Chapter 6 Flashcards
(64 cards)
the chemical composition and the molecular structure of chemical species determine the type and overall strength of its _______ forces
intermolecular
the attractive forces that exist between all molecules and forms
forces that hold liquids and solids together
responsible for the very existence of condensed states/phases of matter
intermolecular forces
The phases of matter depend on the magnitude of the intermolecular forces between the constituent particles, relative to the amount of ____ energy
thermal
When thermal energy is high, matter tends to be _____
gaseous
When thermal energy is low, matter tends to be _____ or _____
liquid, solid
phases
_____ and _____ cannot be squashed
_____ can be squashed
solid and liquid
gas
____ is a form of matter that is uniform throughout in both chemical composition and physical state
phase
the temperature at which a liquid boils and changes to vapor
boiling point
the temperature at which a given solid will melt
melting point
attractions exist between molecules. It takes energy to break these attractions. The stronger the attractions between molecules, the ____ energy it takes to break the attractions; therefore, the melting and boiling points _____
more; increase
measure of resistance to flow
viscosity
stronger attractions between molecules mean the molecules do not slip past one another easily - ____ viscous substance
more
weaker attractions mean the molecules can slip past one another easily - _____ viscous substance
less
intermolecular forces
in between
intramolecular forces
within
What are the types of intramolecular forces? characteristics?
ionic bonds - between positively and negatively charged ions (metals/nonmetals)
metallic bonds - between metal atoms
covalent bonds - within molecules (composed of nonmetals and/or semimetals)
a force that holds together the atoms or ions within a molecule or compound
intramolecular forces
intramolecular forces are usually ______ than intermolecular forces
stronger
intermolecular forces are strong enough to control _____ properties like boiling/melting points and viscosities
physical
Attractive interactions that exist between molecules (or between a molecule and ion)
