Question
a solid is brittle, has a low melting point, and has the particle model shown. what type of solid is it? ionic network molecular metallic
The solid is brittle with a low melting point, and the particle model shows discrete molecules (not a continuous network, ions, or metal atoms). Molecular solids consist of molecules held by weak intermolecular forces, leading to low melting points and brittleness. Ionic solids have high melting points, network solids are very hard with high melting points, and metallic solids are malleable—not brittle.
