What accurately define shape and size of a molecules?
|

|
|
What is a bonding pair?
|
defines a region in which the electrons will most likely be fond
|
|
What is a nonbonding pair?
|
lone pair, defines an electron domain which is located principally on one atom
|
|
What produces an electron domain?
|
each nonbonding pair, single bond, or multiple bond
|
|
Whta produces the best arrangement for a given number of electrons?
|
the one that minimizes repulsions among thems
|
|
When and why do bond angles decrease?
|
they decrease when the number of nonbondinf electrons pairs increase because a bonding pair is attracted by both nuclei of the bonded atoms, but the nonbonding pair experiences less nucelar attraction so it its electron domain spreads out more
|
|
What is the the relationship between nonbonding electron domains and bonding angles?
|
electron domains for nonbonding electron pairs exert greater repulsive forces on adjacent electron domains and thus tend to compress bond angles
|
|
Who exerts a greater repulsive for on adjacent electron domains?
|
In general multiple bonds, but there are exceptions like NO3-

What are dipole-dipole forces?
|
neutral polar molecules attract each other when the positive end of one molecules is near the negative end of another
|
|
What are london dispersion forces?
|
electrons repel one another so the motions of electrons on one atom influence the motions of electrons on its neighbor, thus the temporary dipole on one atom can induce a similar temproary dipole on an adjaccent atom causing the atoms to be attracted to each other. (the wave)
