• Oxygen

• Both hydrogen and oxygen

• Neither hydrogen nor oxygen

What type of solid is NaCl described as in the text?

• Metallic solid

• Covalent solid

• Ionic solid

What is the relationship between the size of atoms and the attractive force?

• Larger atoms have more attractive force

• Smaller atoms have less attractive force

• Larger atoms have less attractive force

• Size does not affect attractive force

What does a higher attractive force between atoms result in?

• Lower melting and boiling points

• Higher melting and boiling points

• No change in melting and boiling points

• Atoms are easier to separate

What does a higher lattice energy indicate?

• Weaker force of attraction between ions

• Stronger force of attraction between ions

• No force of attraction between ions

• Equal force of attraction between ions

What happens to atomic radius as you move down a column in the periodic table?

• It decreases

• It increases

• It stays the same

• It fluctuates
