Intermolecular Forces and Bonding and Naming Ionic Compounds

What type of intermolecular force is responsible for the high boiling point of water?

• Ionic bonding

• Covalent bonding

• Van der Waals forces

• Hydrogen bonding

Explain the difference between dipole-dipole interactions and London dispersion forces.

• London dispersion forces occur between molecules with permanent dipoles, while dipole-dipole interactions occur between nonpolar molecules.

• Dipole-dipole interactions occur between nonpolar molecules, while London dispersion forces occur between polar molecules.

• Dipole-dipole interactions are stronger than London dispersion forces.

• Dipole-dipole interactions occur between polar molecules with permanent dipoles, while London dispersion forces occur between nonpolar molecules due to temporary dipoles.

How do London dispersion forces arise in nonpolar molecules?

• Ionic interactions between molecules

• Permanent dipole moments in the molecule

• Temporary fluctuations in electron distribution

• Covalent bond formation between molecules

What type of bonding is present in sodium chloride (NaCl)?

• Ionic bonding

• Hydrogen bonding

• Metallic bonding

• Covalent bonding

Describe the difference between ionic and covalent bonding.

• Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons between atoms, while covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons between atoms.

• Ionic bonding and covalent bonding are the same thing.

• Ionic bonding involves the sharing of electrons between atoms, while covalent bonding involves the transfer of electrons between atoms.

• Ionic bonding and covalent bonding both involve the transfer of electrons between atoms.
