What are intermolecular forces?
attraction between molecules; much weaker
What is a intramolecular force?
bonds within
What is dipole-dipole force?
the attraction of the positive end with the negative end; only occurs between polar molecules
What is a hydrogen bond?
a special dipole-dipole force involving hydrogen and fluorine, oxygen, or nitrogen; strongest
What is dispersion forces?
temporary dipoles; only on non-polar molecules
What is the order of intermolecular strength?
dispersion, dipole, h-bonding, ionic
Kinetic molecular theory for solids
What is a crystalline solid?
regular repeating pattern
What is a amorphous solid?
random positions; not orderly
What is a melting point?
the temp at which a solid turns into a liquid
What is a crystalline substance?
