What forces hold network solids together?

Chemistry
1 answer:
mezya [45]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Covalent solids, also called network solids, are solids that are held together by covalent bonds. As such, they need localized electrons (shared between the atoms) and therefore the atoms are arranged in fixed geometries. Distortion far from this geometry can only occur through a breaking of covalent sigma bonds.

Pls help i need one more brainly to rank up. And have a great day :D

Nikitich [7]
A major disadvantage of a corporation is the double taxation of the corporation's income and of dividends paid to shareholders.
<span>Corporations end up paying taxes twice. The corporation pays tax when it shows a profit. Secondly the corporation pays tax when it pays out dividends to its shareholders.  Sole proprietorships and partnerships are taxed as owners of the business. The owners of a corporation are taxed individually from the corporation. The advantage of this is that the owners of a corporation are not taxed on the corporation's profit. </span>

The melting point of H₂O(s) is 0 °C. Would you expect the melting point of H₂S(s) to be 85 °C, 0 °C or -85 °C.? Justify your cho
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

-85 °C

Explanation:

O and S are in the same group( Group 16). Since S is below O it's atomic mass is higher than O. So molar mass of H2S is higher than H2O. The strength of Vanderwaal Interactions ( London dispersion forces) increases when the molar mass increases. However, only H2O can form H bonds with each other. This is because electronegativity of O is higher than S and therefore H in H2O has a higher partial positive charge than H of H2S.

H bond dominate among these 2 types of forces so the strength of attractions between molecules is higher in H2O than H2S. Therefore more energy should be supplied for H2O to break inter

molecular forces and convert from solid to liquid state than H2S. So mpt of H2O must be higher than that of H2S.
