प्रश्न
Two non-metals combine with each other by the sharing of electrons to form a compound X.
(a) What type of chemical bond is present in X?
(b) State whether X will have a high melting point or low melting point.
(c) Will it be a good conductor of electricity or not?
(d) Will it dissolve in an organic solvent or not?
उत्तर
(a) Covalent bond is present compound X because it is formed by sharing of electrons.
(b) Compound X has a low melting point because it is a covalent compound.
(c) Being a covalent compound, it will not be a good conductor of electricity.
(d) Covalent compounds dissolve in an organic solvent. Since X is a covalent compound, it will dissolve in an organic solvent.
