100

Using what property of a molecule, is polarity determined?

Electronegativity (EN)

100

What is polarity?

Polarity is the quality of a molecule to be negatively or positively charged. This creates different types of bonds. And as we've always heard, opposites attract.

100

What is the geometry of the molecule H2O?

Bent


200

What level of Electronegativity is considered 

Nonpolar Covalent?  

What's an example?

An EN of 0-0.4


O2, I2, N2, (ect)

200

Difference between Intra And Inter Molecular forces?

Intra = Within species (Bonds represented with Solid lines.

Inter = Between species (Bonds represented by slashed line)


200

What is the shape of Carbon Dioxide COmolecule?

Linear 


300

What levels of Electronegativity is considered Mod polar?

Give an example

0.5 - 0.9

N2O (It could be any other Mod polar)

300

What are the Intra molecular forces and the inter molecular?

Hydrogen bond, Ionic, Dipole interaction, covalent,  London dispersion.

Intra -Ionic and Covalent binding 

Inter - Hydrogen bond, Dipole interaction, London dispersion.

300

What is the shape of CH2O (Formaldehyde) 

Trigonal planar


400

What level of electronegativity is considered Very polar?

Give an example?

 1.0-1.9


H2O (any other very polar molecule)

400

Define London dispersion.

Temporary dipoles are created in the electron cloud of the molecule because of electron movement. These attractions are constantly broken and reformed.


400

What is the shape of NH(Ammonia)

Trigonal Pyramid


500

What is a molecule considered when it has an electronegativity higher than 1.9?

Give an example 

Ionic 


NaCl

500

Define Dipole-dipole interaction.

The attraction between permanent Positive and Negative poles that are created by the partial positive and negative charges.
