Question 2
The temperature at which a solid melts is the melting point of the solid. The melting point is an indication of the intermolecular forces that hold a solid together. Aluminum melts at 660C. Gold melts at 1064C. Lead melts at 328C.
Which one of the following ranks the intermolecular forces in these solid elements from the strongest to the weakest? A) Au > Al > Pb
B) Al > Au > Pb
C) Pb > Au > Al
D) Au > Pb > Al
