Inter-molecular forces. The greater the attraction between particles the more energy required to break the forces or "melt" them.

The answer is: the type of bonding among the particles.

For example, calcium oxide (CaO) has ionic bonds between calcium cations (Ca²⁺) and oxygen anions (O²⁻).

Because it has strong ionic bonds, it has high melting point (around 2600°C).

Ionic bond is the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions (cations and anions).

Explain how plate tectonics are responsible for where we find some of our natural resources.
Mekhanik [1.2K]
At divergent boundaries, plates separate, forming a narrow rift valley. Here, geysers spurt super-heated water, and magma, or molten rock, rises from the mantle and solidifies into basalt, forming new crust. Thus, at divergent boundaries, oceanic crust is created.

A compound is broken down by chemical means during
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer : Option 3) Electrolysis.


Explanation : In the process of electrolysis, decomposition of the chemical is done by passing the electric current from the liquid or the solution containing ions in it. This is the process where compound is broken into ions namely, cations and anions.


Rest all options does not involves chemical decomposition of the compound.


Chromatography is a technique where rates of solute and solvent are compared in a medium where the solute components move at different rates and the separation is obtained.


Distillation simply purifies the liquid or solution by heating or cooling process.


Filtration just involves removal of impurities by using a more porous material device to get purified compound.
