Bond Dipole

Separation of electrical charge created when atoms with different electronegativities form a covalent bond; a type of polar bond.

Bonding dipoles


2
New cards

Permanent Dipole

Permanent separation of electrical charge in a molecule resulting from unequal distributions of bond and/or lone pairs of electrons.

3
New cards

Polar Bond

bonds between atoms, in which there are an unequal distribution of electronsin a covalent bond.

4
New cards

Polar Molecules

Unequal distributions of electric charge that give rise to certain molecular shapes

  • in the molecule, certain regions have more positive charge/s and ones with more negative charge/s

  • POLAR MOLECULES WILL ALWAYS HAVE A PERMANENT DIPOLE.

In certain atoms, there are more than one central atoms.The hybridization of and geometry around each carbon must be determined independently.

19
New cards

Intermolecular force

  • Forces that exist BETWEEN molecules and hold them together in the liquid or solid phase.

    • attraction between two molecules and/or ions

    • weaker than intramolecular forces and act over longer distances.

    • influences the physical properties of all substances.


20
New cards

  • forces INSIDE atoms

  • hold atoms together within a molecule.

    • Exist separate like intermolecular

  • The temperature at which an molecule turns into its gaseous form    

    • The temperatures at which a liquid's vapor pressure equals external pressure


22
New cards

TREND BETWEEN BOILING POINTS AND ATOMIC NUMBER

  • As atomic number increases, so does boiling points

    • the stronger the particles’ attractions for each other, the more energy needed to separate them—and, in turn, the higher the boiling points.



23
New cards

Temporary dipoles:

  • Separation of charge produced in an atom or molecule by a momentary uneven distribution of electrons, also referred induced dipole

    • only intermolecular force present in between nonpolar molecules.

  • The presence of temporary dipoles in atoms and molecules creates an electrostatic way for them to interact with other atoms and molecules.

    (a) Two atoms, each with a symmetrical distribution of electrons, approach each other and (b) create two temporary dipoles as their nuclei and electron clouds interact. (c) The strengths of temporary dipoles are shown with the same color scale used in Chapter 4 to represent the strengths of permanent dipoles in molecules.


24
New cards

    • London dispersion forces become stronger, as atoms and molecules become larger


25
New cards

26
New cards

  • Number of electrons- strength increase if electrons increase,

  • Size of atoms/molecules

29
New cards

Constitutional Isomers:

  • Compounds with the same molecular formula, but different connections between the atoms in their molecules.

    • More branching in the structure leads to a smaller surface area, which causes a decrease in the London dispersion forces between molecules.



30
New cards

45
New cards

    • like dissolves like



46
New cards

Non-polar solutes | Polar solvents interactions

  • Nonpolar solutes dont dissolve or dissolve very little in polar solvents because the interaction is much weaker than the interactions that keep the solute molecules attracted to each other, and solvent molecules are attracted to other solvent molecules



47
New cards

Non-polar solutes | non-polar solvents interactions

Steps to Balance Chemical Equations

  1. Write a preliminary expression containing a single particle (atom, molecule, or formula unit) of each reactant and product with a reaction arrow separating reactants from products. Include phase symbols indicating physical states.

    (Write equation of each reactant and product on both sides, separating them with a arrow, and indicating what states each atom is in)

  2. Check whether the expression is balanced by counting the atoms of each element on each side of the reaction arrow.

    (Check if both sides are balanced, if not continue)

  3. Choose an element that appears in only one reactant and one product and balance it first.

  4. Choose coefficients for the other substances so that the number of atoms for each element is the same on both sides of the reaction arrow.
    (add more of that substance through coefficents, inorder to balance it)
