An in-depth exploration of intermolecular and intramolecular forces, focusing on dipole forces, London dispersion forces, and hydrogen bonding. It discusses the differences between these forces, their effects on solid structures, and their impact on melting and boiling points. The document also covers the concepts of ionic solids, molecular solids, and network solids.

Dipole forces are the forces that act between polar molecules. The electrostatic attraction between the positive end of one polar molecule and the negative end of another is the dipole force. Dipole forces are generally weaker than hydrogen bonding. Both of these forces are due to dipole moments in molecules. Hydrogen bonding is given a separate name from dipole forces because hydrogen bonding is a particularly strong dipole force. Any neutral molecule that has a hydrogen covalently bonded to N, O, or F exhibits the relatively strong hydrogen bonding intermolecular forces.
London dispersion forces are accidental-induced dipole forces. Like dipole forces, London dispersion forces are electrostatic in nature. Dipole forces are the electrostatic forces between molecules having a permanent dipole. London dispersion forces are the electrostatic forces between molecules having an accidental or induced dipole. All covalent molecules (polar and nonpolar) have London dispersion forces, but only polar molecules (those with permanent dipoles) exhibit dipole forces.
As the size of a molecule increases, the strength of the London dispersion forces increases. This is because, as the electron cloud about a molecule gets larger, it is easier for the elec- trons to be drawn away from the nucleus. The molecule is said to be more polarizable.
London dispersion (LD) < dipole-dipole < H bonding < metallic bonding, covalent network, ionic.
Yes, there is considerable overlap. Consider some of the examples in Exercise 10.98. Benzene (only LD forces) has a higher boiling point than acetone (dipole-dipole forces). Also, there is even more overlap among the stronger forces (metallic, covalent, and ionic).
b. Viscosity: the resistance of a liquid to flow.
c. Melting point: the temperature (at constant pressure) where a solid converts entirely to a liquid as long as heat is applied. A more detailed definition is the temperature at which the solid and liquid states have the same vapor pressure under conditions where the total pressure is constant.
d. Boiling point: the temperature (at constant pressure) where a liquid converts entirely to a gas as long as heat is applied. The detailed definition is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid is exactly equal to the external pressure.
e. Vapor pressure: the pressure of the vapor over a liquid at equilibrium.
As the strengths of intermolecular forces increase, surface tension, viscosity, melting point and boiling point increase, while vapor pressure decreases.
Liquid: definite volume but no specific shape; assumes shape of the container; slightly compressible
Gas: no fixed volume or shape; easily compressible
Amorphous solid: Irregular arrangement of atoms or molecules
b. Ionic solid: Made up of ions held together by ionic bonding
Molecular solid: Made up of discrete covalently bonded molecules held together in the solid phase by weaker forces (LD, dipole, or hydrogen bonds).
c. Molecular solid: Discrete, individual molecules
Network solid: No discrete molecules; A network solid is one large molecule. The forces holding the atoms together are the covalent bonds between atoms.
d. Metallic solid: Completely delocalized electrons, conductor of electricity (cations in a sea of electrons)
Network solid: Localized electrons; Insulator or semiconductor
Unit cell: the smallest repeating unit of a lattice
A simple cubic unit cell has an atom, ion or molecule located at the eight corners of a cube. There is one net atom per simple cubic unit cell. Because the atoms in the cubic unit cell are assumed to touch along the cube edge, cube edge = Ρ = 2r where r = radius of the atom. A body-centered cubic unit cell has an atom, ion or molecule at the eight corners of a cube and one atom, ion, or molecule located at the center of the cube. There are two net atoms per body-centered cubic unit cell. Because the atoms in the cubic unit cell are assumed to touch along the body diagonal of the cube, body diagonal = 3 Ρ = 4r where Ρ = cube edge and r = radius of atom. A face-centered cubic unit cell has an atom, ion, or molecule at the eight
group 3A element. Gallium or indium are two substances which will produce p-type semi- conductors when they are doped into germanium.
The structure of sodium chloride can be described in terms of a cubic closest packed array of Cl−^ ions with Na+^ ions in all of the octahedral holes. An octahedral hole is formed between 6 Cl−^ anions. The number of octrahedral holes is the same as the number of packed ions. So in the face-centered unit cell of sodium chloride, there are 4 net Cl−^ ions and 4 net octahedral holes. Because the stoichiometry dictates a 1:1 ratio between the number of Cl−^ anions and Na+^ cations, all of the octahedral holes must be filled with Na+^ ions.
In zinc sulfide, the sulfide anions also occupy the lattice points of a cubic closest packing arrangement. But instead of having the cations in octahedral holes, the Zn2+^ cations occupy tetrahedral holes. A tetrahedral hole is the empty space created when four spheres are packed together. There are twice as many tetrahedral holes as packed anions in the closest packed structure. Therefore, each face-centered unit cell of sulfide anions contains 4 net S^2 −^ ions and 8 net tetrahedral holes. For the 1:1 stoichiometry to work out, only one-half of the tetrahedral holes are filled with Zn2+^ ions. This gives 4 S^2 −^ ions and 4 Zn2+^ ions per unit cell for an empirical formula of ZnS.
b. Condensation: process where gas molecules hit the surface of a liquid and convert to a liquid.
c. Sublimation: process where a solid converts directly to a gas without passing through the liquid state.
d. Boiling: the temperature and pressure at which a liquid completely converts to a gas as long as heat is applied.
e. Melting: temperature and pressure at which a solid completely converts to a liquid as long as heat is applied.
f. Enthalpy of vaporization (∆Hvap): the enthalpy change that occurs at the boiling point when a liquid converts into a gas.
g. Enthalpy of fusion (∆Hfus): the enthalpy change that occurs at the melting point when a solid converts into a liquid.
h. Heating curve: a plot of temperature versus time as heat is applied at a constant rate to some substance.
Fusion refers to a solid converting to a liquid, and vaporization refers to a liquid converting to a gas. Only a fraction of the hydrogen bonds in ice are broken in going from the solid phase to the liquid phase. Most of the hydrogen bonds in water are still present in the liquid phase and must be broken during the liquid to gas phase transition. Thus, the enthalpy of vaporization is much larger than the enthalpy of fusion because more intermolecular forces are broken during the vaporization process.
A volatile liquid is one that evaporates relatively easily. Volatile liquids have large vapor pressures because the intermolecular forces that prevent evaporation are relatively weak.
The relationship between melting points and pressure is determined by the slope of the solid- liquid equilibrium line. For most substances (CO 2 included), the positive slope of the solid- liquid line shows a direct relationship between the melting point and pressure. As pressure increases, the melting point increases. Water is just the opposite since the slope of the solid- liquid line in water is negative. Here the melting point of water is inversely related to the pressure.
For boiling points, the positive slope of the liquid-gas equilibrium line indicates a direct relationship between the boiling point and pressure. This direct relationship is true for all substances including H 2 O and CO 2.
The critical temperature for a substance is defined as the temperature above which the vapor cannot be liquefied no matter what pressure is applied. The critical temperature, like the boiling point temperature, is directly related to the strength of the intermolecular forces. Since H 2 O exhibits relatively strong hydrogen bonding interactions and CO 2 only exhibits London dispersion forces, one would expect a higher critical temperature for H 2 O than for CO 2.
