  2. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    The bond dipole moment [5] uses the idea of electric dipole moment to measure the polarity of a chemical bond within a molecule. It occurs whenever there is a separation of positive and negative charges. The bond dipole μ is given by: =.

  3. Non-covalent interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-covalent_interaction

    A hydrogen bond (H-bond), is a specific type of interaction that involves dipoledipole attraction between a partially positive hydrogen atom and a highly electronegative, partially negative oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, or fluorine atom (not covalently bound to said hydrogen atom). It is not a covalent bond, but instead is classified as a strong ...

  4. London dispersion force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_dispersion_force

    Interaction energy of an argon dimer.The long-range section is due to London dispersion forces. London dispersion forces (LDF, also known as dispersion forces, London forces, instantaneous dipole–induced dipole forces, fluctuating induced dipole bonds [1] or loosely as van der Waals forces) are a type of intermolecular force acting between atoms and molecules that are normally electrically ...

  5. Dipole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipole

    For example, the zero dipole of CO 2 implies that the two C=O bond dipole moments cancel so that the molecule must be linear. For H 2 O the O−H bond moments do not cancel because the molecule is bent. For ozone (O 3) which is also a bent molecule, the bond dipole moments are not zero even though the O−O bonds are between similar atoms. This ...

  6. Chemical species - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_species

    The chemical species can be an atom, molecule, ion, or radical, with a specific chemical name and chemical formula. [ 2 ] In supramolecular chemistry , chemical species are structures created by forming or breaking bonds between molecules, such as hydrogen bonding , dipole-dipole bonds , etc. [ 3 ] These types of bonds can determine the ...

  7. Intermolecular force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermolecular_force

    A hydrogen bond is an extreme form of dipole-dipole bonding, referring to the attraction between a hydrogen atom that is bonded to an element with high electronegativity, usually nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine. [4] The hydrogen bond is often described as a strong electrostatic dipoledipole interaction.

  8. Field effect (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_effect_(chemistry)

    The polarization of a molecule through its bonds is a separate phenomenon known as induction. [3] Field effects are relatively weak, and diminish rapidly with distance, but have still been found to alter molecular properties such as acidity. [1] Field effect on a carbonyl arising from the dipole in a C-F bond.

  9. Amide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amide

    In primary and secondary amides, the presence of N–H dipoles allows amides to function as H-bond donors as well. Thus amides can participate in hydrogen bonding with water and other protic solvents; the oxygen atom can accept hydrogen bonds from water and the N–H hydrogen atoms can donate H-bonds. As a result of interactions such as these ...
