Answer:

The correct answer is option b, that is, molecular solids.

Explanation:

Generally, the ionic compounds exhibit much higher melting points in comparison to molecular compounds. The ionic compounds are held together by ionic attractions between the negative and positive ions. These are known as ionic bonds. In order to melt or break an ionic component, there is a need to disrupt these bonds. This needs an ample amount of energy.  

The molecules are held in the association through covalent bonds, these are robust, and however, there is no requirement to dissociate these covalent bonds in order to melt a molecular component. Each and every molecule is neutral in molecular solids and is fascinated by its adjacent neutral molecule with the help of an intermolecular force.  

Thus, to melt a molecular component, one requires to dissociate these weak intermolecular forces between the neutral molecules. That is why ionic compounds usually exhibit higher melting points in comparison to the molecular compounds.

How might you separate a mixture of sand and salt?
sineoko [7]
You can separate a mixture of salt and sand by...

First combing the mixture with water and mix thoroughly until the salt dissolves..

Then you could let the sand settle at the bottom of the salt water, so you can strain salt water to separate the sand from salt water...

To get salt... you would heat up the water to let it evaporate. When all the water is evaporated, the salt will be left behind

By mistake, you added salt instead of sugar to the<br> oil. How can you remove the salt?
Ghella [55]

Explanation:

To remove the salt from the oil, I will add water to dissolve the salt from it.

Oil is an organic molecule that is non-polar

Salt is polar ionic compound

Salt will not dissolve in the oil.

  • Take the mixture.
  • Add water to it.
  • Water and oil are immiscible
  • Shake the new heterogeneous mixture vigorously.
  • leave to settle.
  • Oil will come on top of the water.
  • You can skim off the oil layer on top.
  • Then heat the water and salt solution.
  • This leaves the oil behind.

A 0.80 L sample of gas has a temperature of 27°C and a pressure of 0.925 atm. How many moles of gas are present?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

n= 0.03 moles

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas law:

PV=nRT

nRT=PV

n= PV/RT

 n: moles

 P: pressure in atm

 V= volume in L

 R= Avogadro's constant = 0.0821

 T= Temperature in K => ºC+273.15

n= (0.925 atm)(0.80 L) / (0.0821)(300.15 K)

n= 0.03 moles

Devise a way to separate a mixture of sand, salt, and iron filings. Write the procedure using a step-by-step method and explain
aev [14]
1. Iron fillings are magnetic, so use a magnet to pull the iron fillings out of the mix.
2. Then you can put the salt and sand mixture into water, since salt is soluble, and the salt will dissolve, leaving you with sand.
