This document provides information for a chemistry class. It lists the topics to be covered, which include gases, liquids, solids and intermolecular forces from chapters 11.1-11.2. Students are assigned to work in groups and given reading assignments. The professor outlines the homework due for the next class and lab safety information. Office hours are provided, and a pre-class reading assignment is listed along with sample exercises to be completed.

7. 5 Main points of 11.1-11.2
Phases of Matter and IMF
1. Liquids and solids have strong IMF
• Gases have weak interparticle interaction
2. Heating/cooling or changes in pressure changes the phase of a
substance
3. IMF forces are weaker than ionic, metallic and covalent bonds
4. Boiling points and melting points reflect the strengths of IMF
5. 4 types of IMF
1. London dispersion
2. dipole–dipole
3. Hydrogen bonding
4. Ion dipole

8. How do solids, liquids, and
gases differ?
How can you interconvert
matter between these 3
phases?

9. A Molecular Comparison of Liquids
and Solids

10. 4 types of Intermolecular Forces
1.London dispersion
2.dipole–dipole
3.Hydrogen bonding
4.Ion dipole

11. London Dispersion Forces
• London dispersion forces exist between all
molecules
• Instantaneous dipole
• Polarizability – ease of electron cloud distortion
• The larger the molecule (the greater the number of
electrons) the more polarizable.
• As molecular weight increases, LDF increases.

12. London Dispersion Forces
• Depend on the shape of the molecule.
– The greater the surface area available for contact, the
greater the dispersion forces.
– London dispersion forces between spherical molecules
are lower than between rod-like molecules.

13. Which of these has the greatest London
Dispersion force?
Cl2, Br2, I2
Propane vs. octane
He, Ne, Ar

14. Dipole-Dipole Forces (stronger than LD)
•
•
•
•
exist between polar covalent molecules
Permanent Dipole
What is a dipole?
How do we know if a molecule is polar?
(meaning the molecule has a dipole)

15. Polarity of Molecules
Dipole Moments of Polyatomic Molecules
Example: in CO2, each C-O dipole is canceled
because the molecule is linear. In H2O, the H-O
dipoles do not cancel because the molecule is bent.

16. Polarity of Molecules
Which of these are polar? Nonpolar?

17. Polarity of Molecules
Which of these are polar? Nonpolar?
Have dipole-dipole
interactions
Boron trifluoride and carbon tetrafluoride are non
polar and do not have dipole dipole interactions

18. Intermolecular Forces
Dipole-Dipole Forces
• There is a mix of attractive
and repulsive dipole-dipole
forces as the molecules
tumble.
• If two molecules have
about the same mass and
size, then dipole-dipole
forces increase with
increasing polarity.

20. Boiling Point vs. Molecular Weight
• The nonpolar series
(SnH4 to CH4) follow
the expected trend.
• The polar series
follows the trend
from H2Te through
H2S, but water is
quite an anomaly.
Liquid at room temp
Gases at room temp

21. Hydrogen Bonds
• The dipole-dipole
interactions experienced
when H is bonded to
N, O, or F are unusually
strong.
• We call these interactions
hydrogen bonds.
• Must have a lone pair of
electrons on N,O,F

22. Which of the following molecules
has hydrogen bonding?
a. NH3
b. CH3OH
c. H2O
d. HF
e. all of the above
CH3CH2OH
CH3OCH3
CH3CH2COOH

23. Intermolecular Forces
Hydrogen Bonding
Ice is less dense than liquid water

24. Intermolecular Forces
Ion-Dipole Forces (only with water solutions)
•Ionic compounds dissolve to form ions that interact
with the polar solvents. This is why ionic
compounds dissolve in polar solvents and do not
dissolve in non-polar solvents.

25. Intermolecular Forces
Ion-Dipole Forces (only with water solutions)
•Ionic compounds dissolve to form ions that interact
with the polar solvents. This is why ionic
compounds dissolve in polar solvents and do not
dissolve in non-polar solvents.
