Review Activity:

1. Explain the role of intermolecular forces in determining the physical properties of a substance.

2. Name and describe the four major types of intermolecular forces (Van der Waals forces, dipole-dipole forces, hydrogen bonding, and London dispersion forces).

3. Describe the differences between polar and non-polar molecules.

4. Describe the role of symmetry in determining the polarity of a molecule.

5. Explain why some molecules with polar bonds may be non-polar overall.

6. List and explain the factors that can influence the strength of hydrogen bonding between molecules.

7. Explain the differences between intermolecular forces and intramolecular forces.

8. Explain the physical properties that are affected by stronger intermolecular forces.

9. What are the differences between salt-water and sugar-water solutions in terms of intermolecular forces?

10. Describe ion-dipole forces and explain how they can help stabilize solutions.
