Q

What are some properties of ionic compounds?

A
  • solid at room temp due to giant lattice
  • high melting/boiling point due to strong electrostatic attraction
  • don’t conduct electricity as solid bc ions arent free to move
  • brittle

Q

What is hydrogen bonding?

A

occurs between polar molecules which have a hydrogen directly bonded to oxygen nitrogen or fluorine
these are the most electronegative atoms, pulling pair if electrons closer to themselves leaving hydrogen very δ+

Q

Why is ice less dense than liquid water? (hydrogen bonding)

A

there’s fewer particles of water per unit of volume in the a solid state

in ice water molecules are further apart than in liquid

so theres more gaps between molecules

28
Q

What is the boiling point of a simple molecular crystal structure?

A

LOW
due to weak intermolecular forces between molecules
