Lecture 4.2 – Intermolecular Forces and the Dissolving Process

Today’s Learning Targets LT 4.1 – I can discuss how ionic solids dissolve due to the random molecular motion of the water molecules. LT 4.2 – I can identify a compound as containing hydrogen bonding, dipole – dipole forces, and Van der Waals forces. LT 4.3 – I can compare and contrast various intermolecular forces and relate them to the dissolving process of a solid.

Watch Mr. Astor Cook Pepperonis Why do pepperoni pizzas taste so delicious? What substance is creating the taste?

Explanation for Deliciousness Fats are basically long carbon chains, and how well they pack at low temperatures is determined by how long they are and how many kinks they have in the chain from C=C double bonds. Liquid fats (like oils) have lots of kinks (also called unsaturations) that prevent it from packing tightly when cold, so they stay liquid. When you cook pepperoni, these fats are effectively rendered - they melt, dissolving out some of the colour and flavour compounds from the meat and spices. The fat acts as a nonpolar organic solvent, drawing out some nonpolar compounds in the meat you may find delicious. Lots of flavorful substances dissolve in fat better than in water, like capcaisin (from chili peppers) and cinnamic acid (from cinnamon).

What are intermolecular forces?

I. Intermolecular Forces Intermolecular forces are forces that attract molecules to one another. The three main types of intermolecular forces are: (1) Hydrogen Bonding (2) Dipole-Dipole Forces (3) Dispersion Force (also known as Van der Waals Forces)

Pulls electrons towards itself because it has a higher electronegativity δ- δ+ Partial negative charge H F This is what a dipole looks like

III. Dipole-Dipole Forces Dipole-dipole forces refer to the attraction between molecules that have a permanent dipole.

What Dipole-Dipoles Look Like Partial negative attracted to the partial positive

III. Dispersion Forces Some molecules have an induced dipole. Dispersion forces are the intermolecular forces resulting from the uneven distribution of electrons and the creation of temporary dipoles. Weakest intermolecular force

But, when two H2 molecules are put next to one another, a dipole is induced because electrons rearrange themselves There is no electronegativity difference between two hydrogens, so they are non-polar and do not have a dipole

What the Heck?

IV. Hydrogen Bonding Hydrogen bonding is the attraction of one molecule that contains hydrogen to another molecule. When hydrogen is bound to N, O, or F, there is a large difference in electronegativity Creates a partial positive and negative charge The partial positive charge on hydrogen is attracted to N, O, or F of another molecule.

Hydrogen bond between H and O

V. Intermolecular Forces and Phase of Substance The degree of intermolecular forces determines the phase of a substance. Least intermolecular forces Most intermolecular forces

Let’s talk Wikispace Units 1, 2, and 3 need to be finished to completion. This means every lesson from Units 1, 2, and 3 must have a video, script, and picture. Unit 3 must have all of the Kool-Aid Molarity Lab including the excel graph portion! Need help with microsoft excel? Check out this “Microsoft Excel and Chemistry” document.
