For each compound groups below, what are the 3 main types of intermolecular bonds and how do they effect the polarity of the functional groups in a polar solvent? Alkanes, Alkenes, Dienes, Aromatic Hydrocarbons, Ethers, Esters, Ketones, Aldehydes, Amines, Alcohols, Phenols, Carboxylic Acids.

I will award a medal.

@abb0t Do you think you could help me?

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Have you attempted this yourself? Maybe give me a few of your reasonings or explanations and we can proceed from there.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have and the only one I got half done was Alcohols and for that I put down: london dispersion, dipole-dipole, and hydrogen bonding. I tried looking up the rest but haven't had any luck.

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Well, in alkanes, there are no polar groups, so the intermolecular force is dispersion/ Vaan der Waal's/ London forces.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would that also be the same for the alkenes?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, now I have Esters: dipole-dipole london dispersion, Ketones: dipole-dipole lonod dispersion hydrogen bonds, Aldehydes: dipole-dipole london dispersion hydrogen bonds, Amines: hydrogen bonds, Phenols: london dispersion hydrogen bonds dipole-dipole, and Carboxylic Acids: hydrogen bonds.
