Explanation:​
C3H6​ belongs to the alkene class with the general formula CnH2n​, and has a three carbon chain.

Explanation​:
Neither material is electrically conductive. Diamond has no delocalized electrons, while the delocalized electrons in buckminsterfullerene are confined within the molecule. There is no extended lattice of bonds through which the electrons can move in response to an applied potential difference. Diamond is a hard material; a large force is required to break the strong covalent bonds between atoms.

Buckminsterfullerene, however, is soft, as only a small force is needed to overcome the weak intermolecular (London / dispersion) forces between molecules.

This question is moderately difficult, as the student must recall multiple features of the two carbon allotropes or deduce their physical properties from the diagrams given.

Explanation​:
There is no polyatomic ion with the formula of CO4 ^2−​. The correct formula for the carbonate ion is CO3^2−​. The formulas and charges of the other ions are correct.

Explanation​:
NH3​ has all of the bonds/forces named above, but its high boiling point is due to the presence of hydrogen bonds which are the strongest intermolecular forces. Hydrogen bonding is possible due to the presence of N−H bonds.

Explanation:​
Triple bonds are stronger than double bonds which are in turn stronger than single bonds. The greater the number of shared pairs of electrons, the stronger the bond and the greater the bond enthalpy.

Explanation​:
Oxidation reaction; Magnesium is much less electronegative than oxygen, so the Mg atoms lose electrons to the O atoms during the reaction. This process forms positive Mg2+ ions, termed cations, and negative O2− ions, termed anions.

This question is categorized as easy, as the student must recall two pieces of information that are covered extensively in the syllabus.

Explanation:
Fluorine is the most electronegative element on the periodic table. Therefore, the greatest difference in electronegativity between $\mathrm{C}$ and $\mathrm{F}$ results in the most polar bond.

Explanation​:
Strontium is in group 2 and so forms Sr2+ ions. The formula of the sulfide ion is S2− as sulfur is in group 16. For the positive and negative charges to cancel out, one of each ion is required.

Explanation​:
Recall that hydrogen bonds are the strongest intermolecular forces, and London forces are the weakest.

Explanation:​
Atom 1 has four electron domains and so a tetrahedral shape (109.5$°$).
Atom 2 has three electron domains and so a trigonal planar shape (120$°$).
Atom 3 has four electron domains of which one is a lone pair giving it a trigonal pyramidal shape (107$°$).

Explanation:
Ionic bonds form between oppositely charged ions; NH4^+ and SO4^2− in ammonium sulfate and Na^+ and CO3^2− in sodium carbonate.

Due to a smaller difference in electronegativity and both being nonmetals, $\mathrm{l}$ bonds are polar covalent.

Explanation:​
All three central atoms (N, C, and O) have four electron domains. An increasing number of lone pairs reduces the angle between the bonding pairs.
In CH4​ there are no lone pairs and it has a tetrahedral shape with bond angles of 109.5$°$.
In NH3​ there is one lone pair and it has a trigonal pyramidal shape with bond angles of 107°.
In H2​O, there are two lone pairs, and it has a bent shape with bond angles of 104.5$°$.

Explanation​:
Volatility refers to the ease at which a substance vaporizes. Ionic bonds are very strong and, therefore, a lot of energy is required to turn ionic compounds into gases.

Polar solvents are able to form electrostatic forces of attraction with ions.

Explanation:​
Metals characteristically have high melting points due to strong metallic bonds.

Explanation:​
The strength of metallic bonding and therefore melting point, decreases down a group due to increasing atomic radius (more energy levels) and greater separation of the nuclei. Cs is in period 6, while all other 3 elements are in period 5. Hence, Cs has the lowest melting point. Since atomic radius decreases across a period due to increased effective nuclear charge, the strength of metallic bonding, and therefore melting point, increases from Rb to Zr.

Explanation​:
Simple molecular covalent structures cannot conduct electricity due to an absence of charged particles. $\mathrm{NaCl}$ is an ionic compound that has ions that are free to move when in a molten state.

Explanation:​
The central atom is carbon with two C-H single bonds and one C=O bond. This gives 3 electron domains and 8 valence electrons.
