Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The interparticle forces that are unlikely to be the predominant ones in the lattice of sucrose are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The forces which initiates the interaction between the atoms of a molecule is known as the intermolecular forces. The intermolecular forces are of two types; forces of attraction and forces of repulsion. The name of the intermolecular forces are, ion-dipole forces of attraction, van der Waal’s forces, hydrogen bonding, dispersion forces and others.
The partial electrostatic forces of attraction that exists between hydrogen atom and any bonded electronegative atom like oxygen atom is known as hydrogen bonding.

- 7.74 In a lattice, a positive ion is often surrounded by eight negative ions. We might reason, therefore, that the lattice energy should be related to eight times the potential of interaction between these oppositely charged particles. Why is this reasoning too simpler?arrow_forwardBenzene is a liquid at room temperature. When mixed with water and stirred, it is noticed that the benzene separates from the water and floats in a layer on top of the water. Is benzene a polar or non-polar compound? Use the description of how it mixes with water to support your conclusion.arrow_forwardWhen considering which is stronger a covalent bond or an ionic bond why is it fair to contrast the melting points of a diamond and NaCl then to contrast the melting points of ice and NaClarrow_forward
- a) What types of elements are bonded together to make an ionic compound? Give three examples of ionic compounds. Identify the types of elements that make up the compound in each example. B) Describe how the physical state of a substance at room temperature depends on the strength of the intermolecular forces between the particles of the substance.arrow_forwardIn the crystal structure of CsCl (cesium chloride), Cs + ions form the base of a cube while a Cl− ion occupies its center (see Figure 1). Each edge of the cube measures 0.4 nm. Each electron lacks Cs + ions (therefore, the charge of each is + e), while the Cl− ion has one in excess (therefore its charge is -e). (a) What is the magnitude of the resulting electrostatic force exerted by the eight Cs + on the Cl− ion? (b) If one of the Cs + ions is missing, the crystal is said to be imperfect. What is the magnitude of the resulting electrostatic force that the seven Cs + ions then exert on the Cl− ion?arrow_forwardOf the bonding forces between atoms and molecules, which are strongest? Select one: bonds between oppositely charged ionized groups hydrogen bonds bonds between polar groups covalent bonds bonds between nearby nonpolar groupsarrow_forward
- Assuming that all of the ionic crystals have the same crystal structure, predict which of these will have the largest (most negative) lattice energy.

- You are given a list of binary compounds (only two different elements) and asked to determine the relative melting points. d) Which would you expect to have a higher melting point, CHF, or CF,.. Why? e) Why would you expect both He and O, to have low melting points? Which one would have the higher melting point and why?arrow_forwardQ4/What is the Difference between Atomic Structure and Crystal Structure?arrow_forwardIn a lattice, a positive ion is often surrounded by eight negative ions. We might reason, therefore, that the lattice energy should be related to eight times the potential of interaction between these oppositely charged particles.
