Which of the following would best describe the characteristics of the material formed? -a non-conducting material with low melting and boiling points, likely liquid or gas at room temperature. -a brittle, opaque solid with a very high melting point. -a brittle, transparent solid with a very high melting point. -a shiny, malleable solid with a very high melting point. -a non-conducting solid at room temperature that will conduct if melted or dissolved.
a non-conducting material with low melting and boiling points, likely liquid or gas at room temperature.
Which of the following set of properties is most likely those associated with methane, a covalently bonded compound? gas at room temperature, colorless, does not conduct electricity when solid solid at room temperature, opaque, good electrical conductor solid at room temperature, transparent, electrical conductor when dissolved in water
gas at room temperature, colorless, does not conduct electricity when solid
Dispersion forces are stronger than covalent bonds. True False
False
The forces between the N2 molecules are very strong. True False
False
Which of the following is a true statement about melting and boiling points in materials made of covalent molecules? -Molecules that are polar have lower melting and boiling points than nonpolar molecules. -Molecules that contain triple bonds are the most likely to be gases at room temperature. -Molecules that contain double bonds melt and boil at higher temperatures because the bonds are stronger. -Van der Waals (dispersion) forces lower melting and boiling points. -Hydrogen bonding between molecules increases melting and boiling points.
Hydrogen bonding between molecules increases melting and boiling points.
What best describes how the oxygen molecules would behave if mixed with water? -They would dissolve poorly or not at all because they are polar. -They would dissolve well because they are not polar. -They would dissolve poorly or not at all because they are not polar. -They would dissolve well because they are polar. -They would dissolve well because they are ionic.
They would dissolve poorly or not at all because they are not polar.
