Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
What happens when water boils has to be found. Wheather the boiling breaks the covalent bonds within molecules or the hydrogen bonds between the molecules get disrupted has to be found.
Concept Introduction:
Covalent bonds are formed by sharing of electrons between atoms.
Ionic bonds are formed by the complete transfer of one or more electrons to the other atom, thereby the bonded atoms acquire opposite charges to each other.
The ionic bond is formed due to the electrostatically attraction between the opposite charged atoms.
Intermolecular force: the attractive force that withholds two molecules is called as intermolecular force. The influence of intermolecular forces depends on molar mass and the
