Use the standard reduction potentials located in the 'Tables' linked above to calculate the equilibrium constant for the reactio
n: 2H+(aq) + Cu(s) H2(g) + Cu2+(aq)
Hint: Carry at least 5 significant figures during intermediate calculations to avoid round off error when taking the antilogarithm. You may use the OWL references to find the values you may need in this question.
The melting and boiling points of molecular compounds are generally quite low compared to those of ionic compounds. This is because the energy required to disrupt the intermolecular forces between molecules is far less than the energy required to break the ionic bonds in a crystalline ionic compound
