75
Q

Give the definition for metallic bonding.

A

Metallic bonding is the electrostatic force of attraction between the positive metal ions and the delocalised electrons.

76
Q

What 3 main factors affect the strength of metallic bonding?

A
  1. No. protons / strength of nuclear attraction.
    - The more protons, the stronger the bond.
  2. No. delocalised electrons per atom (the outer shell electrons are delocalised)
    - The more delocalised electrons, the stronger the bond.
  3. Size of ion
    - The smaller the ion, the stronger the bond.
77
Q

Which metal has the stronger ionic bonding and higher melting point, Mg or Na?

A

Mg has stronger metallic bonding than Na and hence a higher melting point. The metallic bonding gets stronger because in Mg there are more electrons in the outer shell that are released to the sea of electrons. The Mg ion is also smaller and has one more proton. There is therefore a stronger electrostatic attraction between the positive metal ions and the delocalised electrons and higher energy is needed to break the bonds.

78

What bonding is in a giant ionic lattice?

84

- electrostatic force of attraction between the metal positive ions and the delocalised electrons.

85
Q

Give 2 examples of an element with a metallic giant lattice. Draw the structure.

A
  • Magnesium
  • Sodium
    (all metals)

(see page 2 in the chemrevise revision guide)

86
Q

Do giant ionic lattices have a or low melting and boiling point? Why?

A

High- because of the giant lattice of ions with strong electrostatic forces between the oppositely charged ions.

87
Q

Do simple molecular structures have high or low melting and boiling points? Why?

A

Low - because of the weak intermolecular forces between molecules (specify type, e.g. van der waals, hydrogen bonds)

88
Q

Do macromolecular structures have high or low melting and boiling points? Why?

A

High - because of many strong covalent bonds in the macromolecular structure. It takes a lot of energy to break the many strong bonds.

89
Q

Do giant metallic lattices have high or low melting and boiling points? Why?

A

High - because of the strong electrostatic forces between the positive ions and the sea of delocalised electrons.

91
Q

How good is simple molecular structures solubility in water?

Generally poor.

92
Q

A

Insoluble.

93
Q

How good is giant metallic lattices solubility in water?

A

Insoluble.

94
Q

How good is giant ionic lattices conductivity when a solid?

A

Poor: the ions can’t move/ fixed in a lattice.

95
Q

How good is simple molecular structures conductivity when a solid?

A

Poor: there are no ions to conduct and electrons are localised (fixed in place)

96
Q

How good is macromolecular structures conductivity when a solid?

A

Diamond and sand are poor because the electrons cannot move, they are delocalised.

Graphite is good because it has free delocalised electrons between layers.

97
Q

How good is giant metallic lattices conductivity when a solid?

A

Good: The delocalised electrons can move through the structure.

98
Q

105
Q

What physical state are giant metallic structures usually in?

A

Shiny metal.

106
Q

Why are giant metallic lattices malleable?

A

Malleable as the positive ions in the lattice are all identical. So the planes of ions can slide easily over one another.

146
Q

Give the definition of electronegativity.

A

Electronegativity is the relative tendency of an atom in covalent in a molecule to attract electrons in a covalent bond to itself.

147
Q

What are the 4 most electronegative atoms?

A

F, O, N and Cl

148
Q

What is the most electronegative element?

A

Fluorine

149
Q

Does electronegativity increase or decrease across a period? Explain your answer.

A

Electronegativity increases across a period as the number of protons increases and the atomic radius decreases because the electrons in the same shell are pulled in more.

150
Q

Does electronegativity increase or decrease down a group?

A

Electronegativity decrease down a group because the distance between the nucleus and the outer electrons increases and the shielding of inner shells increases.

151
Q

How can you tell when compounds are purely covalent?

A

A compound containing elements of similar electronegativity and hence a small electronegativity difference will be purely covalent.

152
Q

How can you tell when compounds are purely ionic?

A

A compound containing elements of very different electronegativity and hence a very larger electronegativity difference (>1.7) will be ionic.

153
Q

When does a polar covalent bond form?

A

When the elements in the bond have different electronegativities.

154
Q

What happens to the electrons in a polar covalent bond and what does this form?

A

When a bond is a polar covalent bond it has an unequal distribution of electrons in the bond and produces a charge separation, (dipole) partially + and partially - ends.

155
Q

Will the element with the larger electronegativity in a polar compound be the partially + or partially - end?

A

The element with the larger electronegativity in a polar compound will be the partially - end. (e.g. HCl, Cl is the partially - end)

156
Q

Do symmetrical molecules form polar bonds? Explain your answer.

A

A symmetric molecule will not be polar even if the individual bonds within the molecule are polar.

The individual dipoles on the bonds ‘cancel out’ due to the symmetrical shape of the molecule.

There is no net dipole moment. The molecule is non polar.

157
Q

What is a symmetric molecule?

A

A molecule where all bonds are identical and have no lone pairs.

158
Q

Is CO2 a polar molecule?

A

CO2 is a symmetrical molecule and is a non-polar molecule.

159
Q

Is CCl4 a polar molecule?

A

CCl4 is a non-polar molecule.

160
Q

Is CH3Cl a polar molecule?

A

CH3Cl is a polar molecule.

161
Q

Where do Van der Waals’ forces occur and not occur?

A

Van der Waals’ forces occur between all molecular substances and noble gases.
They occur between all simple covalent molecules and the separate atoms in noble gases.

They do not occur in ionic substances.

162
Q

What is another name for Van der Waals’ forces?

A

transient, induced dipole-dipole interactions.

163
Q

How do Van der Waals’ forces form?

A

In any molecule the electrons are moving constantly and randomly. As this happens the electron density can fluctuate and parts of the molecule become more or less negative, (e.g. small temporary or transient dipoles form)

These instantaneous dipoles can cause dipoles to form in neighbouring molecules. These are called induced dipoles. The induced dipole is always the opposite sign to the original.

164
Q

What is the main factor that affects the size of the Van der Waals?

A

The more electrons there are in the molecule the higher the chance that temporary dipoles will form. This makes the Van der Waals stronger between the molecules and so boiling points will be greater.

165
Q

Why do the boiling points increase down group 7?

A

There are increasing numbers of electrons in the bigger molecules causing an increase in the size of the Van der Waals between molecules. This is why I2 is a solid whereas Cl2 is a gas.

166
Q

Why do the boiling points increase across the alkane homologous series?

A

There are increasing numbers of electrons in the bigger molecules causing an increase in the size of the Van der Waals between molecules.

167
Q

How can the shape of a molecule have an effect on the size of the Van der Waals forces?

A

Long chain alkanes have a larger surface areas of contact between molecules for van der Waals forces to form than compared to spherical shaped branched alkanes and so have stronger Van der Waals.

168
Q

Where do permanent dipole-dipole forces occur?

A

Permanent dipole-dipole forces occurs between polar molecules.

169
Q

Why do molecules with permanent dipole-dipole forces have higher boiling points than molecules with Van der Waals forces?

A

It is a stronger bond than Van der Waals.

170
Q

Do asymmetrical molecules form polar molecules?

A

Yes, polar molecules are asymmetric. They have a bond where there is a significant difference in electronegativity between the atoms.

171
Q

172
Q

A

173
Q

Where does hydrogen bonding occur?

A

Hydrogen bonding occurs in compounds that have a hydrogen atom attached to one of the three most electronegative atoms of nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine, which must have an available lone pair of electrons.

e.g. -O-H, -N-H, F-H bond.

There is a large electronegativity difference between the H and the O,N,F

174
Q

Fact: Hydrogen bonding occurs in addition to Van der Waals forces.

and

Permanent dipole-dipole forces occurs in addition to Van der Waals forces.
