Forces holding solids and liquids together.
Intermolecular
Forces
Intermolecular forces are the
attraction
and
repulsion
between molecules.
Intermolecular forces are chemical bonds. True or False?
False
IMF substance may exhibit a function of
charge
,
polarity
, and
molar mass.
IMF is important in determining
solubility
of gases, liquids and solids in various solvents.
IMF is crucial in determining
biologically
important molecules like
DNA
and
proteins.
STAGES OF MATTER:
ordered, low kinetic energy.
Solid
STAGES OF MATTER:
relatively close, moderate kinetic energy.
liquid
STAGES OF MATTER:
far apart, high kinetic energy.
gas
Chemical bonds =
intra
molecular forces
particle attraction =
inter
molecular forces
Intramolecular
forces focus on
molecular
stability
(ionic and covalent)
Intermolecular
forces focus on
bulk
properties
(freezing/boiling point)
Collective name of IMF.

forces
occurs between ions and polar solvents.
ion
- dipole
occurs between polar molecules.
dipole
- dipole
occurs between all molecules, mostly seen on non-polar molecules.
london dispersion
occurs between O-H, N-H, F-H bonds.
Hydrogen bonding
Boiling point increases with
molecular weight
and
surface area
IMFA increases with increasing
polarization
of bonds
forces that govern charged particles are defined by
coulomb
's law
Dipole-dipole forces bind molecules having
permanent
dipoles to one another
The measure of polarity of a bond.

Hydrogen bonding explains the phenomena of
capillary

,
surface
tension
and
floatation

C
Polar molecules (e.g. water) can temporarily induce or create dipoles in molecules without permanent dipoles.
induced
dipole
forces (debye forces)
formation of dipoles in 2 nonpolar molecules due to asymmetrical distribution of electron cloud.
induced
