Which substances have the lowest melting points: ionic covalent, or metallic

Chemistry
1 answer:
const2013 [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Covalent  

Step-by-step explanation:

Covalent substances have relatively weak intermolecular forces. Many covalent substances such as hydrogen and oxygen are gases at room temperature, so they have low melting points.

<em>Ionic substances</em> have strong ion-ion attractive forces, and <em>metals </em>have strong metallic (electron-metal cation) attractions. I don't know of any metals or ionic compounds that are gases at normal conditions.

The maximum contaminant level of copper (Cu) in drinking water as set by the the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is 0.0013
Mazyrski [523]

Answer is: concentration is 1.3 ppm.

Parts-per-million (10⁻⁶) is present at one-millionth of a gram per gram of sample solution, for example mg/kg.

d(Cu) = 0.0013 g/L; mass concentration of copper.

d(H₂O) = 1.00 g/mL; density of water.

m(H₂O) = V(H₂O) · d(H₂O).

m(H₂O) = 1000 mL · 1 g/mL.

m(H₂O) = 1000 g ÷ 1000 g/kg.

m(H₂O) = 1 kg; mass of water.

m(Cu) = 0.0013 g · 1000 mg/g.

m(Cu) = 1.3 mg; mass of coppper.

concentration = 1.3 mg ÷ 1 kg.

concentration = 1.3 mg/kg.

concentration = 1.3 ppm.

A student was comparing the solubility of equal amounts of table salt and table sugar at different temperatures.The table below
alexgriva [62]
First, we distinguish whether table sugar or table salt will be more soluble. The bonds between the molecules of the table sugar are weaker than the bonds between the molecules of salt. Therefore, it is easier for the sugar molecules to dissolve.
Next, we evaluate the effect of temperature on solubility. As the temperature of a solvent increases, it is able to hold more and more solute. This means that the sample with table sugar kept at the highest temperature will contain the most dissolved solute, and this is sample 1.
