Study Notes
Intermolecular Forces
- Attractive forces between molecules.
-
Dipole-Dipole Forces
- Attractive forces between polar molecules.
- Polar molecules have a permanent dipole moment.
- Polar molecules have higher melting and boiling points compared to nonpolar molecules of similar molar mass.
-
Hydrogen Bonding
- Special case of dipole-dipole forces.
- Occurs between hydrogen atoms bonded to F, N, or O and F, N, and O atoms bonded to hydrogen atoms.
- Particularly strong in biological systems like DNA.
-
Ion-Dipole forces
- Attractive forces between an ion and a polar molecule.
- A negative ion attracts the positive dipole of another molecule.
- A positive ion attracts the negative dipole of another molecule.
-
Ion-Ion Force (Ionic Bond)
- The strongest intermolecular force.
- Ion-ion forces increase as the size of the ion decreases and as the magnitude of the charge increases.
- Anions are larger than the atoms they are derived from, while cations are smaller.
-
London Dispersion Forces/ Van Der Waals Forces
- Interactions involving induced dipoles.
- Non-polar molecules lack a permanent dipole moment but exhibit transient dipoles due to electron movement.
- These are weak forces.
Lewis Structure
- Created by Gilbert Lewis in 1916.
- Represents the structural formula of compounds.
- Shows the arrangement of atoms and bonds within a compound.
- Uses valence electrons (outermost electrons).
- One dot = one valence electron
- One dash = one covalent bond = two electrons
Lewis Dot Structure
- Illustrates valence electron arrangement in a molecule.
- Supports the idea that a compound’s stability relates to the octet rule.
- Shared electron pairs form covalent bonds and can be represented by two dots or by a single line.
HONC rule
- Hydrogen and Halogens form one covalent bond.
- Oxygen and Sulfur form two covalent bonds - one double bond or two single bonds.
- Nitrogen and Phosphorus form three covalent bonds - one triple bond, three single bonds, or one double and one single bond.
- Carbon and Silicon form four covalent bonds - two double bonds, four single bonds, one triple and one single bond, or one double and two single bonds.
Lewis Dot Structures - Compounds
- Hydrogen needs two valence electrons for stability.
- Exception: Boron needs only six valence electrons for stability.
- Atoms in the third row and below can violate the octet rule.
Carbon-Based Molecules
- Multiple carbon compounds involve carbons connected together.
- Examples include Ethane, Ethene, Ethyne, Ethanol, Formaldehyde, Benzene, and Acetic Acid.
Molecular geometry
- Based on Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) Theory.
- Electron pairs around a central atom arrange themselves as far apart as possible.
- You should be familiar with five molecular shapes.
- Compounds take a 3D shape based on the:
- Number of atoms attached
- Number of unbonded electrons present
-
Linear:
- Carbon as the central atom surrounded by two oxygen atoms.
- No unbonded electrons on carbon.
- Look for AX2 geometry (central atom is group 14).
-
Bent:
- Oxygen as the central atom.
- Central atom is typically group 16.
- Surrounded by two atoms (H or halogens).
- Two unbonded electron pairs on oxygen push hydrogens out of the plane.
-
Trigonal Pyramidal:
- Nitrogen surrounded by three hydrogen atoms (or halogens).
- One pair of unbonded electrons pushing hydrogens out of the plane.
-
Trigonal Planar:
- Boron as the central atom surrounded by three fluorine atoms (or H or other halogens).
- No unbonded electrons on boron, fluorine atoms stay within a single plane.
-
Tetrahedral:
- AX4 formula.
- Carbon (or silicon) surrounded by four hydrogen (or halogens).
Polarity
-
Bond Polarity:
- Difference in electronegativity between two atoms in a chemical bond.
- Non-polar bonds have a difference in electronegativity less than or equal to 0.4.
- Polar bonds have a difference in electronegativity between 0.5 and 1.6.
- Ionic bonds have a difference in electronegativity greater than 1.6.
Molecular Polarities
- Polar molecules occur when electrons are not distributed equally.
- Look for symmetry within the molecule.
- Symmetrical molecules are non-polar.
- Asymmetrical molecules are polar.
- Polar shapes include Trigonal Pyramidal and Bent.
- Nonpolar shapes include Linear, Trigonal Planar, and Tetrahedral.
Properties of Liquids
-
Surface Tension:
- The property allowing a liquid's surface to resist an external force due to cohesive forces between molecules.
-
Viscosity:
- A fluid's (liquid or gas) resistance to change in shape or movement between neighboring portions.
-
Vapor Pressure:
- A measure of a material's tendency to change into the gaseous state.
-
Boiling Point:
- The temperature at which vapor pressure equals the standard sea-level atmospheric pressure.
-
Molar Heat of Vaporization:
- The amount of heat required to vaporize 1 mole of liquid.
Properties of Water
- Composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
- Electrostatic attraction between hydrogen (positive) and oxygen (negative) leads to hydrogen bonding.
- Hydrogen bonding creates unique properties.
-
Boiling and Freezing Point:
- Water has a high boiling point due to strong hydrogen bonding.
- Boiling temperature decreases at higher elevations (lower atmospheric pressure).
- Dissolving substances in water lowers the freezing point.
- Significant heat is released during the transition from liquid water to ice.
-
Surface Tension:
- Hydrogen bonding causes high surface tension, known as capillarity.
- Surface tension facilitates energy transfer from wind to water to create waves.
-
Cohesion:
- Water molecules stick together due to hydrogen bonds.
- Surface molecules crowd together, creating a strong layer due to attraction from molecules below.
-
Adhesion:
- Water molecules stick to other substances causing wetting and clinging to living things.
-
Thermal Properties:
- Water absorbs or releases more heat than many substances per degree of temperature change.
- This makes water ideal for cooling and heat transfer in chemical processes.
-
Heat of Vaporization:
- Water requires a large amount of heat to vaporize, causing significant temperature drops during evaporation.
- Heat energy causes molecules to move faster. At high speeds, molecules overcome intermolecular attraction, detach from water, and form gas bubbles, leaving the surface.
-
pH Level:
- A neutral solution has equal hydroxide and hydrogen ions.
- It is acidic if there is a higher concentration of hydrogen ions.
- It is alkaline or basic if there is a higher concentration of hydroxide ions.
Concentration of solutions
-
Molarity:
- Number of moles of solute dissolved in one liter of solution.
- Formula: Molarity (M)= moles of solute / liters of solution
-
Molality:
- Concentration based on moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.
- Formula: Molality (m)= moles of solute / kilograms of solvent
-
Percent by mass:
- Percent by mass= (mass of solute / mass of solution) x 100%
-
Percent by volume:
- Percent by volume= (volume of solute / volume of solution) x 100%
Yield
- A measure of product moles formed relative to reactant consumed in a chemical reaction.
- Usually expressed as a percentage.
-
Theoretical yield:
- Expected amount of product after a reaction.
-
Actual yield:
- Product amount actually formed during a lab experiment.
-
Percentage yield:
- The percent ratio of actual yield to theoretical yield (Actual yield/Theoretical yield)*100%.
-
Finding percentage yield:
- (Actual yield/Theoretical yield)*100%
-
Bonus:
- Theoretical yield= (Actual yield/Percentage yield)*100%
- Actual yield = (Percentage yield/100)*Theoretical yield.
Limiting Reactant
- The reactant consumed first in a reaction, thereby limiting the amount of product formed.
Finding the Limiting Reactant
Example: H2 + O2 →H2O (4g of Hydrogen and 10g of Oxygen)
-
Step 1: Balance the equation first.
- 2H
2+ O2→ 2H2O
- 2H
-
Step 2: Divide the given grams by the atomic mass.
- For Hydrogen: 4g/1.01g/mol = 3.96 moles
- For Oxygen: 10g/16g/mol = 0.63 moles
-
Step 3: Divide each reactant’s coefficient by the quotient from step 2.
- For Hydrogen: 3.96 mol/2 = 1.98 mol
- For Oxygen: 0.63 mol/1 = 0.63 mol
- Answer: Oxygen is the limiting reactant (smallest quotient).
