Question

which statement describes a property of covalent compounds? they have a high boiling point because of strong intermolecular forces. they have a low boiling point because of weak intermolecular forces. they have a low melting point because of strong intermolecular forces. they have a high melting point because of weak intermolecular forces.

Explanation:

Covalent compounds have weak intermolecular forces. Weak intermolecular forces require less energy to overcome, resulting in low melting and boiling points.

Answer:

They have a low boiling point because of weak intermolecular forces.
