What accounts for the observed differences in the properties of ionic and molecular compounds?
t Answer Well firstly, ionic compounds form from metals bonding with non metals. Molecular/covalent form from non metals bonding with non metals. A strong electrostatic force between ionic compounds results in them having high melting points. A weaker electrostatic force between molecular compounds results in them having lower melting points and thus weaker bonds. Ionic compounds are made up of ions, so will conduct electricity. Covalent compounds only share electrons and so are not ions, and will not conduct electricity.
When a substace is heated how does the molecular motion change?
The average speed of the random molecular motion increases. The corresponding increase in molecular kinetic energy accounts for what happened to all of that heat energy.
Water has several unique properties such as high boiling point high surface tension and low vapor pressure The type of attraction that best accounts for these unique properties is?
hydrogen bonding
What specific properties of metals accounts for their unusaul electrical conductivity?
the number of electrons in the outer shell of each atomic particle.
What are the typical physical properties of substances that have metallic ionic and covalent bonds?
Metallic: melting point @ 63, boiling point @ 760, properties: soft, silvery, solid, and conductor as a solid. Covalent: melting point @ -101, boiling point @ -34.6, properties: greenish yellow gas and not a good conductor.
