 Intermolecular Forces

• The attractions between molecules are not nearly as

strong as the intramolecular attractions (bonds) that
hold compounds together.
• Many physical properties reflect intermolecular
forces, like boiling points, melting points, viscosity,
surface tension, and capillary action. Gases

 Types of Intermolecular Force
• Weakest to strongest forces:
Ødispersion forces (or London dispersion
forces)
Ødipole–dipole forces
Øhydrogen bonding (a special dipole–dipole
force)
Øion–dipole forces
o Note: The first two types are also referred
to collectively as van der Waals forces.

 Dispersion Forces
• The figure below shows how a nonpolar particle
(in this case a helium atom) can be temporarily
polarized to allow dispersion force to form.
• The tendency of an electron cloud to distort is
called its polarizability.

 Factors Which Affect Amount of
Dispersion Force in a Molecule
• number of electrons in an
atom (more electrons,
more dispersion force)
• size of atom or
molecule/molecular
weight
• shape of molecules with
similar masses (more
compact, less dispersion
force) Gases

 Polarizability & Boiling Point
• If something is more
difficult to polarize, it
has a lower boiling
point.
• Remember: This
means less
intermolecular force
(smaller molecule:
lower molecular
weight, fewer Gases

electrons).

 Dipole–Dipole Interactions
• Polar molecules have a more positive
and a more negative end–a dipole (two
poles, δ+ and δ−).
• The oppositely charged ends attract
each other.

Gases

 Dipole–Dipole Interactions

For molecules of approximately equal mass

and size, the more polar the molecule, the
higher its boiling point. Gases

 Which Have a Greater Effect:
Dipole–Dipole Interactions or
Dispersion Forces?
• If two molecules are of comparable size
and shape, dipole–dipole interactions
will likely be the dominating force.
• If one molecule is much larger than
another, dispersion forces will likely
determine its physical properties.

 What Does This Graph Show Us?
• In a group, the period
3/4/5 elements have
higher boiling points
as the group member
gets larger.
• What happens with
the period 2
elements? For group
4A, the trend is
continued. What about
for the other groups? Gases

 Hydrogen Bonding
• The dipole–dipole interactions
experienced when H is
bonded to N, O, or F are
unusually strong.
• We call these interactions
hydrogen bonds.
• A hydrogen bond is an
attraction between a hydrogen
atom attached to a highly
electronegative atom and a
nearby small electronegative
atom in another molecule or
Gases
chemical group.

 What Forms Hydrogen Bonds?
• Hydrogen bonding arises in part from the
high electronegativity of nitrogen, oxygen,
and fluorine.
• These atoms interact with a nearly bare
nucleus (which contains one proton).

 Ion–Dipole Interactions
• Ion–dipole interactions are found in solutions of ions.
• The strength of these forces is what makes it
possible for ionic substances to dissolve in polar
solvents.

Summarizing Intermolecular Forces

Gases

 Liquid Properties Affected by
Intermolecular Forces
• boiling point (previously discussed) and
melting point
• viscosity
• surface tension
• capillary action

Gases

 Viscosity 黏滞性
• Resistance of a liquid to flow is called
viscosity.
• It is related to the ease with which
molecules can move past each other.
• Viscosity increases with stronger
intermolecular forces and decreases
with higher temperature.

Gases

 Surface Tension
• Water acts as if it
has a “skin” on it
due to extra inward
forces on its
surface. Those
forces are called the
surface tension.

• Water prefers to
reduce the surface
area.

 Cohesion and Adhesion粘连
• Intermolecular forces that bind similar
molecules to one another are called
cohesive forces.
• Intermolecular forces that bind a
substance to a surface are called
adhesive forces.
• These forces are important in capillary
action.
Gases

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

 Capillary Action
• The rise of liquids up
narrow tubes is called
capillary action.
• Adhesive forces attract
the liquid to the wall of
the tube.
• Cohesive forces attract
the liquid to itself.
• Water has stronger
adhesive forces with glass;
mercury has stronger
cohesive forces with itself. Gases

 Phase Changes
• Conversion from one
state of matter to
another is called a
phase change.
• Energy is either added
or released in a phase
change.
• Phase changes:
melting/freezing,
vaporizing/condensing,
subliming/depositing.
Gases

 Energy Change & Change of State
• The heat of fusion is the energy required to change
a solid at its melting point to a liquid.
• The heat of vaporization is the energy required to
change a liquid at its boiling point to a gas.
• The heat of sublimation is the energy required to
change a solid directly to a gas.

Gases

 Heating Curves
• A plot of temperature vs.
heat added is called a
heating curve.
• Within a phase, heat is
the product of specific
heat, sample mass, and
temperature change.
• The temperature of the
substance does not rise
during a phase change.
• For the phase changes, the product of mass
Gases
and the heat of fusion of vaporization is heat.

 Vapor Pressure
• At any temperature,
some liquid molecules
have enough energy to
escape the surface and
become a gas.
• As the temperature
rises, the fraction of
molecules that have
enough energy to break
free increases.

Gases

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

 Vapor Pressure
• As more molecules
escape the liquid,
the pressure they
exert increases.
• The liquid and vapor
reach a state of
dynamic equilibrium:
liquid molecules
evaporate and vapor
molecules condense
at the same rate.
Gases

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

 Vapor Pressure
• The boiling point of
a liquid is the
temperature at which
its vapor pressure
equals atmospheric
pressure.
• The normal boiling
point is the
temperature at which
its vapor pressure is
760 torr.
Gases

© 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

 Vapor Pressure
• The natural log of the
vapor pressure of a liquid
is inversely proportional to
its temperature.
• This relationship is
quantified in the
Clausius–Clapeyron
equation.

 Phase Diagram
• A phase diagram is a graph of pressure vs.
temperature for a substance. It shows
– melting, boiling, and sublimation points at different
pressures.
– the triple point and critical point.

 Supercritical Fluids
• Gases liquefies when
pressure is applied.
• The temperature beyond
which a gas cannot be
compressed is called its
critical temperature.
The pressure needed to
compress the liquid at
critical temperature is
called critical pressure.
• The state beyond this
temperature is called a
supercritical fluid. Gases

 Phase Diagram of Water

• Note the high critical

temperature and critical
pressure.
– These are due to the
strong van der Waals
forces between water
molecules.

Gases

 Phase Diagram of Water

• Unusual feature for water:

Ø The slope of the solid–
liquid line is negative.
ü This means that as the
pressure is increased, the
melting point decreases.

Gases

 the density of ice at 0 °C (0.917 g/mL) is less than that of liquid water at 0 °C (1.00 g/mL)

Gases

Phase Diagram of Carbon Dioxide

• Unusual features for

carbon dioxide:
Ø cannot exist in the
liquid state at
pressures below
5.11 atm (triple point)
ü CO2 sublimes at
normal pressures.

 Liquid Crystals

• Some substances do not go directly from the

solid state to the liquid state.
• In this intermediate state, liquid crystals have
some traits of solids and some of liquids.
• Molecules in liquid crystals have some degree
of order.
Gases

 Liquid
Crystals
• In nematic liquid
crystals, molecules
are only ordered in
one dimension, along the long axis.
• In smectic liquid crystals, molecules are
ordered in two dimensions, along the long axis
and in layers.
• In cholesteryic liquid crystals, nematic-like
crystals are layered at angles to each other.
