HCL has a low m.p because of the covalent bond which is weaker as compared to ionic bonds. So low amount of heat is needed in order to break these bonds and hence the mp is low

∙ 11y agoI wouldn't classify 1413 °C, 1686 K, as being low. Lithium chloride (at 1382 °C) is even lower boiling

Does hydrogen have a high or a low melting point?
hydrogen is a gas consequently doesn't have a melting point. You can't melt oxygen can you. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actually oxygen can freeze and melt: its melting point is -361.8°F (-218.8°C). Even hydrogen can freeze and melt: its melting point is -434.49 °F(−259.16°C) These are very cold temperatures!
Does salt usually have a low melting point?
Yes salts have a low melting point. I think...
Does carbon have high melting point?
it has a low melting point
Does chromium have a high low melting point?
high melting point
Does strontium have a high or low melting point?
High Melting Point Of Over 1000 Degrees
Why does hydrogen fluoride have a low melting point?
Hydrogen fluoride has a low melting point because in pure liquid the HF molecules are almost nonpolar (no ions) and very small.
Does sodium chloride have a high or low boiling point?
Iodine, at p=p0,Boiling point 457.4 K,  184.3 °C(So I don't know if you'd call this high or low? compared with what?)However the difference with melting point of Iodine (386.85 K,  113.7 °C) is remarkably small (< 71oC) and the solid is quite vaporous far below its boiling point (Triple point 386.65K (113.5oC), 12.07 kPa, just below melting point).

Can hydrogen freeze?
Yes it solidifies into ice at very low temperatures below about 150 K and low pressures.

Do solids have a high or low melting point?
That depends on the solid: ice has a very low melting point, lard and butter have low melting points, chocolate has a relatively low melting point, wax has an intermediate melting point, lead has a high melting point, iron has a very high melting point, tungsten has an extremely high melting point.
What is specific resistance and melting point of fuse?
low resistivity and low melting point.
Why technetium and manganese have low melting point?
The melting point of technetium is 2 157 0C- it is not low.
