Term
Inner-sphere
Definition

Bridged complex

Rate of electron exchange is slower than ligand exchange

Sometimes ligand exchanges

Term
Outer-sphere
Definition

Rate of electron exchange can be faster than ligand exchange

All molecules need to do is bounce into each other

Term
Ionic forces
Definition

Strongest

Between atoms and between molecules

Term
Hydrogen bonding
Definition

Second strongest

stronger dipole-dipole bond

H bonds to N, O or F

  • 3 smallest, most electronegative elements in periodic table
Term
Dipole-dipole
Definition
Polar compounds
Term
London dispersion forces
Definition

least strong

instantaneous dipole-induced dipole

dipole created at one molecule induces short-lived dipole on the other molecule

  1. Ionic
  2. Hydrogen bonding
  3. Dipole-dipole
  4. London forces
Term
Solubility of different carboned alcohols in water
Definition

Solubility decreases as number of carbons increases

Once you get to 6 carbons, London forces start to dominate and they become insoluble

4 conclusions of Kinetic Molecular Theory
Definition
  1. Average kinetic NRG of molecules is proportional to temperature (K)
  2. Gases consist of molecules whose separation is larger than the molecules themselves
  3. Molecules are in continuous random rapid motion
  4. Molecules collide with each other and with the walls of the flask, without loss of energy
