What’s New
Before we start, you should be familiar with the following relevant
vocabulary that will be used in the lesson:

Phase

system but separated from these other parts by well-defined boundaries.

Condensed phases
Liquids and solids

Intramolecular forces and intermolecular forces


Intermolecular forces are attractive forces between molecules.
Intramolecular forces hold atoms together in a molecule.

What is It
A. Kinetic Molecular Model of Liquids and Solids

The experimental findings about the behavior of gases can be explained with a
simple theoretical model known as the kinetic molecular theory. This theory is based
on the following assumptions:

1. All matter is made of tiny particles.


2. These particles are in constant motion.
3. The speed of particles is proportional to temperature. Increased temperature
means greater speed.
4. Solids, liquids, and gases differ in distances between particles, in the freedom
of motion of particles, and in the extent to which the particles interact.
*For an animation showing the motion of particles in a solid, liquid or gas, the lesson below may be viewed. At
http://preparatorychemistry.com/KMT_flash.html

Liquids and solids differ from gases in that their particles are much closer
together. They are collectively called as condensed phases because their particles are
in virtual contact. To fully understand their properties, examine their kinetic molecular
models as shown in Figure 1 below.
The Condensed State: Liquids and Solids
• In liquids, the molecules are so close
together that there is very little empty
space between them. Liquids are much
more difficult to compress and they are
much denser at normal conditions.

• Molecules in a liquid are held together


by one or more types of attractive forces.
However, the molecules can move past
one another freely. Liquids can flow, can
be poured and assumes the shape of its
container.

• In a solid, molecules are held tightly in


position with virtually no freedom of
motion. There is even less empty space

B. Intermolecular Forces of Attraction

Intermolecular forces are attractive forces that act between molecules or particles in
the liquid or solid states. These attractive forces are generally much weaker than
bonding forces.
The strength of intermolecular forces operating in solids and liquids can be
indicated by their melting and boiling points. Particles move away from each other
when a solid melts, or a liquid boils. As particles move away, intermolecular forces of
attraction are broken. Larger amount of energy is needed when the intermolecular
forces to be broken are stronger, hence, the higher the melting and boiling points.

The different types of intermolecular forces are the following:

1. Dispersion forces- when temporary dipole moment is induced in ordinarily


nonpolar molecule, dispersion forces result. These forces are present among all types
of molecules because of the movement of electrons. An uneven distribution causes
momentary charge separations as electrons move around the nucleus. Slightly
negative sides of a molecule are attracted to the slightly positive sides of the adjacent
molecule.

(b) Distortion caused by the approach of a cation.
(c) Distortion caused by the approach of a dipole.
Image obtained from http://www.mikeblaber.org/oldwine/chm1045/notes/Forces/Intermol/Forces02.html

What attractive interaction occurs in nonpolar substances? As being shown in


Figure 2, if we place charged (ion) or a polar molecule near an atom (or a nonpolar
molecule), the electron distribution of the atom (or molecule) is distorted by the force
exerted by the ion or polar molecule, resulting to a kind of dipole.

The dipole in the atom (or nonpolar molecule) is said to be an induced dipole
because the separation of positive and negative charges in the atom (or nonpolar
molecule) is due to the proximity of an ion or a polar molecule. The attractive
interaction between a polar molecule and the induced dipole is called dipole-induced
dipole interaction and the attractive interaction between an ion and the induced dipole
is called ion-induced dipole interaction.

The ease with the electron distribution in the atom (or molecule) can be
distorted or polarizability of an atom can also influence dipole moments. Generally,
the more diffused the electron cloud in the atom or molecule and the larger the number
of electrons, the greater is its polarizability. Diffuse cloud is an electron cloud that is
spread over an appreciable volume, so that the electrons are not held tightly by the
nucleus.

Dispersion forces may be the weakest of intermolecular forces that can exist
between two molecules, but the larger the atoms present, the stronger are the
dispersion forces. For example, F2, the lightest halogen, is a gas, Br2 is a liquid, and
the heavier I2, is a solid at room conditions. Further, the more atoms that make up the
molecules, the stronger are the dispersion forces. Methane, CH4, is gaseous, but
larger hydrocarbons like butane, C4H10 is liquid, and those with larger number of
carbon atoms, like the waxes, are solids at room temperature.

2. Dipole-dipole forces
Dipole-dipole forces are attractive forces between polar molecules (molecules that
possess dipole moments). In polar molecules, the electrons are unequally distributed
due to the difference of the electronegativities of the atoms. The partial positive side
of one molecule is attracted to the partial negative side of another molecule. Dipole-
dipole forces are stronger than the dispersion forces because polar molecules have a
permanent unequal spread of electrons. The nature of attraction is electrostatic and
can be explained in terms of Coulomb’s law: the larger the dipole moment, the
stronger the attraction.

Figure 3. Attractive Dipole-Dipole Interactions. Image obtained from


http://www.mikeblaber.org/oldwine/chm1045/notes/Forces/Intermol/Forces02.htm

3. Ion-Dipole Forces

Ion-dipole forces attract an ion (either a cation or an anion) and a polar


molecule to each other (Figure 4). These types of forces can also be explained by
Coulomb’s law. The charge and size of the ion, the magnitude of the dipole moment
and size of the molecule greatly influence the strength of this interaction. A cation
interacts more strongly with dipoles than does an anion having a charge of the same
magnitude because the charges on cations are generally more concentrated, for the
reason that cations are usually smaller than anions.

(b) In aqueous solutions, metal ions are usually surrounded by
six water molecules in an octahedral arrangement.

Figure 4 shows the ion-dipole interaction between the sodium and magnesium
ions with a water molecule, which has a large dipole moment. Because the Mg2+ ion
has a smaller ionic radius (78 pm) and a higher charge than that of the Na+ ion (98
pm), it interacts more strongly with water molecules. (In reality, each ion is enclosed
by a number of water molecules in solution.) Similar differences exist for anions of
different charges and sizes.

4. Hydrogen bond
Hydrogen bond is a generally strong force of attraction. It is a special type of dipole-
dipole interaction between the hydrogen atom in a polar bond, such as N‒H, O‒H, or
F‒H, and an electronegative O, N, or F atom. Hydrogen bonds between water
molecules are particularly strong.

The interaction is written as:

A ‒ H ••• B or A ‒ H ••• A

A and B represent O, N, or F; A ‒ H is one molecule or part of a molecule and A or B


is a part of another molecule; the dotted line represents the hydrogen bond.
Examples of hydrogen bonding are demonstrated in the molecules of water (H2O),
ammonia (NH3) and hydrogen fluoride (HF):

Appendix A. Notes on Molecular Polarity

To determine the polarity of a molecule, both the overall shape of the molecule and
the bonds present should be considered. Two or more polar bonds may cancel each
other out leading to a nonpolar molecule.

A molecule will be nonpolar if:


• All of the terminal atoms (or groups) are the same
• All of the terminal atoms (or groups) are symmetrically designated around the
central atom
• The terminal atoms (or groups) have equal or the same charges
• Example: CO2

A molecule will be polar if:


• One or more terminal atoms differ from each other.
• At least one polar bond is present.
• The terminal atoms are not symmetrically arranged
• The molecule has one slightly positive end and one slightly negative end.
• Example: H2O

Summary:

All substances exist in one of three states: gas, liquid, or solid. The major
difference between the condensed state and the gaseous state is the distance
separating their molecules. Substances that are gases or liquids at room temperature
are usually composed of molecules. In gases the intermolecular attractive forces are
negligible compared to the kinetic energies of the molecules; thus, the molecules are
widely separated and undergo constant, chaotic motion. In liquids the intermolecular
forces are strong enough to keep the molecules in close proximity; nevertheless, the
molecules are free to move with respect to one another. In solids the intermolecular
attractive forces are strong enough to restrain molecular motion and to force the
particles to occupy specific locations in a three-dimensional arrangement.

Intermolecular forces act between molecules or between molecules and ions.


Generally, these attractive forces are much weaker than bonding forces. Dipole-dipole
forces and ion-dipole forces attract molecules with dipole moments to other polar
molecules or ions. Dispersion forces are the result of temporary dipole moments
induced in ordinarily nonpolar molecules. The extent to which a dipole moment can be
induced in a molecule is called its polarizability. The term “van der Waals forces” refers
to dipole-dipole, dipole-induced dipole, and dispersion forces. Hydrogen bonding is a
relatively strong dipole-dipole interaction between a polar bond containing a hydrogen
atom and an electronegative O, N, or F atom. Hydrogen bonds between water
molecules are particularly strong.

3. Strategy A specie can form hydrogen bonds with water if it contains one of the
three electronegative elements (F, O, or N) or it has a H atom bonded to one of

distance between atoms in three dimensions.
What I Have Learned (Activity 3)
1. (a) The diagram best describes a liquid.
(b) In the diagram, particles are close together, mostly touching, but there is no
regular arrangement or order. This rules out a gaseous sample, where the
particles are far apart, and a crystalline solid, which has a regular repeating
structure in all three directions.
2. (a) Solid < liquid < gas
(b) gas < liquid < solid
(c) Matter in the gaseous state is most easily compressed because particles are
far apart and there is much empty space.
