neutrons.

8.

How does a molecular compound compare to the elements that make up

the compound?

a)

The properties of a compound depend on the identity of the component

elements, and not the chemical bonds they form.

The properties of a compound depend on the size of the molecule, and not

the component elements.

c)

The properties of a compound are generally similar to the properties of the

elements that make it up.

d)

The properties of a compound are usually very different from the properties of

the elements that make it up.
