level questions: States, Structures and Bonding

QuestionAnswer
The Type of Bonding affect what Properties of the Material?-The Melting and Boiling Point. -It how much Energy you put in the Atom, molecule or Ion to get Apart
Stronger Bonds that keep the Particles together equals...-More Heat Energy needed to Change the Particles State.
Simple Molecules: Describe its Melting and Boiling Point-Has a fairly low Melting and Boiling point, because of the weak Intermolecular Forces between the Molecules.
Metals: Describes its Melting and Boiling Point-High Melting and Boiling point because the Metal Ions are Strongly Attached to the Delocalised Electron Sea [The Free Electrons]
Ionic Lattice Structure: Describes its Melting and Boiling Point-High Melting and Boiling Point because the Ions are Strongly Attached to each other by Strong Electrostatic Attraction
Giant Covalent Lattices: Describe its Melting and Boiling Point-Held by Strong Covalent Bonds that need a lot of Energy to break results in it have a High Melting and Boiling Point -Some even Sublime [Go from Solid to Gas]
eg Particle A has a Melting Point of 1410 degrees Celsius Boiling Point of 2355 degrees Celsius Bad Electrical Conductor overall -What Structure would A have?-A has a High Melting and Boiling Point, meaning it probably won't be a Simple Molecule -Doesn't Conduct electricity well, so its not a Metal. and Ionic Compounds can only conduct Electricity when Molten or Dissovled -Giant Covalent Structures don't usually Conduct Electricity and have a High Melting and Boiling Point, so its most likely a Giant Covalent Structure
