What else can I help you with?
Is wax a giant covalent structure?
No, wax is not a giant covalent structure. Wax is composed of long-chain hydrocarbons and does not have a complex molecular structure like giant covalent substances such as diamond or graphite.
Which element has a giant ionic and covalent structure?
Well, you've mystified me. I have a PhD in chemistry, and this is the first I've ever heard of a "giant ionic and covalent structure". Could you try being a little more specific? I can think of materials that might qualify ... zeolites, for example, which are partly ionic and partly covalent and might form extensive networks ... but these are compounds, not elements.
Is wax a giant covalent?
No, wax contains very large molecules.
Is water a giant covalent structure?
No, water is not a giant covalent structure. Water molecules are held together by hydrogen bonds, which are much weaker than the covalent bonds typically found in giant covalent structures like diamond or graphite.
Is iodine has a giant covalent structure?
No, iodine does not have a giant covalent structure. Iodine exists as diatomic molecules (I2) held together by weak van der Waals forces. Each iodine atom forms covalent bonds with one another within the I2 molecule.
What is the differece between a substance with a giant covalent structure and a simple covalent structure?
The giant structure involve an enormous number of atoms.

What giant covalent structure is often used in semi conductors?
Silica

Do substances that usually contain covalent bonds have a giant or simple molecular structure?
Substances that usually contain covalent bonds have a simple molecular structure. Examples include elements like oxygen and compounds like methane. Giant molecular structures are typically found in substances with strong covalent bonds, such as diamond and quartz.
Is silicon dioxide a giant or simple structure?
Silicon dioxide has a giant molecular structure, also known as a giant covalent structure. Each silicon atom is covalently bonded to four oxygen atoms in a three-dimensional network, creating a large and interconnected structure.
Are phosphorus and argon molecular covalent or network covalent?
Phosphorus - covalent network Argon - covalent molecular
Why are giant covalent structures non conductors of electricity?
Giant covalent structures, such as diamond and silicon dioxide, have a strong network of covalent bonds that hold their atoms together in a rigid structure. These bonds do not allow for the movement of electrons, which is necessary for conducting electricity. Therefore, giant covalent structures are non-conductors of electricity.
Why does silicon can form giant structures?
Silicon (like carbon) can form covalent bonds, it forms a giant molecule with the diamond structure. Silicon dioxide is also a giant structure with polar covalent bonds. Silica reacts with basic oxides to form silicates- and these are generally giant structures, polar covalent bonds again, that form a very large proportion of the minerals in the earths crust.
