The factor that is generally responsible for higher melting point is intermolecular forces. The compounds that are covalent in nature are made of molecules rather than ions. It has been seen that some of the covalent compounds have polar molecules at one end, due to which the one end has more electronegative force than the other. The electrostatic force that is bounding the compound is the main cause of higher melting point of this compound. So it is true that with the increase of polarity of a compound creates higher melting point. .. hope I helped
Your answer is correct, I do not understand why it would be wrong.
The electron accepting tendency of an atom is known as the tendency of an atom to accept an electron. This is ranked on a scale of 0.7 to 3.98 and these species have the following values:
F: 3.98
O: 3.44
C: 2.55
Be: 1.57
Li: 0.98
it will be hard, but you can do it. Just study given the materials for the course. Understand enthalpy and entropy, and various types of bonding and you'll be fine.
Another name for chemical change would be chemical reaction.
