Question
Matching – classify the solids according to their predominant bonding type:
45. Metallic solids ___ (A) Discrete molecules held together by intermolecular forces
46. Ionic solids ___ (B) Extended networks of atoms held together by covalent bonds
47. Molecular solids ___ (C) Extended networks of atoms held together by metallic bonding
48. Covalent-network solids ___ (D) Extended network of ions held together by cation-anion interactions
Explanation / Answer
Ans : The solids can be predominantly classified on the basis of the interatomic bonding or interactions present in them. So here :
45 . Mertallic solids : C) Extended networks of atoms held together by metallic bonding
46. Ionic solids : D) Extended network of ions held together by cation - anion interactions.
47. Molecular solids bonding : A) Discrete molecules held together by intermolecular forces.
48. Covalent network solids : B) Extended networks of atoms held together by covalent bonds.
