Polymers and Giant covalent structures
Slides in this set (2)
-
- small units linked together to make a chain
- joined by strong covalent bonds
- strong intermolecular forces so more energy needed to break them
- solid at room teperature
- lower boiling points than ionic or giant molecular compounds
-
- all atoms bonded together by strong covalent bonds
- very high melting and boiling points
- can't conduct electricity
- consists of structures such as diamond, graphite and silicon dioxide
