraction between nucleus and valence electrons of another atom
What type of bond is present between Fluorine (4.0) and chlorine (3.0)?
Polar covalent Bond
What is the type of bond between Oxygen (2.5) and Carbon (2.5)?
Pure covalent/Nonpolar Covalent
What is the hybridization of a water molecule?
sp3
Which bond is free to rotate and is the only bond present in single bonds?
Sigma Bond
Which bond is not free to rotate and consists of 2 lobes?
Pi Bond
What are some qualities of metallic bonds and what is the reason for them?
- Good conductors:Electrons free to move throughout structure
- Malleable/ductile:Bond structure same in all directions
What is Bond energy? How does it relate to melting points?
- Energy required to break bonds of 1 mole of molecules
- Higher Bond energy often means higher melting point
What is lattice energy? How does it relate to melting points?
- Energy released when 1 mole of ionic crystalline compound forms from gaseous ions
- Negative means energy is released
- The more negative it is, the higher the melting point
List all forces from weakest to strongest:
LDF, Dipole-Dipole, Hydrogen Bonding, Ionic, Metallic, Covalent
Which of the three intermolecular forces is the strongest?
Hydrogen Bonding
What is viscosity, surface tension, and Capillary action?
Viscosity:How much a fluid resists flowing
Surface tension:Property of liquids caused by attraction of particles which caused them to pull together leaving smallest possible surface area
Capillary Action: Attraction of surface of liquid to a solid’s surface
What are the 4 types of solid crystals?
Ionic crystals, Covalent network crystals, Covalent molecular crystals, and metallic crystals
What are properties of Ionic crystals?
Hard, Brittle, good insulators, high melting points, consist of positive and negative ions
What are properties of covalent network crystals?
Covalently bonded atoms, very hard, brittle, high melting points, nonconductors or semiconductors
