Zusammenfassung der Ressource
Compounds
- Ionic
- Between non-metal and metal atoms
- Giant Structure
- High Melting + Boiling Points
- Attraction between + and - ions is strong
- Doesn't conduct electricity when solid.
- Conducts electricity when liquid
- This is because Ions are free to move.
- Covalent
- Forms between Non- metal atoms
- Simple Structure
- Low Melting + Boiling Points
- Have weak intermolecular forces
- Doesn't conduct electricity
- This is because there is no overall charge.
