Experiment 1:
STRUCTURE, INTERMOLECULAR
FORCES AND SOLUBILITY
OBJECTIVES


To learn how to identify which
intermolecular forces exist between
organic compounds.
To investigate the relationship
between structure, intermolecular
forces and solubility using solubility
testing.

LONDON DISPERSION FORCES




The London dispersion force is the weakest intermolecular
force.
It is a temporary attractive force that results when the
electrons in two neighboring atoms occupy positions that
make the atoms form temporary dipoles.
Since electrons are constantly in motion, they can be
distributed unevenly about the nucleus. This results in the
formation of a temporary dipole.
A second atom or molecule, in turn, can be distorted by the
appearance of the dipole in the first atom or molecule
(because electrons repel one another) which leads to an
electrostatic attraction between the two atoms or
molecules.

LONDON DISPERSION FORCES


Dispersion forces are present between all molecules,
whether they are polar or nonpolar.
Larger and heavier atoms and molecules exhibit stronger
dispersion forces than smaller and lighter ones.

Compounds which contain carbons and hydrogens ONLY
possess LDF ONLY.
LESS LDF
MORE LDF
DIPOLE - DIPOLE FORCES



Dipole moment (m): Electrostatic attraction between
polar molecules.
It is a measure of the unevenness of electron density
in a bond or molecule.
It depends on both electronegativity of atoms and on
molecular geometry.

DIPOLE - DIPOLE FORCES


Dipole-dipole forces are present only in polar molecules.
They occur when the d+ end of one polar molecule is
attracted to the d- end of another.
HYDROGEN BONDING


Hydrogen bonds are a result of the large difference in
electronegativity between H and N, O, or F.
They occur when the H of one molecule attached to an O
or N is attracted to an O or N of a different molecule.

Some compounds have a H to donate to hydrogen
bonding, while others can only accept a H from other
compounds to form hydrogen bonds.

ION-DIPOLE


An ion-dipole force exists between an ion and the
partial charge on the end of a polar molecule.
They are especially important for solutions of ionic
substances in polar solvents, such as NaCl in water.
