ANSWER:

Problem 41QP

The melting point of the oxides of the third-period elements are given in parentheses: , , , , , , . Classify these solids in terms of crystal types.

                                                              Step by Step Solution

Step 1 of 2

Consider the given molecules as follows:

These oxides of third period elements are in their highest oxidation states. Since the melting points of ionic crystals are relatively high and the bonding nature in these molecules are ionic, the molecules comes under ionic crystals.
