Question
Answer
Ionic bond   electrons transferred from one atom to another to form ions with complete outer shells of electrons. High melting pt.  
🗑
Polyatomic ions   charge is delocalized over whole ion  
🗑
Covalent bonding   sharing of one or more pairs of electrons so that each atom in the molecule achieves a stable outer shell of electrons  
🗑
Single covalent bond   sharing of one pair of electrons. sigma bond. longest and weakest covalent bond.  
🗑
Double covalent bond   sharing of two paris of electrons. sigma and pi bond. moderate covalent bond length and strength  
🗑
triple covalent bond   sharing of three pairs of electrons. sigma and two pi bonds. shortest and strongest covalent bond.  
🗑
co-ordinate covalent bond   electrons in the shared pair originate from the same atom  
🗑
Polar bonds   when one atom is more electronegative than another resulting in slightly + and - atoms  
🗑
VSPER theory (valence shell electron pair repulsion)   pairs of electrons arrange themselves around the central atom so that they are as far apart from each other as possible. greater repulsion between non-bonded pairs than between bonded pairs.  
🗑
linear   180  
🗑
trigonal planar   120  
🗑
tetrahedral   109.5  
🗑
trigonal bipyramidal   90, 120  
🗑
octahedral   90  
🗑
how to work out the actual shape   calculate the number of pairs of electrons around central atom, work out how many bonding pairs/non-bonding pairs  
🗑
molecular polarity   depends on relative electronegativities of the atoms and on the shape  
🗑
Van der Waals forces   electrons unevenly spread at any one moment that produces temporary instantaneous dipoles that induce another dipole in a neighboring particle. Increase with increasing mass.  
🗑
intermolecular forces   forces of attraction between molecules  
🗑
dipole-dipole forces   polar molecules are attracted to each other by electrostatic forces. stronger than Van der Waals  
🗑
hydrogen bonding   occurs when H is bonded directly to a small, highly electronegative element like F, O, N, resulting in a very strong dipole-dipole force.  
🗑
metallic bonding   valence electrons in metals become detached from the atoms so that metals consist of a close packed lattice of positive ions in a sea of delocalized electrons.  
🗑
Melting and Boiling Points   indicates strength of intermolecular forces. BP is when the attractive forces are completely broken; MP is when the crystal solid structure is broken and some intermolecular forces remain  
🗑
solubility   "like dissolves like". Polar dissolves in polar, non-polar in non-polar. The longer an organic molecule, the less soluble it is in water.  
🗑
Conductivity   substance must possess electrons or ions that are free to move. Metals and molten ionic salts conduct electricity.  
🗑
sigma bond   formed when two atomic orbitals on different atoms overlap "head-on".  
🗑
pi bond   formed when two p orbitals overlap "sideways-on". Made of two regions of electron density  
🗑
sp3 hybridization   4 sp orbitals, 4 single bonds. tetrahedryl shape  
🗑
sp2 hybridization   3 sp orbitals, 1 p orbital. 3 single bonds; 2 single bonds, 1 double bond. trigonal planar shape  
🗑
sp hybridization   2 sp orbitals, 2 p orbitals. 2 single bonds; 2 double bonds; 1 single 1 triple bond. linear shape  
🗑
resonance structure   when it is possible to write more than one correct structure with regard to bonds.  
🗑
delocalization of electrons   can occur whenever alternate double and single bonds occur between carbon atoms.  
🗑
diamond   sp3 hybridized.  
🗑
graphite   sp2 hybridized. delocalized electrons-conduct electricity.  
🗑
