Answer:

Ionic solid

Explanation:

Ionic solids -

These are the type of solids , which is composed of ions , which are bond by very strong electrostatic force of attraction , are referred to as ionic solids.

And due to very strong force of attraction between the ions , they generally have very high melting point.

When the solid is dissolved in water , the ions gets separate out , and these free ions are capable to conduct electricity , and hence they are very good conductor in molten form , and are insulator in solid form.

Hence , from the given information of the question ,

The correct term is ionic solids.

Use molecular structure and intermolecular bonding to describe why bromine has a lower boiling point than water
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Bromine mollecules are held together by van der waals forces while a water molecule constitutes both van der waals forces and hydrogen bomnding

Explanation:

This makes the water molecule recquire more heat energy to break the bond thus a higher boiling point while bromine structure requires just litttle heat energy

Which statement best describes the pH of pure water?
Ray Of Light [21]

The pH of pure water is neutral because the concentration of hydronium ions equals that of hydroxide ions.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Water is one of the most important constituents of living being. It is said that there is no life without water. So that water need to neutral in nature to save life. Pure water is composed of hydronium H^{+} and hydroxide \left(O H^{-}\right) ions. It is known that hydronium ions are acidic in nature with concentration of 1 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{M} / \mathrm{L}.

Similarly, the hydroxide ions which are basic in nature will be in same concentration as that of hydronium ions. So, as the concentration of basic and acidic elements are equal with the same strength of pH, the combination of these ions lead to formation of pure water with the pH being neutral.
