Question 3
Question
Simple Covalent Molecule:
- Contains a [blank_start]few[blank_end] atoms.

- have [blank_start]weaker[blank_end] van der waal force between molecules.
- have low melting point and [blank_start]boiling point[blank_end].
- do not dissolve in [blank_start]water[blank_end] but inorganic solvent.

Question 4
Question
Covalent (Simple) Molecules have a low melting point and boiling point.
- Simple covalent molecules have [blank_start]strong[blank_end] covalent bond within the atoms.
- However, they have [blank_start]weaker[blank_end] inter-molecular attraction force, known a Van der Waal force.
- So it requires [blank_start]small[blank_end] energy to break the attraction force.
Covalent molecules do not dissolve in water.
- Covalent molecules are mostly [blank_start]non-polar[blank_end].
Water is a [blank_start]polar compound[blank_end].
- Non-polar molecules like H2, Cl2, N2 and CH4 will [blank_start]not be dissolved[blank_end].
- However some molecules like HCl, NH [blank_start]will be dissolved[blank_end].
