During the phase change from solid ice to liquid water, which bonds/forces are being weakened?

Chemistry

INTERmolecular forces (such as dipoles and London dispersion forces).

The actually compound isn't changing (it's still H2O in solid or liquid form), so INTRAmolecular bonds aren't being affected. It's just the strength of attraction between separate molecules that is weakening.

A. Explain, in terms of particles, why NaCl(s) does not conduct electricity.
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Ionic bonds hold charged particles in solid NaCl together, such that they are unable to move or conduct electricity.

Explanation:

Consider an electric current that flows through a conductor: charge moves in a uniform direction from one end of the conductor towards the other.

Thus, there are two conditions for a substance to conduct electricity:

  • The substance shall contain charged particles, and
  • These charged particles shall be free to move across the substance.

A conductor of electricity shall meet both requirements.

Now, consider the structure of solid NaCl \rm NaCl\;(s). NaCl is an ionic compound. It contains an ocean of oppositely charged ions:

  • Positive \rm Na^{+} ions, and
  • Negative \rm Cl^{-} ions.

Ions carry charge. Thus, solid NaCl contains charged particles and satisfies the first condition.

Inside solid NaCl \rm NaCl\;(s), electrostatic attractions ("ionic bonds") between the oppositely charged ions hold these ions in rigid ionic lattices. These ions are unable to move relative to each other. As a result, they cannot flow through the solid to conduct electricity. Under solid state, NaCl is unable to satisfy the second condition.

As a side note, melting NaCl into a liquid breaks the ionic bonds and free the ions from the lattice. Liquid NaCl is a conductor of electricity.
