Why are simple covalent compounds unique?
Have 2 types of bonding -> Intermolecular and intramolecular
What do physical properties depend on?
Depend on intermolecular forces
How are covalently bonded I2 molecules held together?
Held together by weak VDW
How are I2 molecules bonded?
Covalently
How do we know there are 2 types of bonding in I2 for example?
Distance between atoms not covalently bonded is nearly double between those that are
How do VDW break?
When melted
What are VDW?
Weak forces between molecules
What are covalent bonds?
Strong forces within the molecule
Why does iodine vaporise easily on warming?
Weak forces of attraction between molecule -> low temp can break these
Can the simple molecular structure conduct electricity?
No because no free electrons or ions to move and carry charge
