Explain the reason for low melting and boiling point of a covalent compound ​

Chemistry
2 answers:
Maurinko [17]3 years ago

Explanation:

The low boiling point and melting point of a covalent compound is due to their mutual sharing of electrons and their directional property on bonding compared to ionic as their tendency to gain and loose lather than sharing

Answer:

Covalent compounds have weak forces of attraction between the binding molecules. Thus less energy is required to break the force of bonding. Therefore covalent compounds have low melting and boiling point.

Why is it called endogenous process
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The Earth is shaped by many geological processes. ... Processes caused by forces from within the Earth are endogenous processes. Exo is a prefix meaning "out", and endo is a prefix meaning "in". Many exogenous (extraterrestrial) forces are caused by other bodies in the Solar System.

What type of tree has thin, waxy needles that drop throughout the year and help to retain water?
grin007 [14]

Only coniferous trees have thin, waxy, needle-like leaves that drop throughout the year and help to retain water.

<h3>What are coniferous trees?</h3>

Coniferous trees are evergreen trees that produce cones.

In addition, they produce waxy and needle-like leaves that help them conserve water by limiting the evapotranspiration rate as a result of reduced surface area.

Examples of conifers include pine trees and spruces.

The compound Xe(CF3)2 decomposes in afirst-order reaction to elemental Xe with a half-life of 30. min.If you place 7.50 mg of Xe
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

t=147.24\ min

Explanation:

Given that:

Half life = 30 min

t_{1/2}=\frac{\ln2}{k}

Where, k is rate constant

So,  

k=\frac{\ln2}{t_{1/2}}

k=\frac{\ln2}{30}\ min^{-1}

The rate constant, k = 0.0231 min⁻¹

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

Given that:

The rate constant, k = 0.0231 min⁻¹

Initial concentration [A_0] = 7.50 mg

Final concentration [A_t] = 0.25 mg

Time = ?

Applying in the above equation, we get that:-

0.25=7.50e^{-0.0231\times t}

750e^{-0.0231t}=25

750e^{-0.0231t}=25

x=\frac{\ln \left(30\right)}{0.0231}

t=147.24\ min
