Explain the different melting points between ionic and covalent bonding

Chemistry

yarga [219]4 years ago

Ionic bonding is formed in Ionic compounds due to electrostatic force between the oppositely charged ions.


In covalent bonds electrons are shared between the atoms. In case of ionic bond the bond is stronger as there is complete transfer of electrons from one ion to the other.


Since the ionic bonds are more difficult to break than the covalent bonds, ionic compounds have a higher melting point than covalent compounds.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Ionic compounds have high melting points than covelent compounds because ionic compounds have strong bonding which needs high amount of energy to break.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Ionic compounds are formed from strong electrostatic interactions between ions.
  • Ionic bonds are very strong - a lot of energy is needed to break them.
  • Covalent compounds have bonds where electrons are shared between atoms.
  • They are relatively weak bonds, they need low amount of energy to break.

a wave that the medium is displaced perpendicular to the direction of the wave, such as waves on a string.

Explanation:

A transverse wave is a wave that the medium is displaced perpendicular to the direction of the wave, such as waves on a string.

A wave is a disturbance that transmits energy from one place to another.

There are two major types of waves:

  • Transverse waves are waves that are propagated perpendicularly to the direction of the wave.
  • A wave in string going up and down is a transverse wave.
  • Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves.
  • Seismic s-waves are transverse waves.
  • Sound waves are longitudinal waves propagated parallel to their source.

What is the boiling point of a 0.75-molal solution of a non-volatile non-electrolyte solute in water? Kb for water = 0.52 degree
AVprozaik [17]
Take the molality and multiply it by the Kb
0.75 × 0.52 = 0.39 C

then add the boiling pt to the 0.39
100 + 0.39 = 100.39 C
