Learning Objectives
Differentiate between polar and non polar molecules State the names of different types of intermolecular forces of attraction and differentiate between them Explain the terms dipole dipole , instantaneous dipole induced dipole attractions and hydrogen bonding Describe the effects of attractive forces on the physical properties of substances ( This presentation is to enhance your understanding of the topic . This is only part of the syllabus)
Polarity
Separation of charge
An asymmetrical difference in electronegativity along a bond or in a molecule
The polar molecules with d+ and d- ends and non polar molecules without dipoles

d+
Two polar molecules align so that d+ end of one molecule and d- end of another molecule are next to each other giving rise to electrostatic attraction between the two molecules. Lets look at:
fluromethane (CH3F) and ethane (C2H6) on the next slide

INDUCED A Permanent DIPOLE DIPOLE non- polar ( polar molecule) molecule Permanent Dipole Induced Dipole (weak and short-lived)
A temporary dipole forms in a non-polar molecule which leads to a temporary dipole to form in ANOTHER non-polar molecule
Dispersion is the ONLY intermolecular attraction that occurs between non-polar molecules

TEMPORARY DIPOLE
Hydrogen Bonding
Is the STRONGEST Intermolecular Force!! Occurs only if hydrogen in a molecule is bonded to a F, O or a N atom
Ice
Liquid
Hydrogen Bonding
Hydrogen bonds keep water in the liquid state over a wide range of temperatures than is found for any other molecule of its Size Hydrogen bonded to either of F, O or N, (the 3 most electronegative elements in the periodic table); is highly deficient in electrons and so is easily attracted by the lone pair of electrons on F, O or N of another molecule
Expansion of Ice
Ice expands when water freezes compared to most substances that contract on freezing This is due to the presence of hydrogen bonding between water molecules Ice as a result gets an open structure, which makes it less dense than liquid water.
Ponds Freezing
Solid water (ice) has a lower density than liquid water

high KE
Volatile Substances
Easily evaporate Have weak attractive forces between the particles Have low boiling point Have high vapor pressure
Non-volatile substances
Do not easily evaporate Have strong attractive forces between the particles Have high boiling point Have Low vapor pressure
Boiling
Boiling occurs when Vapor Pressure = Atmospheric Pressure
When Vapor Pressure = 760 mmHg, Boiling Point of water = 100oC
