Which statement best describes the properties of covalent compounds

Chemistry
1 answer:
amm18123 years ago
8 0

Most covalent compounds have relatively low melting points and boiling points. Covalent compounds usually have lower enthalpies of fusion and vaporization than ionic compounds. Covalent compounds tend to be more flammable than ionic compounds. When dissolved in water, they don't conduct electricity.

Martian periodic table
denis23 [38]
<span>Chemists considered Martian Periodic Table as one of the most useful tools they’ve used whose purpose is to arrange the Martian elements  according to their properties and their atomic number. On this periodic table, it was found out that the properties seem to vary.  Dmitri Mendeleev, the first to arrange the periodic table according to atomic mass in a manner that the elements with the same properties were grouped together. It was Henry Moseley who later arranged the periodic table in accord to the increasing number of atoms per element. </span>

The strength of an acid is affected by the polarity of the bond connected to the acidic hydrogen. The more highly polarized this
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{HClO_3 > HClO_2 >HClO > HBrO}"

Explanation:

We arrange oxoacids to decrease the intensity of acids in this question. Or we may conclude all this from strongest to weakest acids they order oxoacids, that's why above given order is correct.

PLEASE HELP Determine the number of neutrons for the given isotopes:
zepelin [54]
<span>Helium = 1
Carbon = 8
Nitrogen = 8
Strontium = 52
Tellurium = 71

If you look on a periodic table, on each element there is a number on the top left. This represents the number of protons in an atom. Protons have a mass of 1 (in relative to Carbon-13)

If we take nitrogen-15 for example; The number 15 tells you that the isotope has a mass of 15. Now if you look on the periodic table, Nitrogen has a proton number of 7. Only protons and neutrons have a mass, electrons are considered to be negligable. Therefore the number of neutrons Nitrogen-15 contains is 15 - 7 = 8 </span>

Do protons determine isotopes
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Protons determine the type of element it is which the number of protons.

Isotopes are determined by the same elements with the same amount of protons, but different number of neutrons.
