Q

describe what happens when 2 H atoms approach each other

A

Electron cloud of one atom is attracted to nucleus of other atom, kinetic energy increases

Q

What is an ionic crystal lattice and how does it explain the high melting points of ionic compounds?

A

An ionic crystal lattice is an ordered, solid, three-dimensional array of cations and anions

The large number of interionic forces in the crystal lattice locks the ions in place giving ionic compounds their high melting points

Q

What are 3 differences between ionic and covalent bonds?

A

Ionic bonds form between metals and nonmetals, covalent bonds form between nonmetals

In ionic bonds there is a complete transfer of electrons, while in covalent bonds there is a sharing (equal or unequal) of electrons.

Compounds with ionic bonds are crystalline solids at room temperature while compounds with covalent bonds are solids, liquids, or gases at room temperature.

Q

Glucose is a covalent compound with the molecular formula C6H12O6. This and many other covalent formulas are not reduced down to their simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in the compound. Explain why.

A

Glucose is a covalently bonded molecule composed of discrete molecules. Each molecule contains six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms and six oxygen atoms.
In contrast to ionic compounds, glucose does not form a crystal lattice

Q

Many covalent compounds have much lower melting points than ionic compounds. Why doesn’t this mean that covalent bonds are weaker than ionic bonds?

A

Melting points of covalent compounds usually do not require breaking the bonds between atoms. Instead, intermolecular attractions are broken when melting covalent compounds. The actual bonds between the atoms do not get broken as they are quite strong

Q

Consider the nature of the covalent bonds present in HCl and in N2. Which substance would you expect to have the higher melting point? Explain your answer

A

HCl would have the higher melting point. HCl is polar (ΔEN = 0.9) while N2 is non-polar.

Because HCl is polar it acts as a dipole, the H end is ∂+ while the Cl end is ∂-

∂+ end of one molecule lines up with the ∂- end of a different molecule setting up an electrostatic attraction which need to be broken in order to melt HCl.

N2 doesn’t have these attractions.
