Answer:
False
Explanation:
The attractive force that holds atoms or ions together is called chemical bond.
Lustrous (shiny)
Good conductors of heat and electricity.
High melting point.
High density (heavy for their size)
Malleable (can be hammered)
Ductile (can be drawn into wires)
Usually solid at room temperature (an exception is mercury)
Opaque as a thin sheet (can't see through metals)
The melting points of the compounds from the choices are listed below:
a. C25H52 -> +47 to +56 degrees celsius
b. Hg -> -38.83 degrees celsius
c. CaCl2 -> +772 degrees celsius
d. CuO -> +1326 degrees celsius
It is evident from the listed melting points above that mercury (Hg) has the lowest melting point. This is why mercury is liquid at room temperature.
