Which would you expect to have a higher melting point: sodium chloride, NaCl, or aluminum oxide, Image?
 
  A) The aluminum oxide has a higher melting point because it is a larger molecule and has a greater number of molecular interactions.
  B) NaCl has a higher melting point because it is a solid at room temperature.
  C) The aluminum oxide has a higher melting point because of the greater charges of the ions, and hence the greater force of attractions between them.
  D) The aluminum oxide has a higher melting point because of the covalent bonds within the molecule.

Question 2
