Based on the table that you have
written in the mentimeter, I believe
some of you already have some Google meet/Zoom
prior knowledge regarding our topic Breakout Rooms

Intermolecular Force of Attraction.

Now at this moment, I will be

you into different private breakout

Those are some interesting questions

you have asked, now as we go
through today’s discussion, later on
we will try to find out and unravel
the answers to the questions
each group has presented.

between neighboring molecules. (Through Google
There are four common types, Docs)
namely: Ion-dipole force, London
dispersion forces, Dipole-dipole,
and Hydrogen bonds.

Ion-dipole force exists between an

ion and the partial charge on the end
of a polar molecule. Polar molecules
have dipoles, that is, they have
partial positive and partial negative
ends.

London dispersion forces are

present in molecules, regardless of
the polarity. This is the weakest
among the intermolecular forces.

Dipole-dipole forces are present

only in polar molecules (i.e., those
with a net dipole moment). This
kind of force is stronger than
London dispersion forces because
polar molecules have a permanent
uneven distribution of electrons.

Hydrogen bond is a special type of

dipole-dipole interaction that occurs
in molecules having a hydrogen
atom bonded to an
electronegative atom such as
fluorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. It is
the strongest intermolecular force of
attraction among the three.

Exercises:
1. Arrange the following types
of interactions in order of
increasing stability: covalent
bond, van der Waals force,
hydrogen bonding, dipolr-
dipole interaction.
2. Which has the highest boiling
point: H2, He, Ne, Xe, CH4?
3. Which is expected to have the
highest melting point: PH3,
NH3, (CH3)3N? Explain why.

ANSWER KEY

ANSWERS;
1.Van der Waals < dipole-dipole
interaction < hydrogen bonding <
covalent bond
2.Xe. All are nonpolar molecules
but Xe has the greatest van der
Waals force because it has the most
electrons.
3. NH3 has the strongest
intermolecular forces which is
hydrogen bonding, thus, it is
expected to have the highest
melting point.
ELABORATE – (Students apply the information learned in the Explain. The teacher will
give inputs to deepen the understanding of the students) 10 minutes
Very Good, everyone did a very
good job in presenting your groups’
answers in class and it seems that
you have already grasped and
understood what our topic for today
really is.

Now that you have understood the

topic well, let us go back to the
questions that each group has
formulated earlier. Let us have the
questions formulated by every group
be answered by another group.

(The question formulated by group 1

will be answered by group 2; group (The students will try two

forces are methane (CH4), the
simplest hydrocarbon. It is a non-
polar molecule, and
is not capable of any other type of
intermolecular force of attraction.
Another
example of a hydrocarbon is octane
(C8H18), a nonpolar molecule that

London dispersion forces as well.
Since octane is a bigger molecule
than methane,

the former is capable of stronger
dispersion forces. An example of
dipole-dipole
attraction can be seen in hydrogen
chloride (HCl). This is because the
electronegativity difference between
the H and the Cl atoms make the
covalent
bond between them polar. Lastly,
hydrogen bonds can be seen in a
water molecule
(H2O) because hydrogen is bonded
to a highly electronegative atom
which is
oxygen.

Directions: Choose one type of IMFA and answer these questions:

Critical Thinking Questions:
1. What type of attraction did you choose?
2. Is your IMFA weak or strong? Explain,
