the three concepts for VB Theory.

The atomic orbitals around the central atom are considered when predicting bonding between atoms Atomic orbitals combine to form hybridized orbitals Electrons are localized

When two orbitals combine in MO Theory, two new molecular orbitals are formed: one bonding orbital and one anti-bonding orbital.

The bonding orbital is ALWAYS lower in energy than the anti-bonding orbital. All anti-bonding orbitals are given the symbol, *

ion-ion interactions

These electrostatic interactions are relatively easy to identify because they exist in any lattice that contains cations and anions.

Can nonpolar compounds have dispersion forces?

Yes, all molecules have dispersion forces.

In Lewis structures, a solid line is used to represent...

a covalent bond

nonpolar covalent bond

a covalent bond in which the electrons are shared equally by the two atoms

Hydrogen bonding is a special case of extreme dipole-dipole forces. It can only occur when

a hydrogen atom is bonding directly to one of these three electronegative atoms: fluorine, oxygen, and nitrogen. A hydrogen bond is formed between the partially positive hydrogen atom from molecule A and the electronegative atom from molecule B.

Viscosity

a liquids resistance to flow

If the anions and cations can pack tightly together (i.e. small ions), it will require

a lot of energy to separate the solid into gaseous ions.

If the anions and cations have a strong electrostatic interaction (i.e. large charges), it will require

a lot of energy to separate the solid into gaseous ions.

paramagnetic

a molecule with at least one unpaired electrons

diamagnetic -

a molecule with no unpaired electrons

Ammonia (NH3) can form hydrogen bonds with neighboring molecules. This intermolecular force is formed from

a nitrogen atom in one molecule and a hydrogen atom in another molecule. This strong attraction is a direct result of the electronegativity difference in the covalent bond between nitrogen and hydrogen in a single ammonia molecule.

Surface tension -

a property of liquids that arises because the molecules at the surface of a liquid have higher energy than the molecules in the middle of the liquid

The electronegativity of H is...

about equal to that of C.

covalent solid -

all atoms bonded with covalent bonds

molecular solid

all molecules connected with IMFs

the guiding principle of lewis structures is that

atoms tend to arrange in ionic or molecular clusters to satisfy the octet rule (i.e. to try to achieve noble gas configuration).

The hotter the temperature, the more energy a system can use to

break the IMFs between neighboring molecules.

molecular solids characteristics

Consider a situation in which you discover an unknown solid. After examining the solid, you know that all atoms are nonmetals and that they share their electrons equally. You determine that the melting point is 277 °C. What type of solid did you find?

covalent

S(g) + e- → S-(g)

electron affinity

The energy that is gained by forming the anion.

electron affinity

a large atom with a small effective nuclear charge will not be very

electronegative

the valence electrons for elements in each group are

essentially the same

Vapor pressure is a liquid property related to

evaporation

A small atom with a large effective nuclear charge will be

extremely electronegative

Dispersion forces

extremely weak electrostatic interactions between neighboring molecules and/or atoms. Every system can exhibit dispersion forces, which means that all molecules and atoms have dispersion forces. Dispersion forces are induced-dipole induced-dipole forces that arise from fluctuation in the arrangement of the electrons around a molecule. If there is a fluctuation that leads to the molecule having an instantaneous dipole, this dipole will induce a dipole in a neighboring molecule. This will in turn induce another dipole in another neighbor. The induced dipole effect will propagate throughout the whole system.

focuses on bonding throughout a molecule All atomic orbitals are considered when predicting bonding across the molecule Atomic orbitals combine to form molecular orbitals Electrons are delocalized

ionization energy

a structure can show resonance if

it has at least one double or triple bond.

As an atom's radius decreases...

The degree to which a molecule has dispersion forces is measured by

its polarizability. The more electrons a molecule has and the farther they are from all the nuclei, the more likely a dipole can be induced in the electron cloud (aka: polarized).

The energy that is gained by bringing the cation and anion together.
