level: Properties of small covalent molecules

Questions and Answers List

Question	Answer
Why do small covalent molecules have low melting and boiling point	Even though they have strong covalent bonds the intermolecular forces between each molecule is weak and doesn't require a lot of energy to break
What happens as we increase the size of a covalent molecule	The intermolecular force increases - which leads to the boiling point increasing as they require more energy to break
Why do small covalent molecules not conduct electricity	The molecule has no overall electrical charge
