Is propane a giant or simple structure?
it is a simple structure
Does silicon oxide have a simple molecular or giant structure?
silicon (IV) oxide or silicon dioxide has giant covalent structure
In a salt crystal sodium chloride how does the number of sodium ions compare to the number chlorine ions?
The formula for sodium chloride is NaCl. This means that for every one sodium ion, there is one chloride ion. The ratio is 1:1, so the numbers of each ion in a crystal of NaCl should be equal.
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.
Is silicon hard?
yes, it is bonded in a giant covalent lattice and has a tetrahedral structure, and is very hard to break apart
Do sodium chloride have a giant structure?
yes it does
Is propane a giant or simple structure?
it is a simple structure
Is propane giant or simple structure?
it is a simple structure
Is carbon tetrachloride giant or simple structure?
it is a simple structure
Is magnesium bromide a giant or simple structure?
Magnesium Bromide has a giant structure
Is silicon dioxide a giant or simple structure?
giant
Do substances that usually contain covalent bonds have a giant or simple molecular structure?
Such compounds can have either a giant or a simple molecular structure. Cellulose is an example of a material with a giant structure, and carbon monoxide has a very simple one.
Why is there no such thing as sodium chloride particle?
it exists as a giant ionic structure
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.
Does silicon oxide have a simple molecular or giant structure?
silicon (IV) oxide or silicon dioxide has giant covalent structure
What shape are sodium chloride Crystal?
cubes, very small cubes
Why does magnesium chloride have a much higher melting point than water?
magnesium chloride is a ionic structure there for forming a giant ionic lattice, each atom is held by a ionic bond. H2O is a simple molecular structure there for the molecules are held by intermolecular forces which are easily overcome, however the molecules aren't broken up it is only the structure. :)= Sav
