Permanent Dipole-Dipole Interactions

Permanent dipole-dipole interactions exist between two permanently polar molecules.

Permanent dipoles

Permanent dipoles

Permanent dipoles have a δ^- on one side and a δ⁺ on the other.
The δ⁺ of one molecule will attract the δ^- of another molecule.
- This means that the molecules will line up throughout a liquid or solid in this fashion.
- Permanent dipole-dipole forces are the second strongest molecular interaction.

Polar molecules

Polar molecules

Permanent dipole-dipole interactions are only possible in molecules that contain a permanent dipole.
- So they are only found between polar molecules.

Hydrogen Bonds

Hydrogen bonds only exist between some specific types of molecules. These intermolecular forces are stronger than induced and permanent dipole-dipole interactions.

Hydrogen bonds

Hydrogen bonds

A hydrogen bond is the name given to a very strong permanent dipole-permanent dipole force.
With some elements, hydrogen can form extremely strong dipole-dipole interactions.
- When these are strong enough to be considered a bond, it is called a hydrogen bond.

Where are hydrogen bonds found?

Where are hydrogen bonds found?

Hydrogen bonds are found when you have a hydrogen atom bonded to either oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine.
That hydrogen atom will form a strong permanent dipole-dipole interaction with another oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine atom.
Examples of liquids with hydrogen bonds are:
- Water.
- Hydrogen fluoride.
- Ammonia.

Why do hydrogen bonds form?

Why do hydrogen bonds form?

When hydrogen is bonded to an extremely electronegative element, it develops a strong δ⁺ charge.
Hydrogen is a very small atom, so it has a high charge density in this situation.
- This allows it to form a strong bond with any highly δ^- charged atom.
