London Dispersion
London recognized that the motion of electrons in an atom or
molecule can cause instantaneous & momentary dipole.
This force is known as London Dispersion (LD).
LD is determined by the formula weight (FW).
If FW is the same, LD is determined by the surface area.
Too much weight
(Fgrav) will cause
the velcro to
break.

Dipole-Dipole Forces
Dipole: a bond with a positive and a negative end.
Strength depends on electronegativity difference (END).

Dipole-Dipole Forces: The opposite ends of two or more

Dipole Moments (DM)
A Dipole moment is the measure of the polarity of a molecule.
For compounds with similar FW, the DM determines the IMF.
As the Dipole moment increases, so does the boiling point (B.P.).

Hydrogen Bonding
Hydrogen Bonding is a special bond between the H atom in
a polar bond (H—N, H—F, or H—O) and an unshared
electron pair on a neighboring F, O, or N atom.
It is much stronger than Dipole-Dipole force or LD.
Of those bonds, H—O bond is the strongest, like that in
water.
Both H—N and H—O bonds are used in bonding DNA
molecules together.
H—O E.N.D. = 1.4, H—N E.N.D. = 0.9
Comparison of H-Bonds
(H—O & H—N)
H-bond in water
2 Electron Pairs (δ-) & 2 H ends (δ+).
After 1 H-bond, bonding sites increase.
3 Electron Pairs (δ-) & 3 H ends (δ+).
Water forms endless H-Bonds.
H-bond in ammonia
1 Electron Pair (δ-) & 3 H ends (δ+).
After 1 H-bond, H ends increase.
1 Electron Pair (δ-) & 5 H ends (δ+).
The (δ-) end is hard to find;
limited H-Bonds.
H-Bond in HF is limited for the same reason.

Ionic Bonding
Ions are formed by electron transfer.
They are held together by electrostatic forces in a lattice,
causing ionic bonding. E.g. NaCl

to answer the following questions.

Which has greater London Dispersion?

Which has greater dipole attraction?
CH3CN or CH3I
Which has better overall IMF?
CH3CN or CH3I

315.6 K
Sample Exercise 2
Weaker IMF
Stronger IMF
London Dispersion << Polar << H-Bonding << Ion-Dipole << Ionic
Which has greater London Dispersion force?
(Periodic Table used to determine FW)
Why?
Xe (FW=131) or Ar (FW=40)
Xe has greater FW & therefore
more surface area.
HF b.p. = 20 °C and HCl b.p. = -85 °C.
Why does HF have a higher b.p.?
HF has H-bonding & HCl is only
polar. (See IMF figure above.)
Br2 b.p. = 59 °C and ICl b.p. = 97 °C.
Why does ICl have a higher b.p.?
ICl is polar & Br2 is non-polar.
(Both have FW ≈ 160.)
Sample Exercise 3
Weaker IMF
Stronger IMF
London Dispersion << Polar << H-Bonding << Ion-Dipole << Ionic
List the following substances in order of increasing boiling points.
BaCl2, H2, CO, HF, & Ne
1st highest Ionic Bonding:
2nd highest H-Bonding:
3rd highest Polar Bond:
4th highest Non-Polar:
5th lowest Non-Polar:
(Higher IMF = Higher BP)
BaCl2
HF
CO (slightly polar & higher FW than Ne)
Ne (higher FW than H2)
H2 (lowest FW)
Answer: H2 << Ne << CO << HF << BaCl2
Sample Exercise 4
List the substances N2, NH3, LiF, CO, & CH4 in order of increasing b.p.
LiF = Ionic Bond (strongest)
NH3 = H-Bond (2nd strongest)
CO = Polar (3rd strongest)
N2 & CH4 = Non-Polar (weakest)
N2 FW = 28
CH4 FW = 16
Answer: CH4 < N2 < CO < NH3 < LiF

H-Bonding A<B<C
H-Bonding increases with
the number of OH groups.
