equally? - What factors determine whether a molecule is
polar? - How do attractions between polar molecules
compare to attractions between nonpolar molecules?
2- In general, atoms on the _______ side of the
table have a greater attraction for electrons - _____________ is the most electronegative element
- Why are the noble gases crossed off?
right
fluorine
Their outer energy levels are full
3Unequal Sharing of Electrons

electrons than others, sometimes electrons are
shared _________________

HCl
6Unequal Sharing of Electrons
- If this was an ionic bond, how would the picture
be different?
The penguin would GIVE AWAY the ice cream
No sharing!

- similar to it in size
one
another
surface
higher
15Surface Tension
16Attraction Between Molecules

_______________ than the attractions among
nonpolarbut nonpolar attractions do ____________ - They explain why CO2 and N2, both normally
__________, can be stored as solids or liquids at
___________ temperatures and ___________
pressures

17Assessment Questions
- What is the difference between a polar and
nonpolar molecule?
Partial opposite charges
Partial charges cancel out
18Assessment Questions
- What determines whether a molecule is polar?
- type of atoms and shape of molecule
- mass of atoms and number of valence electrons
- type and mass of atoms
- ionization energy and number of covalent bonds
19Assessment Questions
- Why does water have a much higher boiling point
than methane? - Methane molecules are more polar, so its
molecules have stronger attractive forces. - Partial charges on the polar water molecules
increase attractive forces between molecules. - A water molecule has much more mass than a
methane molecule, so water has a higher boiling
point. - Water has a higher boiling point because its
molecules do not contain carbon atoms.
