Question
Chapter 24, Problem 24.16QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: Would ionic compound form liquid crystals or not has to be explained
Concept Introduction:
- Liquid crystal exhibits both the properties of liquids (particles are not arranged and are free to move in all directions) and solids (articles are arranged regularly).
- Liquid crystals are anisotropic, that is it shows different properties in different directions based on the orientation of particles in it.
- A substance to be a good liquid crystal must possess rigid structure and must be relatively long while comparing with its width.

- Which of the following best explains why molecular compounds tend have lower melting points than ionic compounds?A) Molecular compounds are held together by covalent bonds, and ionic compounds are held together by ionic bonds. Covalent bonds tend to be weaker than ionic, so less energy is required to break covalent bonds than ionic. Thus, molecular melting points are lower. B) Molecular compounds are held together by covalent bonds, and ionic compounds are held together by ionic bonds. However, it is the noncovalent intermolecular forces that break when molecular compounds melt, which tend to be weaker and require less energy to break than ionic bonds. Thus, molecular melting points are lower. C) Molecular compounds are made only of nonmetal atoms, and ionic compounds are made of metal and nonmetal atoms. The covalent bonds between nonmetal atoms are weaker than they are between metal and nonmetal atoms, so less energy is needed to break nonmetal-nonmetal bonds.
