Bulk Properties of Materials
What you need to know
Explain how the observable bulk properties of materials (such as ionic compounds, simple molecules, giant covalent structures, polymers, and metals) arise directly from the distinct types of bonding they contain.
Relate specific bond strengths and intermolecular forces to the macroscopic behaviors of these distinct materials.
Understand and articulate that single atoms on their own do not possess the same properties as the bulk materials they collectively form.
