Answer:

Covalent compounds are held by intermolecular forces while network solids are held by strong bonds in unit cells which are closely packed together.

Explanation:

Covalent compound molecules are held by vanderwaals forces which are relatively weak but strong enough to hold some covalent molecules together in the solid state. However, network solids contain atom to atom covalent bonds arranged in an orderly manner and regular repeating unit cells to form a rigid three dimensional network solid.

Answer:

Risk management can be described as the identification and evaluation of certain risks beforehand and the appropriate steps that can be taken to avoid the problematic situations. Risk management is the forecasting of certain risks and the plans made to resist or overcome these risk situations.
