Question 1
Question
True or false? Ionic compounds have high melting points because the forces of electrostatic attraction holding them together are strong.
Answer
- True
- False
Question 2
Question
When will ionic compounds conduct electricity?
Answer
-
Solid
-
Liquid
-
In solution with water
-
Gas
Question 3
Question
True or false? Solid ionic compounds conduct electricity because the ions are locked tight together and can pass on charge.
Answer
- True
- False
Question 4
Question
What state would you expect to find simple covalent molecules such as methane in at room temperature?
Answer
-
Solid
-
Liquid
-
Gas
Question 5
Question
Why do simple covalent molecules have low melting and boiling points?
Answer
-
They are smaller so easier to break by heat energy
-
The intermolecular forces are weak and broken during heating
-
They don't have any metal atoms which are heavy and need a lot of heat energy to liquefy

Question 11
Question
True or false? We create alloys to reduce the malleability of metals by breaking up the layered structure of the metal.
Answer
