FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Back
An intermolecular force is a force that occurs between molecules, influencing their physical properties such as boiling and melting points.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What are the three main types of intermolecular forces?
Back
The three main types of intermolecular forces are hydrogen bonds, dipole-dipole interactions, and London dispersion forces.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is a hydrogen bond?
Back
A hydrogen bond is a strong type of dipole-dipole interaction that occurs when hydrogen is bonded to highly electronegative atoms like nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do dipole-dipole interactions occur?
Back
Dipole-dipole interactions occur between polar molecules where the positive end of one molecule is attracted to the negative end of another.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What are London dispersion forces?
Back
London dispersion forces are weak intermolecular forces that arise from temporary dipoles in molecules, occurring in all types of molecules.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How does molecular polarity affect intermolecular forces?
Back
Molecular polarity affects intermolecular forces by determining the strength of interactions; polar molecules have stronger dipole-dipole interactions compared to nonpolar molecules.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What determines if a molecule is polar or nonpolar?
Back
A molecule is polar if it has a net dipole moment due to an uneven distribution of electron density, while it is nonpolar if the electron distribution is even.
