Because ionic compounds' strong bonds form network structures, which have a stronger attraction than the covalent compounds which are molecules.

Simple molecular substances consist of molecules in which the atoms are joined by strong covalent bonds. Their molecules are held together by weak forces, so these substances have low melting and boiling points. ... They have high melting and boiling points.

Which one of the following will change the value of an equilibrium constant?
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

(E) changing temperature

Explanation:

Consider the following reversible balanced reaction:

aA+bB⇋cC+dD

If we know the molar concentrations of each of the reaction species, we can find the value of Kc using the relationship:

Kc = ([C]^c * [D]^d) / ([A]^a * [B]^b)

where:

[C] and [D] are the concentrations of the products in the equilibrium; [A] and [B] reagent concentrations in equilibrium; already; b; c and d are the stoichiometric coefficients of the balanced equation. Concentrations are commonly expressed in molarity, which has units of moles / 1

There are some important things to remember when calculating Kc:

-  <em>Kc is a constant for a specific reaction at a specific temperature</em>. If you change the reaction temperature, then Kc also changes

- Pure solids and liquids, including solvents, are not considered for equilibrium expression.

- The reaction must be balanced with the written coefficients as the minimum possible integer value in order to obtain the correct value of Kc
