1
New cards
ionic bond
electrostatic attraction between positive and negative ions
2
New cards
transfer of electrons
from metal to nonmetal
3
New cards
strength of ionic bonds
smaller ions = stronger bond
greater magnitude of charge = stronger bond
4
New cards
polar covalent bonds
difference in EN
unequal sharing of electrons, dipoles
between 2 different nonmetals
5
New cards
nonpolar covalent bonds
no difference in EN
equal sharing of electrons, no dipoles
between 2 of the same nonmetal or when the difference in EN is 0.4 or below
6
New cards
VSPER theory
Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion
electron domains around the central atom repel and get as far apart as possible
7
New cards
2 bonding domains, 0 nonbonding domains
linear, linear (180 degrees)
8
New cards
3 bonding domains, 0 nonbonding domains
trigonal planar, trigonal planar (120 degrees)
9
New cards
2 bonding domains, 1 nonbonding domains
trigonal planar, bent (118 degrees)
10
New cards
4 bonding domains, 0 nonbonding domains
tetrahedral, tetrahedral (109 degrees)
11
New cards
3 bonding domains, 1 nonbonding domains
tetrahedral, trigonal pyramidal (107 degrees)
12
New cards
2 bonding domains, 2 nonbonding domains
tetrahedral, bent (105 degrees)
13
New cards
bond polarity
in an individual bond, one side is more negative than the other
14
New cards
molecule polarity
the polarity of the molecule as a whole taking into account:
1. bond polarities
2. the shape of the molecule
15
New cards
there are dipoles in the molecule and the bond dipoles don’t cancel
polar molecule
16
New cards
there are dipoles in the molecule and the bond dipoles do cancel
nonpolar molecule
17
New cards
there are no dipoles in the molecule
nonpolar molecule
18
New cards
polar molecules IMFs
hydrogen bonding (if H + N,O,F)
dipole-dipole forces (not hydrogen bonding)
19
New cards
nonpolar molecules IMFS
london dispersion forces
20
New cards
lower strength IMFs
high evaporation rates, low boiling/melting point, easy to go from solid-liquid-gas
21
New cards
higher strength IMFs
low evaporation rates, high boiling/melting point, hard to go from solid-liquid-gas
22
New cards
why hydrogen bonds are strong
H,N,O,F are all very small atoms
big difference in EN between H and N,O,F
23
New cards
affecting the strength of LDFs
lots of electrons = strong LDF
shape of molecule
