Question

What are covalent compounds? Give examples and mention two important properties of

covalent compounds.​

Answer 1

Covalent compounds have bonds where electrons are shared between atoms. Due to the sharing of electrons, they exhibit characteristic physical properties that include lower melting points and electrical conductivity compared to ionic compounds.

Properties of Covalent Molecular Compounds.

• Low melting points and boiling points.
• Low enthalpies of fusion and vaporization These properties are usually one or two orders of magnitude smaller than they are for ionic compounds.
• Soft or brittle solid forms.
• Poor electrical and thermal conductivity.
