the intermolecular force created between molecules with oppositely charged ends?
What is the charge on an ion when the atom loses 2 electrons?
What is the bond formed when valence electrons are transferred
the four types of intermolecular forces
dipole-dipole, hydrogen, and dispersion forces, ionic
What is the charge on an ion when the atom gains two electrons
What is the reason for higher melting/boiling points?
Greater intermolecular forces
Why does water have an unusually high boiling point?
it is held together by H bonds.
group that has 3 valence electrons
what is group 3a?
What compounds have the highest melting/boiling points
Ionic Compounds
What is the relationship between intermolecular forces and melting/boiling point?
The stronger the intermolecular forces, the higher melting/boiling point
group that loses 2 valence electrons
What are group 2a elements?
What intermolecular forces are responsible for the lowest boiling points
dispersion forces
What is the strongest of the intermolecular forces?
