Classify each of the following as a molecular, an ionic, a network, or a metallic solid by matching a substance on the left with a description on the right. Clear All dry ice (CO2) lime (CaO) gold bar (Au) sand (SiO2) Molecular Ionic Network Metallic

Sand - A network

Dry Ice - Molecule

Lime - Ionic

Gold bar - Metallic

Explanation:

The items are;

dry ice (CO2)

lime (CaO)

gold bar (Au)

sand (SiO2)

The options are;

molecular,

an ionic,

a network,

or a metallic solid

Among the items, the only metal present is the gold bar. So it makes sense that the gold bar is matched with 'Metallic solid'.

The Calcium oxide is an 'ionic' compound as it contains the calcium ion and the oxygen ion bonded by an electrovalent bond.

Dry Ice, CO2 is a molecule composed of one carbon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms via two double bonds. So it is matched with 'Molecular'

The only option left is 'A network' and it is matched with Sand (SiO2).

The result is given as;

Sand - A network

Dry Ice - Molecule

Lime - Ionic

Gold bar - Metallic

it’s previous models   because when i picked that son of a gun’s answer it was wrong look for previous models because they might make it a different letter
