Q

Solubility meaning

A

-Ionic compounds dissolved in water
-lattice is spilt up by water molecules so the ions can move around freely

Q

Electrostatic forces hold the

A

covalent bonds together

17
Q

Simple covalent structures have a weak __________ _____ that takes less energy to be broken

A

Intermolecular forces

18
Q

Simple covalent structure do not conduct because

A

They don’t have ions to carry the charge- no delocalised electrons

19
Q

Polymers are made from

A

Small molecules joined together

20
Q

Polymers have a low melting point because they are

A

Simple covalent structures - no ions ( delocalised electrons) to carry the change

21
Q

Intermolecular forces are strong or weak?

A

Weak

22
Q

Simple covalent structure have a ______ melting point

A

Low

23
Q

Do Giant covalent structures conduct or not? And why

A

They do not conduct -they do not have delocalised electrons

24
Q

What is Nanoscience

A

The study and use of extremely small substances

25
Q

What is 1 nanometre

A

(1nm)= 0.000.000.001
(1x10 (-9) m)

26
Q

How do you find the surface area?

A

Length x width x how many sides

27
Q

What are nanoparticles used for?

A

-Delivering drugs to the cells needed
-used in suncream ( protects against the UV)

28
Q

Which type of bonding results from the electrostatic force of attraction between positively and negatively charged ions?

A

Ionic bonding
