POLARITY AND SOLUBILITY: “Like dissolves like”
2
1.a) Review of shapes: What are the five basic shapes? Linear Trigonal Planar Tetrahedral Trigonal Pyramidal Bent
3
1.b) Review of Bonding: Ionic or covalent? Ionic = metal + nonmetal Covalent = nonmetal + nonmetal Nonpolar Covalent = electrons shared equally Polar Covalent = electrons shared unequally
4
2. Definitions of Polarity a)Polar bond— bond involves unequal distribution of electrons b)Polar molecule— the molecule has an unequal distribution of electrons the molecule has an unequal distribution of electrons c)Dipole—charges in a molecule are separated; use and
5
3. To determine if a molecule is polar you must know its shape! Draw Lewis Structure & Bar Diagram; Use and to show charge distribution Determine Shape of Molecule Determine Polarity of Molecule
6
a) H 2 O 1) Lewis & Bar? 2) Shape? 3) Polarity? O H H O—H H bent Polar—electrons distributed unequally
7
b) OF 2 1) Lewis & Bar? 2) Shape? 3) Polarity? O—F bent Nonpolar—electrons distributed equally O F F F
8
b) CF 4 1) Lewis & Bar? 2) Shape? 3) Polarity? tetrahedral Nonpolar—electrons distributed equally F C F F F F—C—F F F

4. Determining solubility: “Like Dissolves Like” Polar compounds like water dissolve polar and ionic solids like NaCl Nonpolar compounds like oils and fats dissolve other nonpolar compounds
10
5. Like Dissolves Like: Why is this important? Many pesticides and other dangerous toxins are nonpolar and therefore fat soluble These nonpolar substances build up in the fat reserves of animals, causing harm DDT in eagles; PCB’s in humans
11
Determining Solubility Examples: 6. a) Are these pairs soluble? HCl H 2 O Both are polar, therefore they are soluble O—H H H—Cl
12
Determining Solubility Examples: 6. b) Are these pairs soluble? CF 4 NH 3 CF 4 is nonpolar, NH 3 is polar; therefore NOT SOLUBLE F—C—F F F H—N—H H

7. Practical Application: Chromatography Pens can be identified using chromatography Pen ink is a mixture which can be separated using various solvents A chromatogram (“color picture”) results from the process of chromatography
