Questions and Answers

What type of crystal lattice is the sodium chloride crystal?

  • Simple cubic lattice
  • Hexagonal close-packed (hcp) lattice
  • Body-centered cubic (bcc) lattice
  • Face-centered cubic (fcc) lattice (correct)

    • Why are most ionic compounds solids with high melting and boiling points?

  • Due to the strong electrostatic forces between the ions (correct)
  • Due to the weak electrostatic forces between the ions
  • Due to the presence of covalent bonds
  • Due to the absence of electrostatic forces

    • Why are some ionic compounds like magnesia (MgO) and alumina (Alâ‚‚O₃) used as refractory materials?

  • They are very stable and can withstand high temperatures (correct)
  • They are easily soluble in water
  • They are good conductors of electricity
  • They have low melting points
