polar covalent bond
electrons are attached to one atom more than the other and there is pull (between covalent and ionic in electronegativity)
most electronegative element
Fluorine
as the difference in electronegativity between two bonded atoms increases, the bond polarity and ionic character ______ __________
also increases
C - O, C - N, C - X, C - M bonds are
polar
electrons are more concentrated near the
electronegative atom
red on a electrostatic potential map indicates
electron rich
blue on a electrostatic potential map indicates
electron poor
what is the only IMFA present in non polar compounds
London dispersion forces
why are London dispersion forces the weakest IMFA
due to temporary dipoles
what creates dipole - dipole forces
differences in electronegativity
what creates hydrogen bonds
interaction of H and the lone pair of N, O, or F
the strength of H-bonding increases with…
increasing electronegativity
what does the formal charge reflect and what is it used for
- it reflects the electron count of a particular atom in a molecule compared to an isolated neutral atom
- it is used for bookkeeping purposes
what are resonance structures
structures that differ in the position of the pi bond or lone pair
define Arrhenius acids and bases
arrhenius acid - H in front, releases H+
arrhenius base - OH in back, releases OH
define Bronsted Lowry acids and bases
bronsted lowry acid - Acids Donate H+ (proton) (ADD)
bronsted lowry base - Bases Accept H+ (proton) (BAD)
define Lewis acids and bases
Lewis Acid:
1. positive charge
2. B, Al, Ti, Fe
3. -COOH (carboxylic acid)
Lewis Base:
1. negative charge
2. group I or II metal (Li, Mg…)
3. Nitrogen w/o a charge
the _______ the pka the weaker the acid
higher
the equilibrium of a reaction will always move towards the ___________ acid
weaker
the butt of a curvy arrow always goes from a Lewis ____ to a Lewis _____ .
LEWIS BASE TO A LEWIS ACID
acids donate ____ and bases accept ___
H+
label
green: conjugate base
purple: conjugate acid
label
pink : conjugate base

the stronger the acid the weaker its __________ ______
conjugate base
