A somewhat review of bonding and characteristics

atoms joined by strong covalent bonds
 insoluble in all solvents (polar or non-polar)
 high mp and bp
 e- firmly held in place therefore no
conductivity

› exception is graphite and graphene that have
moving electrons
 held
tight by strong electrostatic forces
in between cations and anions
 non-volatile, high mp, high bp
 solid at room temp
 hard and brittle because of
lattice/crystalline structure
 conductivity
› non-mobile e- as solid = no
› ions move freely when melted = yes
› cations and ions separate when dissolved
in water = yes
 soluble
in polar solvents like water
 strong
intramolecular forces, weak
intermolecular forces, usually liquids or
gases at room temp or soft solid
› strength of polarity and strength of
London forces determine mp and bp
 greater polarity = higher mp and bp
 greater van der Waals’ = higher mp and bp
 often
dissolve in nonpolar solvents but
not in strong polar solvents like water

do not conduct electricity
 high mp and bp
› decreases going down the periodic table
 harder for cations to attract the sea of
electrons
› increases going across the periodic table
 atomic radii becomes smaller, easier to attract
the sea of electrons
 low
volatility
 not soluble in most solvents (polar or
non-polar)

conduct electricity well because of
moving sea of electrons

from highest to lowest
1. macromolecular (giant) covalent molecules
 very strong intermolecular forces hold molecules
together

diamonds, silicon dioxide, graphite (boils at 4830°C)
2. metallic bonds
3. ionic bonds (cations and anions)
4. hydrogen bonding (strong δ+ or δ-)
 very strong when H is bonded with NOF
(nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine)
5. dipole - dipole *δ+ or δ-)
6. London forces (weak, temporary δ+ or δ-)

generally speaking
› the greater the intermolecular force (IMF)
between the molecules, the higher the
melting point, boiling point, and volatility
(evaporate)
 more electrons help increase the van der
Waals’ forces and keep the substance in the
these round
liquid state
shapes do
this flat shape
allows ittomolecules that can stick together better NOT allow
them to stick
stick to one
remain a liquid at higher temps.
to one
another
better
another
boiling point increases
Exampe: two Lewis structures for the formula
C2H6O. Compare the boiling points of the
two molecules.
hydrogen bonding can
occur here which is the
strongest type of dipole :
dipole intermolecular force
ethanol - higher BP
only normal dipole : dipole
bonding can take place
dimethyl ether - lower BP

“like dissolves like”
› polar substances tend to dissolve in polar
solvents (ex. water dissolves ionic
compounds)
 dissociation of salt YouTube (:53)
› non-polar substances tend to dissolve in
non-polar solvents (ex. alcohol dissolves
covalent molecules)

giant network covalent molecules and
metals do not dissolve in most solvents

The dipoles of water
attract, pushing the
oil (with no partial
charge) out of the
way: attractions win
out over the
tendency toward
randomness.

substances must possess Freely Moving
Charged Particles
› this occurs in…
 metals with their “sea of electrons”
 YouTube (1:05)
 molten ionic compounds (+ and – ions can
move)
 http://www.dynamicscience.com.au/tester/solutions/
chemistry/bonding/bonding5.htm
 ionic compounds in aqueous solution
(dissolved in water)
 water pulls apart + and – ions and allows them to
move
 graphite (delocalized electrons move
between the layers)
