Intramolecular vs Intermolecular Forces: Fun Examples for Kids

Intermolecular and Intramolecular Forces in Chemistry - A comprehensive exploration of molecular bonding forces and their effects on physical properties.

Intramolecular forces maintain molecular structure through covalent and ionic bonds
Intermolecular forces include hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces, and London dispersion forces
• Physical properties like boiling points and surface tension are directly influenced by these forces
• Real-world applications range from water's unique properties to gecko feet adhesion

Page 2: Van der Waals Forces and London Dispersion Forces

This page delves into the various types of van der waals forces and their significance in molecular interactions, including dipole interactions and London dispersion forces.

Definition: Van der waals forces are intermolecular forces resulting from temporary electron distribution changes, encompassing several types of molecular interactions.

Example: Gecko feet demonstrate practical application of van der waals forces, enabling them to adhere to smooth surfaces through molecular interactions.

Highlight: London dispersion forces are the weakest type of intermolecular force but are universal, affecting both polar and nonpolar substances.

Vocabulary: Dipole-induced dipole interactions occur when polar molecules influence electron distribution in nearby nonpolar molecules.

Example: The strength of London dispersion forces increases with molecular weight, explaining why heavier compounds have stronger intermolecular attractions.

I love this app so much [...] I recommend Knowunity to everyone!!! I went from a C to an A with it :D

Stefan S, iOS User

The application is very simple and well designed. So far I have found what I was looking for :D

SuSSan, iOS User

Love this App ❤️, I use it basically all the time whenever I'm studying

Page 1: Fundamental Forces and Hydrogen Bonding

This page introduces the crucial distinction between intramolecular vs intermolecular forces. Intramolecular forces operate within molecules through covalent or ionic bonds, while intermolecular forces function between molecules, affecting substance properties.

Definition: Intramolecular forces are the strong bonds that hold atoms together within a molecule, primarily through covalent or ionic bonding.

Highlight: Intermolecular forces are significantly weaker than chemical bonds but play a crucial role in determining physical properties.

Example: Water demonstrates strong hydrogen bonding, leading to:

  • Higher melting and boiling points
  • Increased surface tension and viscosity
  • Excellent solvent properties for polar substances
  • Unique density characteristics where ice floats on liquid water

Vocabulary: Hydrogen bonding occurs when hydrogen, bonded to an electronegative atom, is attracted to another electronegative atom of a different molecule.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

Knowunity is the BEST app I’ve used in a minute. This is not an ai review or anything this is genuinely coming from a 7th grade student (I know 2011 im young) but dude this app is a 10/10 i have maintained a 3.8 gpa and have plenty of time for gaming. I love it and my mom is just happy I got good grades

Not only did it help me find the answer but it also showed me alternative ways to solve it. I was horrible in math and science but now I have an a in both subjects. Thanks for the help🤍🤍

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

In school I was really bad at maths but thanks to the app, I am doing better now. I am so grateful that you made the app.

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend

Best app if you're in Highschool or Junior high. I have been using this app for 2 school years and it's the best, it's good if you don't have anyone to help you with school work.😋🩷🎀

THE QUIZES AND FLASHCARDS ARE SO USEFUL AND I LOVE THE SCHOOLGPT. IT ALSO IS LITREALLY LIKE CHATGPT BUT SMARTER!! HELPED ME WITH MY MASCARA PROBLEMS TOO!! AS WELL AS MY REAL SUBJECTS ! DUHHH 😍😁😲🤑💗✨🎀😮

This app is phenomenal down to the correct info and the various topics you can study! I greatly recommend it for people who struggle with procrastination and those who need homework help. It has been perfectly accurate for world 1 history as far as I’ve seen! Geometry too!
