VERIFIED SOLUTIONS LATEST 2025 UPDATE.
Metal exraction - ANSWER- Potassium -> aluminium = electrolysis, Zinc -> copper =
extracted using carbon, Silver -> platinum = found native
Things that have a giant covalent structure: - ANSWER- Diamond, graphite, silicone dioxide,
silicone
Properties of simple molecular - ANSWER- Weak intermolecular forces, low melting point,
cumulative intermolecular forces, does not conduct electricity (except acids)
Properties of giant ionic - ANSWER- Regular lettuce of oppositely charged ions, high melting
point, conduct electricity when molten or in aqueous solutions
Properties of giant covalent - ANSWER- High melting points, conductivity varies
