Question

question 2 (1 point) which of the following molecular properties does not affect the boiling point of a molecule? strength of covalent bond strength of intermolecular forces size polarity surface area of the molecules

Explanation:

Boiling point is related to the energy needed to separate molecules from the liquid - phase to the gas - phase. Intermolecular forces, size, polarity, and surface - area all affect the strength of the attraction between molecules. Covalent bonds hold atoms within a molecule together, not the attraction between different molecules. When a substance boils, intermolecular forces are broken, not covalent bonds.

Answer:

Strength of covalent bond
