Q1.23 (iii):
Suggest the most important type of intermolecular attractive interaction in the following pairs. (iii) \(NaClO_{4}\) and water

Solution :

Step 1: Analyzing the Solute and Solvent Characteristics

To identify the intermolecular interactions, we must first decompose the species into their fundamental ionic or molecular components:

  • Solute: $NaClO_4$ (Sodium perchlorate). This is an ionic salt. Upon dissolution in a polar solvent, it dissociates completely into its constituent ions: $NaClO_{4(s)} \rightarrow Na^+_{(aq)} + ClO_{4}^-_{(aq)}$ [Based on the Arrhenius theory of electrolytic dissociation].
  • Solvent: $H_2O$ (Water). Water is a polar protic solvent characterized by a high dielectric constant ($\varepsilon \approx 78.4$ at $298K$). It possesses a permanent dipole moment due to the electronegativity difference between Oxygen and Hydrogen.

Step 2: Identifying the Interaction Mechanism

When the ionic solid $NaClO_4$ is introduced to $H_2O$, the electrostatic forces holding the crystal lattice ($Na^+$ and $ClO_4^-$ ions) are overcome by the strong attractive forces exerted by the water molecules.

  • The partial negative charge ($\delta^-$) on the Oxygen atom of $H_2O$ is attracted to the $Na^+$ cation.
  • The partial positive charge ($\delta^+$) on the Hydrogen atoms of $H_2O$ is attracted to the $ClO_4^-$ anion.

This type of interaction, where an ion is surrounded and stabilized by solvent molecules, is defined as an Ion-Dipole Interaction [Per the electrostatic principles of Coulomb's Law, $F = k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$].

Step 3: Visualizing the Ion-Dipole Interaction

Na+ O Ion-Dipole ClO4- H Ion-Dipole

Step 4: Comparative Summary of Interactions

Interaction Type Definition Relevance to $NaClO_4 - H_2O$
Ion-Dipole Interaction between an ion and a polar molecule. Primary force
Dipole-Dipole Interaction between two polar molecules. Secondary (between water molecules)
London Dispersion Induced dipole interactions. Negligible compared to Ion-Dipole

Final Solution: The most important type of intermolecular attractive interaction in the pair $NaClO_4$ and water is the Ion-Dipole interaction.

Vardayini Agrawal

Shubhada ma’am explained Class 12 Computer Science concepts in a very clear and conceptual way. Her teaching of Python and SQL was extremely easy to understand, and she always focused on making the logic strong rather than just memorizing answers. She is very patient, and clears every doubt properly. Because of her guidance, I became much more confident in coding and scored full marks in the board exam also. Highly recommended for anyone looking to build a strong foundation in Computer Science.
