59) C2H4O - _DDI__ 60) Br2- _LDF__

61) CH3Cl - _DDI__ 62) C3H8- _LDF__ 63) List and explain the two factors that affect the force of attraction in London dispersion forces? 2 points Size – the larger the molecule, the more electrons there are, the stronger the temporary dipole, the stronger the London dispersion force

Shape – long skinny molecules can allow for more surface area (surface contact) between molecules, the greater the contact (surface area), the stronger the London dispersion force.

64) Explain how London dispersion forces cause molecules to be attracted to one another. 2 points The motion of the electrons – the electrons can move so that most of the electrons are on one side, when this happens, these electrons create a partial negative side and the opposite side is missing electrons and becomes partial negative. This is called an instantaneous dipole. The instantaneous dipole can contact another adjacent molecule and induce a second dipole. The electrostatic force of attraction between the partial positive of one dipole is attracted to the partial negative of the second dipole – this is a London dispersion force (due to electron movement). .

65) Rank the following FOUR molecules from lowest to highest boiling points: EXPLAIN 2 points (1) (4) (3) (2) CH4 CBr4 CCl4 CF4 LDF LDF LDF LDF  All LDF

The larger the molecule, the stronger the LDF, the higher the boiling point

66) Rank the following THREE molecules from lowest to highest boiling points: EXPLAIN 2 points

 All LDF LDF (1) LDF (3) LDF (2) The larger the molecule, the stronger the LDF, the higher the boiling point

67) Rank the following THREE molecules from lowest to highest boiling points: EXPLAIN 2 points

DDI (2) HB (3) LDF (1)

LDF forces are the weakest, and HB are the strongest  stronger forces = higher boiling points

68) Explain “why” atoms become partially positive and partially negative in a polar bond. 2 points

In a polar bond, the difference between the electronegativities between the two non- metals is greater than 0.4, this difference will result in the shared electrons not being shared equally. This unequal sharing will cause the electrons to move closer to the atom with the higher electronegativity. The negatively charged electrons will result in this higher electronegative atom becoming partial negative, and the other atom becoming partial positive.
