Arrangement of atoms or group of atoms in a three dimensional ordered pattern in a crystal is said to be a crystalline lattice. They are arranged in a specific pattern with high symmetry. The heating of the crystal at high temperature will result in the increase of vibrational kinetic energy of the atoms in the crystal and this will result in the breaking of lattice apart and due to the breaking of lattice apart the ions will flow freely.
Thus, the heating of a solid at high temperature will lead to the lattice breaks apart and ions will flow freely.
Answer:
B. Intermolecular forces are hard to overcome
Explanation:
A high boiling point indicates greater inter molecular forces between the molecules of the substance. Inter molecular forces is the force of attraction between the molecules of the substance, which has to be overcome or broken before the substance boils. Example, when water boils, the water molecule (H₂O) will be broken into hydrogen molecule and oxygen molecule.
Therefore, a high boiling point temperature indicates that intermolecular forces of the substance are hard to overcome.
