How does intermolecular forces affect bp and mp?

Weak attractions due to temporary dipoles

When a van der Waals forces contains larger surface area, what happens to the attraction between molecules?

when van der Waals forces contain less surface area, what happens to the attraction between molecules?

van der Waals forces have more branching, what happens to the attraction between molecules?

Are van der Waals attractions stronger or weaker with polarization?

interactions that take place between molecules with permanent dipoles (polar molecules)

attraction between a H atom bonded to a O, N, or F with a lone pair on another O, N, or F atom

what makes organic compounds more soluable in water?

what type of compounds to polar solvents dissolve?

what type of compounds to non-polar solvents dissolve?

Bronsted-Lowery definition of an acid

Bronsted-Lowery definition of a Base

how does the pKa affect an acid?

When is an acid - base reaction PRODUCT favored?

if the acid is STRONG, its conjugate base is...?

if the acid is WEAK, the conjugate base is ...?

Are organic acids weak or strong?

4 factors that determine conjugate base stability (therefore acidity):

as you move accross the Periodic table, what happens to acidity stregnth?

as you move down the columns on the periodic table, what happens to acid stregnth?

which is more electronegative, C or O?
which would be more stable with lone pairs? why?

Whats the difinition for a Lewis acid?

Whats the definition for a Lewis base?

Which is more broad, the Lewis or Bronsted - Lowery definition of an acid?

Are all Bronsted-Lowery acids Lewis acids?

Are all Lewis acids Bronsted-Lowery acids?

a joining of two atoms in a stable arrangement, completes outer shell of each atom (octet rule)

Type of bonding in organic compounds

bonding where electrons are being shared

what determines the properties of Carbon and other elements

what is organic chemistry?

what model is shown when chemical bonds are formed by shared electron pairs

model where chemical bonds are formed by overlap of singly occupied atomic orbitals

Why do we use valence bond theory to show our molecules in Organic Chemistry?

model where bonds are described using molecular orbitals - mathematical combinations of atomic orbitals

charge assigned to a specific atom in a chemical structure
(valence e^- - "owned" e^-)

a TRUE STRUCTURE for a molecule

how does resonance structures affect stability?

a combination of orbitals
