  1. 1What type of bonding forms molecules?Covalent bonds
  2. 2What are the various shapes of molecules?Linear
    V-shaped
    Trigonal Planar
    Pyramidal
    Tetrahedral
  3. 3What shape is a water molecule?V-shaped
  4. 4Degrees between atoms in linear molecules180 degrees
  5. 5Degrees between atoms in a v-shaped molecule104.5 degrees
  6. 6Degrees between atoms in a trigonal planar molecule120 degrees
  7. 7Degrees between molecules in a pyramidal molecule107 degrees
  8. 8Degrees between atoms in a tetrahedral molecule109.5 degrees
  9. 9forces within an atomintramolecular forces
  10. 10forces between moleculesintermolecular forces
  11. 11intermolecular forcesvan der waals
    dipole-dipole interactions
    hydrogen bonding
  12. 12sequence of strength of repulsion abilitylone pair:lone pair > lone pair:bonding pair > bonding pair:bonding pair
  13. 13a polar molecule mustbe polar covalent
    not be symmetrical
  14. 14how can polar molecules be non-polar overall?high degree of symmetry with a geometric centre
  15. 15are intermolecular forces stronger or weaker than covalent bondsweaker
  16. 16what effect do intermolecular forces have on boiling pointthe stronger the intermolecular forces, the higher the boiling point
  17. 17van der waals forcesweak attractive forces caused by the movement of electrons within a molecule
  18. 18how do temporary dipoles form?Electrons move randomly within a bond so that at a particular point in time they may be nearer to one atom than the other which create temporary polarity.
  19. 19permanent dipoles are formed betweenpolar molecules where the positive end of one molecule is attracted to the positive end of another.
  20. 20are permanent dipoles stronger or weaker than van der waals forcesstronger
  21. 21hydrogen bondinga special type of dipole-dipole interaction, which occurs when hydrogen id bonded to small electronegative atoms such as O, N or F
  22. 22Van der Waals forces are named afterJohannes Van der Waals
