CP Polarity & IMFs

Front

What is the polarity of Li-O bond?

Back

Ionic

Front

What are intermolecular forces?

Back

Attractions between neighboring molecules.

Front

In which type of bond are partial charges present?

Back

Polar Covalent

Front

What type of IMF is a Dipole-Dipole Interaction?

Back

Attraction between polar molecules.

Front

What is the result of a weak IMF?

Back

Low surface tension.

Front

Define ionic bond.

Back

A bond formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to another, resulting in the attraction between oppositely charged ions.

Front

What is a polar covalent bond?

Back

A bond where electrons are shared unequally between two atoms, resulting in partial charges.

Front

What is the significance of hydrogen bonds?

Back

They are a type of dipole-dipole interaction that occurs between molecules containing hydrogen bonded to highly electronegative atoms.

Front

What is the relationship between IMF strength and boiling point?

Back

Stronger IMFs result in higher boiling points.

Front

What is a nonpolar covalent bond?

Back

A bond where electrons are shared equally between two atoms, resulting in no partial charges.
