Q

How work out shape of molecule

A

1) Use dot and cross diagram to work out total no. of electron pairs
2) Find regular/irregular shape based of the information of bond and lone pairs.

32
Q

What is electronegativity?

A

The ability of an atom to attract the bonding electrons in a covalent bond

33
Q

Electronegativity with different atoms

A
  • More electronegative atom will have a greater share of electrons
  • It is a polar molecule
34
Q

Electronegativity with the same atom

A
  • Electrons are shared equally

- Non-polar molecule

35
Q

Electronegativity with very different atoms

A
  • Increasing polarisation will turn the bond from covalent from ionic
  • Most electronegative atom takes electrons completely, turning the bond from covalent to ionic
36
Q

What is the electronegativity trend across the periodic table?

A

Electronegativity increases up and group and across a period

37
Q

What are the electronegativity difference values on the Pauling Scale?

A

Covalent - 0
Polar covalent - 0-1.8
Ionic - >1.8

38
Q

How does symmetry affect the polarity of a molecule?

A

Symmetry will cancel out any dipoles, causing the molecules to be non-polar

39
Q

How to work out the dipole of a molecule?

A

1) Work out shape
2) Assign dipoles
3) Work out symmetry
4) Work out overall dipole

40
Q

What is the structure of ice?

A
  • Diamond-like structure

- Volume larger than liquid

41
Q

How does water change at certain temperatures?

A
  • 4*C < ice forms a simple molecular lattice
  • at 4*C water is at its maximum density
  • when ice melts, its structure collapses
42
Q

What bonds/forces are in simple molecular lattices?

A
  • Covalent bonds between atoms

- Weak intermolecular forces

43
Q

What intermolecular forces does water have?

A

Hydrogen bonding

44
Q

Why does water have hydrogen bonding?

A

There is a lone pair on an oxygen atoms that attracts the hydrogen bond

45
Q

What is the trend for boiling point in group 18?

A

Down group 18, the boiling point increases

46
Q

What is the trend of boiling point in group 14?

A

Down group 14, the boiling point increases

47
Q

What are the intermolecular forces in order of strength? (strongest at top)

A
  • Hydrogen bonding
  • Permanent dipole-dipole interactions
  • London forces (induced dipole)
48
Q

What are permanent dipole-dipole interactions?

A
  • Weak attractive force between permanent dipole dipoles

- Forces get stronger when electronegativity difference is higher (dipoles are larger)

49
Q

How does London forces form?

A
  • There is an uneven distribution of electrons
  • Which creates an instantaneous dipole when electrons get close
  • Which causes induced dipoles in neighbouring molecules
50
Q

When do London forces get stronger?

A
  • When the atom has more electrons

- Greater inst. dipole, ind. dipole larger, electrostatic attraction greater

51
Q

What are the requirements for hydrogen bonding?

A
  • Hydrogen must be bonded to a N, F or O

- Must have a lone pair on N, F or O

52
Q

What causes ‘irregular shape molecule’ to have its shape?

A
  • Comment on bonding pairs and lone pairs
  • Comment on bonding angle
  • Comment that lone pair repels MORE than bonding pair
53
Q

What causes ‘regular shape molecule’ to have its shape?

A
  • Comment on bonding pairs and lone pairs (none)
  • Comment on bond angle
  • Comment that bonding pair repels
54
Q

Why are polar solvents miscible in water?

A
  • Negative ions attracted to partially positive hydrogen atoms and positive ions attracted to partially negative oxygen atoms
  • Ionic lattice breaks down as it dissolves
  • Water molecules surround the ions
55
Q

What is the solubility of non-polar simple molecules?

A
  • Tend to be soluble in non-polar solvents as interactions occur between the molecule and the solvent
  • Interaction weaken the intermolecular forces in the simple molecular lattice and force it to break down and the compound dissolves
56
Q

Why are non-polar simple molecules typically not soluble in polar solvents?

A
  • Very little interaction between molecules in lattice and molecules in solvent
  • Intermolecular bonding within solvent is too strong to be broken
57
Q

Why can iconic compounds conduct electricity when molten and aqueous but not when solid?

A

Because the ions are mobile and therefore can carry a charge

58
Q

Why can metal conduct electricity in any state?

A
  • When molten, ions are mobile

- When solid, delocalised electrons can carry a charge
