Intermolecular Forces, Bonding, & Properties Introductory Chemistry 6 – Intermolecular Forces, Bonding, & Properties Callum MacKellar – [email protected] – Office: Ha215a Office hours: 15.00-16.00 on Tuesdays and 10.00-11.00 on Fridays Intermolecular Forces Intermolecular forces are the attractive forces that exist between molecules. While they are generally much weaker than ionic, covalent and metallic bonds, the interactions between molecules are critical in determining the properties and behaviours of compounds. Molecules can interact through several different types of intermolecular forces, depending on their structures. By understanding the relative strengths of the forces, the properties of a substance can be predicted based on a molecule’s structure. Dipole-dipole forces, dipole-induced dipole forces and dispersion forces are known as Van der Waals forces. These make up the majority of electrostatic attraction forces that molecules experience, and they are critical to understanding the properties of condensed matter. Dipole-Dipole Forces In molecules that have atoms with different electronegativites, bonds are polarised due to the uneven distribution of electrons. In highly symmetrical molecules, these bond polarities cancel out and the molecule is apolar. However, in cases where the polarised bonds do not cancel out, they can give rise to a permanent dipole moment, or an overall polarisation. CH4 has no dipole moment, it is apolar. NH3 does have a dipole moment, it is polar. Much like opposite poles of a magnet attracting, the opposite electrostatic charges in molecules also attract one another. Dipole-dipole forces are stronger for molecules with larger dipole moments. They are also stronger in crystalline solids than in liquids due to the alignment of dipoles. Liquid less organised/aligned and slightly less dense. Na is less charge dense, so weaker. Ion-dipole is not VdW. Same as larger ΔΧ leads to stronger. Dipole-induced dipole forces come about when a polar molecule and an apolar molecules are adjacent. The dipole moment of the polar molecule can distort the electron cloud of an apolar molecule, creating a temporary dipole that attracts the polar molecule. This interaction is weaker than two permanent dipoles attracting one another, but can still be very important. Larger, more diffuse, more electrons = more polarisable = stronger interactions. Weaker permanent dipole = Weaker temporary dipole. Ions also induce dipoles, not VdW, can be stronger than polar molecules Dispersion Forces (London Forces) Dispersion forces, also known as London forces, are the attractive forces between all molecules due to the random motion of electrons. At any specific time the electrons in a molecule/atom may not be evenly distributed leading to an instantaneous or temporary dipole moment, which only lasts for a fraction of a second. A temporary dipole moment can induce a dipole on a neighbouring molecule, which leads to an attractive force. As temporary dipoles are constantly rearranging and reorienting, they cancel out to give no net dipole moment. All molecules and atoms have dispersion forces between them. Dipole changes as time passes Larger and more diffuse atoms/molecules lead to stronger dispersion forces. TAR is just CnH2n+2 Molecular/Atomic weight OR electron count gives good sense. Hydrogen bonding Hydrogen bonding (H-bonding) is a specific kind of dipole-dipole interaction that is particularly strong, and as such it gives some compounds and materials anomalous properties. It occurs when a hydrogen atom is bonded to an electronegative atom (N, O, F), and the partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom is attracted to a lone pair on a neighbouring electronegative atom (N, O, F). Highlight donors (A-H) and Acceptors (B), lone pairs on acceptors, dipoles Linear alignment is necessary Water can form 4 H-bonds per molecule, so ice forms an extended 3D network (HF + NH3 form chains or rings). Structure holds molecules set distance apart. In liquid, less structured, so molecules closer together. Thus water is less dense when it in its solid phase vs liquid. Intermolecular Force Comparison Force Species Involved Typical Strength Covalent Bond - 200-500 kJ mol-1 Dipole-Dipole Both with permanent dipole 2 kJ mol-1 Ion-Dipole One ion, one permanent dipole 15 kJ mol-1 Dipole-Induced Dipole One with permanent dipole <1 kJ mol-1 Ion-Induced Dipole One ion 10 kJ mol-1 Dispersion All Species dependant Hydrogen Bonding H-bond donor and acceptor 20 kJ mol-1 Bonding Structures With an understanding of chemical bonding and intermolecular forces, the physical properties of materials can be predicted and understood by examining their structure. Simple Molecular Substances that exist as single atoms and small molecules containing covalent bonds only interact through intermolecular forces. Intermolecular forces are relatively weak, and this is reflected in their properties. Mechanical properties: Soft, easily deformed. Melting/Boiling point: Generally low as IM forces are easily overcome. Boiling points of Group 14-17 Hydrides 120 NH3, H2O and HF are higher Group 14 Group 15 than others due to H- bonding. H2O is highest 60 Group 16 Group 17 because of 2 donor 2 acceptor. C ° 0 -60 Increase down periods due to increasing dispersion Boiling Point / Point Boiling forces some increase in D-D -120 interactions. -180 2 3 4 5 Period Solubility: Like dissolves like as strong interactions encourage mixing Polar Solvent Apolar Solute → Mixture D-D + Disp Disp D-ID + Disp Polar Solvent Polar Solute → Mixture D-D + Disp D-D + Disp D-D + Disp Electrical Conductivity: Insulator. Conduction requires mobile charge carriers (ions or electrons). In molecules, no ions, and electrons are localised in bonds/lone pairs. Thermal Conductivity: Crystals and gases are poorly conductive. Liquids can conduct. Giant Covalent Giant covalent structures are held together with covalent bonds as molecules are, but are many orders of magnitude larger. They are extended 3-dimensional networks sometimes known as Covalent Crystals, or Giant Atomic Lattices. As all of their bonding is covalent, the properties of giant covalent structures vary significantly from those of simple molecules. Diamond is a molecular crystal of carbon, and exhibits a lot of the properties that are common in covalent crystals. Each atom has 4 strong bonds to neighbouring carbon atoms. Mechanical Properties: Hard, as other covalent crystals tend to be. Melting/Boiling Point: Very high as covalent bonds are hard to break (sometimes no melting) Solubility: Insoluble as VdW/H-bonds are too weak to break covalent bonds and separate atoms. Electrical Conductivity: Insulator. Electrons are localised in bonds. Thermal Conductivity: Conductor. Bonds transfer vibrations through the material readily. This contrasts with other covalent crystals. Graphite is a layered from of carbon. It and diamond are allotropes. Each atom has 3 bonds to neighbouring carbon atoms in the layer forming edge-sharing hexagons. Bonds between layers are week. Mechanical Properties: Soft, as layers can more past each other. Used in pencil lead as layers deposit on page, and as lubricant as layers move past each other. Electrical Conductivity: Conductor. 4th valence e- on every atom is delocalised within the layer and can move. Thermal Conductivity: Conductor. Ionic In ionic materials, electrons have been fully transferred from atoms of one element to another. The electrostatic attraction between the ions holds them together in extended lattices, with each ion surrounded by ions of the opposite charge. Mechanical Properties: Hard and brittle, as disrupting the structure moves ions out of alignment. Melting/Boiling Point: High as electrostatic attraction between ions is hard to overcome. Electrical Conductivity: Non-conductive in crystals as ions are immobilised. Can conduct in solution or in melt Solubility: Soluble in polar solvents (e.g H2O) which can form strong ion-dipole interactions. Spheres of hydration form around ions. More charge dense ions attract more water Larger spheres Bigger radius of hydration (Stokes Radius) Thermal Conductivity: Poor. Metallic As metals make up the majority of the periodic table, and given the variety in ions that can form and be surrounded by a sea of electrons, metallic materials show a wide variation in properties, with plenty of exceptions. Mechanical Properties: Various, but can be very hard due to strong electrostatic attractions. Ductile (can be drawn in wires) and malleable (deformable) as ions can rearrange within electrons without breaking. Melting/Boiling Point: Various, from high due to strong attraction to low (gallium melts 30 °C) Dimeric, pseudo molecular structure Electrical Conductivity: Conductive, as sea of delocalised electrons can carry charge. Thermal Conductivity: Good conductor .

    Intermolecular forces and Solutions Chapter 7 Forces • Intra-molecular forces: Forces within the molecule. Generally stronger. Examples: Ionic, polar covalent and non-polar covalent bonds. • Inter-molecular forces: Generally weaker. Examples: dipole-dipole and hydrogen bonding. • Where do we see the effects of intermolecular forces? • They are the attraction that holds water into its liquid and solid shape. • They are the forces that give water it's surface tension. • They are the forces that break when going from a solid to a liquid or a liquid to a gas. The type of molecule/ion determines the type of intermolecular force. Types of intermolecular forces • Ion-dipole (between ions and polar molecules) • dipole-dipole (between 2 polar molecules) • dipole-induced dipole (between a polar molecule and a non-polar molecules) • induced dipole - induced dipole (between 2 non- polar molecules) Water uses ion-dipole forces to dissolve salts HCl uses Dipole-Dipole Forces Hydrogen Bonding • A particularly strong example of dipole-dipole. • Occurs when there is an OH, NH or FH bond. H is very small and O N and F are very electronegative. Conditions for Hydrogen Bonding • Two important conditions must be met for hydrogen bonding to occur: o One molecule has a hydrogen atom attached by a covalent bond to an atom of N, O, or F. o The other molecule has an N, O, or F atom. Dipole-induced dipole induced dipole - induced dipole (also called London Forces) Larger molecules have more attractions What will be the intermolecular force in a pure substance?

  • Chapter 12 Intermolecular Forces: Liquids, Solids, and Phase Changes
    CHAPTER 12 INTERMOLECULAR FORCES: LIQUIDS, SOLIDS, AND PHASE CHANGES 12.1 The energy of attraction is a potential energy and denoted Ep. The energy of motion is kinetic energy and denoted Ek. The relative strength of Ep vs. Ek determines the phase of the substance. In the gas phase, Ep << Ek because the gas particles experience little attraction for one another and the particles are moving very fast. In the solid phase, Ep >> Ek because the particles are very close together and are only vibrating in place. Two properties that differ between a gas and a solid are the volume and density. The volume of a gas expands to fill the container it is in while the volume of a solid is constant no matter what container holds the solid. Density of a gas is much less than the density of a solid. The density of a gas also varies significantly with temperature and pressure changes. The density of a solid is only slightly altered by changes in temperature and pressure. Compressibility and ability to flow are other properties that differ between gases and solids. 12.2 a) intermolecular b) intermolecular c) intermolecular d) intramolecular 12.3 a) This is because the distance between particles is much greater in the gas. b) This is because the interparticle forces are greater in the solid. 12.4 a) Heat of fusion refers to the change between the solid and the liquid states and heat of vaporization refers to the change between liquid and gas states. In the change from solid to liquid, the kinetic energy of the molecules must increase only enough partially to offset the intermolecular attractions between molecules.

  • 13 Intermolecular Forces, Liquids, and Solids
    13Intermolecular Forces, Liquids, and Solids The four types of solids Intermolecular Forces of Attraction • Ch 12 was all about gases… particles that don’t attract each other. Intermolecular Forces of Attraction • Ch 13 is about liquids and solids… where the attraction between particles allows the formation of solids and liquids. Intermolecular Forces of Attraction • These attractions are called “intermolcular forces of attractions” or IMF’s for short. • Intermolcular forces vs intramolecular forces Four Solids – Overview • Molecular Solids (particles with IMF’s) • Metals (metallic bonding) • Ionic Solids (ionic bonding) • Covalent Network Solids (covalent bonding) Molecular Solids • Molecules or noble gases (individual particles) Molecular Solid Examples • H O 2 • C2H5OH • CO2 • C6H12O6 • CH 4 • The alkanes, alkenes, etc. • NH 3 • The diatomic molecules • NO 2 • The noble gases • CO • C2H6 Metals • A lattice of positive ions in a “sea of electrons” • Metal atoms have low electronegativity Metal Examples • Pb • Brass (Cu + Zn) • Ag • Bronze (Cu + Sn) • Au • Stainless Steel (Fe/Cr/C) • Cu • Zn • Fe Ionic Solids • A lattice of positive and negative ions Ionic Solid Examples • NaCl • CaCl2 • KCl • MgSO4 • KI • Fe2O3 • FeCl3 • AgNO3 • CaCO3 • + ion & - ion Covalent Network Solids • Crystal held together with covalent bonds Covalent Network Solid Examples • C(diamond) • C(graphite) • SiO2 (quartz, sand, glass) • SiC • Si • WC • BN Properties of Metals Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. They are shiny and lustrous. Metals can be pounded into thin sheets (malleable) and drawn into wires (ductile). Metals do not hold onto their valence electrons very well. They have low electronegativity.

  • Intramolecular & Intermolecular Forces
    TutorTube: Intramolecular & Intermolecular Forces Spring 2020 Introduction Hello and welcome to TutorTube, where The Learning Center’s Lead Tutors help you understand challenging course concepts with easy to understand videos. My name is Manal, Lead Tutor for sciences. In today’s video, we will explore different intramolecular and intermolecular forces. We will define, visualize, and compare all of these forces: covalent, ionic, metallic, London dispersion, dipole- dipole, hydrogen bonding, and ion-dipole. Let’s get started! Definitions To start, let’s define intramolecular and intermolecular. ‘Intra’ means within, so intramolecular forces occur within a molecule. ‘Inter’ means between, so intermolecular forces occur between molecules. The difference can be seen in this image. Image 1 (“Intramolecular and Intermolecular Forces”) Covalent Bonds The three types of intramolecular forces are covalent, ionic, and metallic bonding. Covalent bonds occur between two nonmetals. In this type of bond, the atoms share electrons. There are two types of covalent bonds: polar and nonpolar. Polar covalent bonds are between two atoms that have a difference in electronegativity. This difference in electronegativity causes unequal sharing of electrons, resulting in the more electronegative atom to have a partial negative charge, and the other atom to have a partial positive charge. In this image, the intramolecular attraction is a polar bond. Contact Us – Sage Hall 170 – (940) 369-7006 [email protected] - @UNTLearningCenter 2 Image 2 (“Intramolecular and Intermolecular Forces”) Nonpolar covalent bonds are between two atoms that have equal electronegativity, which is typically two of the same atoms, or between a carbon and a hydrogen. Electrons are shared equally, so no partial charges occur.

The scope of coverage includes all areas of chemical science including the interfaces with related disciplines such as biology, medicine and materials science. The goal of each thematic volume is to give the non-specialist reader, whether at the university or in industry, a comprehensive overview of an area where new insights are emerging that are of interest to larger scientific audience. Thus each review within the volume critically surveys one aspect of that topic and places it within the context of the volume as a whole. The most significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years should be presented. A description of the laboratory procedures involved is often useful to the reader. The coverage should not be exhaustive in data, but should rather be conceptual, concentrating on the methodological thinking that will allow the non-specialist reader to understand the information presented.
