Properties Based on Bonding

Definition
Not all ionic compounds are soluble, but those containing ammonium ions, nitrate ions, and alkali metal ions are.[image]
Term

Oxyacid Strength

[image]

Definition
The increased number of oxygen atoms pulls negative charge away from the O-H bond, weakening the attraction of the proton for the electron pair and thus strengthening the acid. 
Term

Binary Acid Strength

[image]

Definition

The greater the size of the negative ion, the weaker its attraction for the proton, and so the stronger the acid, and the weaker the conjugate base. HI is the strongest binary acid.


Strong Acids:  HCl, H2SO4, HNO3


Term

Kinetic Molecular Theory-

particles of matter constantly in motion

increase temperature--increase speed

Definition

Term

KMT

[image]

Definition
IF the temperature is not changed, no matter what else is listed in the problem, the average kinetic energy of a gas does not change. That is the definition of temperature!
All gases begin to act non-ideally (aka real) when they are at low temperatures and/or high pressures because these conditions increase particle interactions

 

Under the same conditions, the stronger the intermolecular attractions between gas particles, the LESS ideal the behavior of the gas 
Term

Properties of a Gas

What is the effect of changing moles, pressure, and temperature of a gas?

Dissolving/Dissociation:  Solute and Solvent

[image]

Definition
When drawing solute ions:
Pay attention to size (Na+ is smaller than Cl-)
Draw charges on ion, but not on water
Draw at least 3 water molecules around each

 

 The negative dipole (oxygen side) points toward cation and the positive dipoles (H side) points towards the anion
Term

Question:

Rank the solutions in order of increasing molarity.

[image]

Definition

Answer:

C,D, and E (tied)-lowest concentration

(4 solute particles/50mL and 2 solute particles/25mL)

A and F (tied)

B-most concentrated (12 solute particles/50mL)

Term

London Dispersion Forces

weakest IMF

affects boiling point and melting point

Definition

Term

Question:

Which of the following would have the highest boiling point?

A:  He

B:  Ne

C:  Xe

D:  Kr

Definition

Answer:

Xenon

All are nonpolar gases.  The only IMF are LDF.  The strength of LDF are determined by the polarizability of the atoms.  The atom with the greated number of electrons will be the most polarizable, having the strongest IMF and the highest bp.

Term

Deviations from Ideal Gas Behavior

Think about KMT

  1. completely elastic collisions
  2. no IMF

At low temperatures and high pressure, those statements are not true

Definition

At which temperature and pressure will nitrogen gas behave least like an ideal gas?

A.  100K, 100atm

B.  100K, 1atm

C.  700K, 0.1atm

D.  700K, 1atm

 

Least ideal at low temperature, high pressure:  A

Term

Hydrogen Bonding

Stongest IMF

[image]

Definition
Hydrogen bonding is seen in the following molecules: water, DNA, ammonia, HF, and alcohols. H-bonding is an attraction or force between molecules

 

Hydrogen bonds are like a sandwich with N, O, and/or F as the bread. H will be in a intramolecular (same molecule) bond with one N, O, and/or F and have an intermolecular attraction (different molecule) with the other.

Term

Coulomb's Law and Solubility

Ionic compounds can dissolve in polar liquids like water because the ions are attracted to either the positive or negative part of the molecule.
There is a sort of tug-of-war involved with species dissolved in water. The water pulls individual ions away from the solid. The solid is pulling individual ions back out of the water. There exists an equilibrium based on how strongly the water attracts the ions, versus how strong the ionic solid attracts the ions.

 

We can predict the degree of solubility in water for different ionic compounds using Coulomb's law. The smaller the ions, the closer together they are, and the harder it is for the water molecules to pull the ions away from each other. The greater the charge of the ions, the harder it is for the water to pull them away as well.

 

Definition
QUESTION:
Predict which of the following pairs should be  more soluble in water, based on  Coulombic attraction.
LiF  or  NaF
NaF or KF

 

BeO or LiF

Term

Polar molecules-have permanent dipole moments

Nonpolar molecules-have no NET dipole moment

[image]

 

Definition

Which of the following would have the highest vapor pressure at 25oC?

A. H2O

B. Hg

C. CCl4

D. C10H22

 

C:  CCl4 has the highest vapor pressure because it has the weakest IMF.  The smallest nonpolar molecule will generally have the weakest IMF.  (Yes, the C-Cl bond is polar, but there is no NET dipole moment.)

Term

Bonding and Electronegativity

[image]

 

Definition

Differences in electronegativities lead to different types of bonding*:

   0.0 – 0.4: Bond is generally considered nonpolar

   0.5 – 1.7: Bond is generally considered polar

 

     > 1.7: Bond is generally considered ionic

Term

Question:

Which bond would be the most polar?

A. C-O

B. H-O

C. H-F

D. F-O

Definition

Answer:

H-F has the greatest electronegativity difference between the two atoms.  Atoms that are far apart on the periodic table will have the greatest difference in electronegativity.  Remember, C-H bond is essentially nonpolar.  There is very little electronegativity difference in C and H atoms.

Term

Ionic compounds

[image]

 

Definition

Ionic compounds are soluble in water, have high mp and bp, and are brittle.  As the crystal is struck, the ions become displaced.  The displaced ions will repel like charges and fracture.

[image]

Term

Lewis Diagrams/VSEPR

Question:

Which of the following molecules has a tetrahedral shape?

A. NH3

B. H2O

C. BH3

D. CH4

Definition

Answer:

CH4.  Tetrahedral molecules must have 4 bonds and no lone pairs of electrons on the central atom.

Term

Ionic or Covalent?

What are the bonding tests?

Definition

Term

Question:

Why is the melting point of MgO (3125K) higher than the melting point of NaCl (1074K)?

Definition

The +2 and -2 ions attract each other more strongly than +1 attracts -1.


 

 

The ions Mg+2 and O-2 are smaller than Na+1 and Cl-1, therefore the ions can get closer together, increasing their electrostatic attractions.


Greater electrostatic attractions make it harder to melt.

Term

Molecular Compound Interactions

[image]

Polar Covalent compounds align according to dipole-dipole interactions.

Non-Polar Covalent compounds align according to LDF’s as a solid. 

 

 

 

Definition

Which of the following are broken when water boils?

A.  Covalent bonds

B.  Hydrogen bonds

C.  Dipole-dipole interactions

D.  London Dispersion Forces


(All of the IMF forces are broken--that's what boiling does.  It's still the same molecule.)
