(b)How melting point of a substance indicates the strength of its forces of attraction?
Answers
★ Melting point of a substance is Directly depends upon the bond strength inside the substance. In terms of forces , Greater the force of attraction or bond strength between bonds of a substance , Higher will be it's melting point.
- As , Melting starts with leakage of bonds attraction , so melting is the result of breakage of bonds or force of attraction.
• key point → Greater the intermolecular force , Higher will be melting point means the substance will take more time to melt.
Answer:
If melting point of a substance is high means the bond strength between the atoms of a substance is strong.
Explanation:
The bond strength in strong then the energy or heat is more required to break the bond between the atoms.
if bond strength is weak like vander waal force of attraction takes place means only attraction takes place then low energy is required and bond is break.
Hence, melting point is depend on strength of bond
