does someone from here know chemistry??? :)) Can someone help??? plzzzzz is a substance with no solid conductivity but it has liquid and aqueous contivity and has a melting point of 204 covalent or ionic compound?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

204... what units?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

melting point

OpenStudy (turingtest):

there is a chemistry section please post this there thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

covalent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no one can help me there

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its covalent as if it was ionic the melting point would have been higher due to the inherent strength of ionic bonds.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok thank very much!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

scratch that its ionic. as ionic substances are conductive in aquesous and liquid forms

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my bad

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its an ionic compound?? Because covalent compound have a low melting point so I think ur right that with a low melting point of 204 it can a covalent bond

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

a melting point of two hundred and four what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

degrees centigrams

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[[°\text{cg}]\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

without the g

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

centi means \(\times10^2\) so,,,

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

huh?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

no gravity?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[C degrees\]

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

oh degrees Celsius \[[°\text C]\]

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

that is kinda hot

OpenStudy (anonymous):

http://learn.flvs.net/webdav/educator_chemistry_v10/module03/03_06c_c.htm this is the link is the first thee it is

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[402[°\text C]\]

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

*Cookie Error

OpenStudy (anonymous):

playing around huh??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the cookie just fried with 402 degrees!

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

the link diden't work when i click it

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

what kind of things would melt at 204[°C]

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

metal ? no. salt? no.

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

maybe some plastic

OpenStudy (anonymous):

omg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they dont give me the name of the susbstance

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

blue

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nevermind dear friend

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o.O?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

well d'you know how fo figure out if \[\text{CuSO}_4·5\text{H}_2\text{O}\]has ionic or covalent bonds

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah but what does that have to do with my question??? So ramdom

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

isn't this your question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think ur really confused :))

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

.....covalent or ionic compound?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

we knew that already.

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

was the substance blue or white at 204[°C]

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

204[°C] is not that hot for a chemical

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know.... its lowwwwwww and since its a lowwwwwww temperature. what I want to know if an ionic compound can have that low temperature, because they usually have high temperatures

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

ions will not separate at this low temp

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

so the melted substance isnt a salty ionic compound

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so ita a ta ta tan! covalent compound?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

meabe??

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

yeps, hydrated copper sulfate is covalent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

copper sulfate???

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

was blue first right, that was water molecules clinging on

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

as the power reached 200ish°C the H2O molecules bounced away and the powder goes white

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup
