Anhydrous is covalent. If the lattice energy for for , will it remain covalent or become ionic in aqueous solution?
1. It will remain covalent
2. It will remain ionic
3. It may or may not become ionic
4. Being ionic or covalent of any molecule is independent of ionisation energy
The melting point of is and that of is (it sublimes) because:
1. There is a very large difference in the ionic character of the Al - F and Si - F bonds
2. In interacts very strongly with the neighboring ions to give a three-dimensional structure but in no such interaction is possible
3. The silicon ion in the tetrahedral is not shielded effectively from the fluoride ions whereas in ion is shielded on all sides
4. The attractive forces between the molecules are strong whereas those between the molecule are weak
In the series ethane, ethylene and acetylene, the C - H bond energy is
1. The same in all the three compounds
2. Greatest in ethane
3. Greatest in ethylene
4. Greatest in acetylene
