Two questions to guide our discussion: What are “IMF”? How are they different from Intramolecular forces (aka “Bonds”)? An O-H Covalent Bond “Water Dimer” An “H-Bond” (IMF)
A 2-minute H-Bonding Case Study: “HF Dimer”or (HF)2 R(HF) = 0.919 Å • E(H-Bond) = 3.6 kcal/mol (15.1 kJ/mol) • R(H…F) = 1.834 Å (non bond R is ~ 2.7 Å !!!) • Donor Bond lengthens: R(HF, “A”) = 0.924 Å • Charge rearrangement: - more polarity - partial e- transfer (0.05 e-) B A Data are from a quantum chemical computation… (MP4/aug-cc-pVTZ)
Three key questions for identifying IMF? 1) Are ions present? 2) Are polar molecules present? 3) Are there molecules with OH, NH of FH bonds? What type of IMF are present in the following liquids? CH3OH, C6H6, KBr(aq), Kr DISP D-D H-B DISP Ion-D DISP D-D H-B DISP D-D H-B
