Polarity of Molecules
and Its Properties
OBJECTIVES
After going through this module, you are expected to:
 1.Define solubility, miscibility and polarity;
 2.Identify the different types of intermolecular forces of attraction
 3.Explain how polarity of molecules related to its properties
Polarity, Solubility, and Miscibility
 Polarity is a separation of electric charge leading to a
molecule or its chemical groups having an electric
dipole moment, with a negatively charged end and a
positively charged end. Polar molecules must contain one
or more polar bonds due to a difference in
electronegativity between the bonded atoms.
 Solubility is defined as the ability of a solid substance to
be dissolved in a given amount of solvent.
 Miscibility is the ability of the two liquids to combine or
mix in all proportions, creating a homogenous mixture.
What chemistry concept did you used in answering the question above? If you
answered polarity of molecules, then you are on the right track. Great job!
Benzene and chloroform are both nonpolar compounds while water and vinegar
are both polar compounds, thus they are miscible to each other. However, the
rest is a combination of polar and nonpolar molecules and therefore will not
mix and instead will form two layers even if shake nor carefully stirred.
 The general rule to remember
about the solubility and miscibility
of molecular compounds can be
summarized in a phrase, “like
dissolves like” or “like mixes with
like”. This means that polar
substances will only be dissolved or
mixed with polar substances while
nonpolar substances will be soluble
or miscible with another nonpolar
substance.
 Now I want you to try the exercises
below in order to assess how much
you have understood the solubility
(and miscibility) rule of substances
in relation to their polarity.
 Which of the following substances
below will most likely mix with
each other?
 a. water (H2O) and chloroform
(CHCl)
 b. benzene (C6H6) and chloroform
(CHCl3)
 c. water (H2O) and vinegar
(CH3COOH)
 d. acetone (C3H6O) and toluene
(C6H5CH3)
 e. carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and
water(H2O)
B. Bond Strength and Physical Properties
of Covalent Compound
 From the previous module, you learned the intramolecular forces of
attraction, the attractive force that binds atoms together. In this
module, you will learn another type of attractive force, the
intermolecular forces of attraction (IMFA) which exists between
molecules.
 1.There are several types of IMFA and below they are arranged from
STRONGEST to WEAKEST. Ion-dipole →H-bonding→dipole-
dipole→dipole-induced dipole→London forces of attraction.
 2. The strength of IMFA greatly affects the physical properties of
substances such as boiling point, melting point, vapor pressure,
surface tension, etc.
Table 1: shows the comparison of the various types of IMFA
while table 2 shows the physical properties of polar and
nonpolar molecules as affected by the type of IMFA present.
Table 2. General Properties of polar and
nonpolar molecule
Let us define the physical properties of
substance:
 A. Boiling point: temperature at which the vapor pressure and atmospheric
pressure of a liquid substance are equal.
 B. Melting point: temperature at which solid becomes liquid. At this point, the
solid and liquid phases exist in equilibrium.
 C. Surface tension: energy needed to increase the surface area by a unit amount;
 D. Viscosity: the resistance of the liquid to flow.
 E. Vapor Pressure: pressure exerted by a substance in its gaseous state.
 F. Volatility: measures the rate at which a substance vaporizes(changes from liquid
to gas)
 In the simplest sense, boiling point, melting point, viscosity and surface tension
increase as the strength of intermolecular forces increases. On the other hand,
vapor pressure and volatility decrease with increasing strength of IMFA. London
dispersion forces increase as the molecular mass of a substance increases. Unlike
in H-bonding, as the molar mass increases, the boiling point, melting point,
viscosity and surface tension decrease.
