Introduction: |
This unit will cover the how the number of
bonds in covalent molecules shapes the 3-D shape of the molecule, how
electronegativity differences allow for dipoles to form, how the sum of
dipole forces determine the polarity of the molecule, and how molecules
and ions interact through weak connections called molecular interactions.

|
Terms: You should be able to define and give examples for the following terms: |
|
|
|
Objectives:
These basic skills should be mastered. This means you need to WRITE out
the answers to these objectives- the form the written review takes
is up to you. It can be an outline, idea web, flashcards, short answer,
etc. |

5. Explain how hydrogen bonding (a specific dipole-dipole molecular attraction) plays a role in: > the freezing of water in creating a solid that floats (ice; see p.172-73 for a reminder) > the high boiling point of water relative to it�s mass > the ability of water to remain a fluid on earth > the ability of water to dissolve ionic & polar substances > the ability of water to induce dipoles in oxygen and carbon dioxide > the ability of water to transport dissolved substances
> creating surface tension |

9.
Given two molecules or ionic crystals, be able to predict their relative
melting points and boiling points based on their electronegativity and
atomic radius. |
|
9.
Explain how
London Forces (or van der
Waal attractions) or induced dipole-induced dipole
interactions can hold nonpolar molecules together. |
|
10. Describe how to use solvents to separate molecules based on their mass and polarities. |
|
11. Explain how soaps & detergents work. How do they make water �wetter�? |
