प्रश्न
Give reason why the carbon compounds generally have low melting and boiling points.
उत्तर
Carbon compounds generally have low melting points and boiling points because the force of attraction between the molecules of carbon compounds is not very strong. These weak intermolecular forces make them very easy to pull apart from each other. Since they are easy to separate, carbon compounds have low melting and boiling points.
