    Study Notes

    Intramolecular Forces

    • Intramolecular forces are the forces that occur within a molecule or between two atoms.
    • They are significantly stronger than intermolecular forces.

    Types of Intramolecular Forces

    • Three main types of intramolecular forces: ionic, metallic, and covalent.
    • Ionic bonds involve electrostatic attraction between positively and negatively charged ions, known as Coulombic attraction.

    Bonding Energy and Types

    • Bond energy varies according to bond types: single bonds have the lowest energy, while triple bonds have the highest energy.
    • Atoms bond to lower their potential energy, enhancing stability.

    Bond Length and Atomic Relations

    • Bond length is influenced by atomic radius; closer atoms experience increased repulsion.

    Ionic Compound Properties

    • Ionic bonds create strong attractions between metals and nonmetals, forming a crystal lattice structure.
    • Ionic compounds generally:
      • Are solid at room temperature
      • Are hard and brittle
      • Are soluble in polar solvents
      • Lack conductivity in solid form
      • Typically have high melting points

    Conductivity in Ionic Compounds

    • Ionic solids do not conduct electricity due to fixed ion positions, resulting in a neutral charge.
    • High melting points are due to strong ionic attractions that require significant energy to overcome.

    Hardness of Ionic Solids

    • Ionic solids are hard because of the strong attraction between ions in the crystal structure.
    • An external force can cause ion movement, leading to repulsion among similar ions and structural separation.

    Lattice Energy

    • Lattice energy quantifies energy change when gaseous ions form an ionic solid.
    • Greater ionic charge correlates to higher lattice energy, while smaller atoms with the same charge yield greater lattice energy.

    Metallic Bonding

    • Metallic bonding occurs between conduction electrons and positively charged metal ions, resulting in a "sea of electrons."
    • Characteristics of metallic bonds include:
      • Uniform structure
      • High conductivity
      • Malleability and ductility
      • Lustrous appearance

    Transition Metals

    • Transition metals possess numerous unpaired electrons in the d sublevel, contributing to:
      • Good conductivity
      • Malleability and ductility
      • Low volatility

    Types of Metal Alloys

    • Two primary types of metallic alloys:
      • Substitutional alloys: Host metal atoms are replaced by similar-sized metal atoms, enhancing malleability.
      • Interstitial alloys: Smaller atoms fill voids in the metal structure, increasing hardness.

    Diatomic Molecules

    • Diatomic molecules consist of two atoms in their natural state, including H, N, O, F, Cl, Br, and I.
    • Bond energy among diatomic molecules increases in the following order: I < Br < Cl < F < H < O < N.
