A strong dipole-dipole attraction between an electron deficient H atom on one molecule and a lone pair of electrons on a highly electronegative atom (FON) on a different molecule
1 of 16
Intermolecular bonds
Attractive forces between neighbouring molecules
2 of 16
Aldehydes
Compounds containing a Carbon-Oxygen double bond functional group at the end of the chain
3 of 16
Ketones
Compounds containing a Carbon-Oxygen double bond functional group in the middle of the chain
4 of 16
Carboxylic acids
Compounds containing a Carbon atom attached to a Carbon-oxygen double bond and an -OH group
5 of 16
Primary alcohols
Alcohols in which the -OH group is attached to a Carbon attached to only one other Carbon (At the end of the chain)
6 of 16
Secondary alcohols
Alcohols in which the -OH group is attached to a Carbon atom attached to two other Carbons (in the middle of the chain)
7 of 16
Tertiary alcohols
Alcohols in which the -OH group is attached to a Carbon attached to 3 other Carbon atoms

Elimination reaction
The removal of atoms from a saturated molecule to form an unsaturated molecule
9 of 16
Addition reaction
A reaction in which a reactant is added to an unsaturated molecule to make a saturated molecule
10 of 16
Electrophile
A positive Ion or molecule with a partial positive charge that will be attracted to a negatively charged region and react by accepting a lone pair of electrons to form a new covalent bond
11 of 16
E/Z isomerism
A type of stereoisomerism in which different groups attached to each carbon of a Carbon-Carbon double bond
12 of 16
Thermoplastic
Polymers without cross links between it's chains, attractive forces in thermoplasts can be overcome by warming
13 of 16
Thermoset
Polymers with extensive cross-linking between the different polymer chains, it's covalent bonds cannot be broken through warming. Instead thermoplasts char.

Co-polymer
A polymer made when two different monomers have been incorporated into the polymer chain
15 of 16
Addition polymerisation
The process in which unsaturated alkane monomers (repeating units) join together to form a long saturated molecular chain (the addition polymer)
