#1
Front (Question)

What are intermolecular forces?

Back (Answer)

The attraction/repulsion between neighbouring molecules. All intermolecular forces = Van der Waals forces.

#2
Front (Question)

What are London Dispersion forces?

Back (Answer)

Weak forces present between non-polar covalent molecules.

#3
Front (Question)

What are Dipole-Dipole forces?

Back (Answer)

Permanent forces between polar molecules.

#4
Front (Question)

How do Dipole-Dipole forces work?

Back (Answer)

Polar molecules have a permanent positive end and a permanent negative end. Dipole-Dipole forces occur when these ends attract each other.

#5
Front (Question)

What is Hydrogen bonding?

Back (Answer)

Special type of Dipole-Dipole forces. Strongest form of intermolecular force.

#6
Front (Question)

When will hydrogen bondings form?

Back (Answer)

When compounds have molecules directly bonded to fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen.
