    Today's Foci (Intra and Intermolecular Forces)

    Intramolecular Forces

    • Forces holding atoms together within a molecule

    Intermolecular Forces

    • Forces existing between molecules

    Types of Intramolecular Forces of Attraction

    • Ionic bond: Formed by complete valence electron transfer between atoms. Metals lose electrons to become positively charged cations, and nonmetals gain electrons to become negatively charged anions.

    Covalent Bond

    • Formed between atoms with similar electronegativities. Atoms share electrons to achieve stable octet configuration.
      • Nonpolar covalent bond: Atoms have similar electronegativities, sharing electrons equally.
      • Polar covalent bond: Atoms have slightly different electronegativities, leading to unequal electron sharing, resulting in partial positive and negative charges.

    Ionic vs. Covalent Bonds

    • Ionic: Metal + Nonmetal
    • Covalent: Nonmetal + Nonmetal or Metalloid + Nonmetal

    Polar Covalent Bond

    • Formed when atoms with slightly different electronegativities share electrons unequally

    Nonpolar Covalent Bond

    • Formed when atoms with similar electronegativities share electrons equally

    Intermolecular Forces of Attraction

    • Dipole-dipole interactions: Attractive forces between the positive end of one polar molecule and the negative end of another polar molecule.
    • Ion-Dipole Interactions: Attractive force resulting from the electrostatic attraction between an ion and a neutral molecule with a dipole.
    • Hydrogen Bonding: Special type of dipole-dipole interaction between hydrogen bonded to O, N, or F and slightly negative atoms of another molecule
    • London Dispersion Forces: Weakest intermolecular force caused by temporary dipoles created by electron movement. Stronger as the number of electrons increases.

    Strength of Intermolecular Forces

    • Ion-dipole > Hydrogen Bonding > Dipole-dipole > London Dispersion

    Johannes Diderik van der Waals

    • Dutch scientist who studied the non-ideal behavior of real gases and attributed it to intermolecular forces.

    Dipole-dipole Interactions

    • Attractive forces between the positive end of one polar molecule and the negative end of another. 

    Summary of Polar Molecules

    • Polar molecules have partial negative and positive ends, which attract each other.

    Dipole-Dipole Forces

    • Much weaker than ionic or covalent bonds

    Summary of Ion-Dipole Interactions

    • Attractive force between an ion and a neutral polar molecule
    • Common in solutions
    • Positive ion attracts the partially negative end of the neutral polar molecule

    Summary of Hydrogen Bonding

    • Special type of dipole-dipole attraction
    • Hydrogen of one molecule attracted to the electronegative atom of another (O, N, F) in another molecule.

    London Dispersion Forces

    • Weakest type of intermolecular force
    • Exist between all molecules due to temporary dipole formation caused by electron movement
    • Stronger with more electrons.

    Examples of Intermolecular Interactions

    • Includes various molecules and examples of different types of intermolecular forces.
