  • Intermolecular forces (IMF)

    Attractive forces between neighboring particles of one or more substances
  • Intramolecular forces

    Forces within a molecule or ionic compound
  • Kinetic energy (KE)

    Keeps the particles at a distance and/or moving around
  • Solid to gas
    Low kinetic energy to high kinetic energy
  • Intramolecular bonds are stronger than intermolecular forces
  • Van der Waals forces
    Intermolecular forces of attraction between neutral molecules
  • Electronegativity
    Ability of an atom to attract electrons toward itself in a chemical bond
  • Intermolecular forces
    • Dipole-dipole forces
    • Ion-dipole forces
    • London dispersion forces
    • Hydrogen bonding
  • Dipole-dipole forces

    Attractive forces between polar molecules with dipole moments
  • Hydrogen bonds
    Strong type of dipole-dipole interaction
  • Ion-dipole forces

    Attraction between an ion and a polar molecule
  • London dispersion forces
    Exist between all atoms and molecules, present in nonpolar molecules due to continuous movement of electrons, stronger for larger molecules
  • The bigger the molecule, the stronger the London dispersion force between two molecules
  • Cohesive forces

    Intermolecular forces that bind like molecules to one another
  • Adhesive forces

    Intermolecular forces that bind a substance to a surface
  • Water
    Adhesive forces are greater than cohesive forces
  • Mercury
    Cohesive forces are greater than adhesive forces
  • Surface tension
    Property of a liquid to resist an external force, due to strong attractive and cohesive forces
  • Viscosity
    Resistance of a liquid to flow, greater for substances with stronger intermolecular forces
  • Vapor pressure
    Pressure of a substance's vapor in thermodynamic equilibrium, increases with temperature as molecule energy increases
  • Boiling point
    Temperature at which vapor pressure equals surrounding atmospheric pressure
  • Heat of vaporization
    Molar heat required to vaporize one mole of a substance at its boiling point
  • Capillary action
    Manifestation of surface tension
  • Solid
    • Closely packed together, least amount of kinetic energy
  • Crystalline solid

    • Crystals, particles arranged in order and symmetry
  • Amorphous solid
    • Solids without form, no repeating lattice pattern
  • Pseudo-solid
    • Doesn't have a melting point
  • Types of solids
    • Ionic solid
    • Covalent solid
    • Molecular solid
    • Metallic solid
  • Ionic solid

    • Formed by cation and anion, typical metals and nonmetals
  • Molecular solid

    • Neutral molecules forming molecular lattice structures, low melting and boiling points, non-conductors
  • Covalent network solid
    • Distinct atoms all bound covalently, high melting and boiling points
  • Metallic solid

    • Metallic bonding, great conductors of heat and electricity, melting and boiling points vary
  • Phase diagram

    Graphical representation of pressure-temperature relationships for phase equilibria of a substance
  • Solution
    Homogeneous mixture of two or more substances
  • Solute
    Substance(s) present in the smaller amount(s)
  • Solvent
    Substance present in the larger amount
  • Types of solutions
    • Saturated
    • Unsaturated
    • Supersaturated
  • Molality
    Number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent
  • Molarity
    Number of moles of solute per liter of solution
  • Mole fraction

    Ratio of moles of a component to total moles in a solution
