Answer 2

Superior malleability is not a property of covalent compounds. (Option D)

• Covalent compounds have the following properties:

1. Covalent compounds do not have superior malleability.
2. Melting and boiling points are both low.
3. Intermolecular attractions are weak and require little energy.
4. Solids are fragile and come in a variety of colors.
5. Because of the weak intermolecular interactions, they are easily distorted or broken.
6. Heat and electricity conductivity are poor.
