Explanation
NaCl: Ionic crystal lattice forces
Hg: Metallic bonding
CO₂: London dispersion forces
CH₄: London dispersion forces
Li₂O: Ionic crystal lattice forces
Ag: Metallic bonds
Ionic crystal lattice forces are strong electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions arranged into a crystal lattice of ionic compound. NaCl and Li₂O are ionic compounds
London dispersion forces holds the molecules of carbon dioxide and methane. They are weak attractions found between non-polar (and polar) molecules.
Metallic bonds exists between Mercury and Gold atoms. This is due to sea of electrons present.
The group of elements that have some properties of metals and some properties of nonmetals are called metalloids.
The answer would be b. Temperature of the solution increases
Temperature determines the kinetic energy of the water molecule. Higher temperature will cause the molecule to moves faster and the compound (KNO3) could break solute molecule easier make it become more soluble. A higher pressure will increase the solubility of a gas, not solid
