Which statement describes a property of covalent compounds? they have a high boiling point because of strong intermolecular forces. they have a low boiling point because of weak intermolecular forces. they have a low melting point because of strong intermolecular forces. they have a high melting point because of weak intermolecular forces.

Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A compound in which atoms share electrons with each other are known as covalent compounds.

Since there are no strong intermolecular force of attraction between the atoms hence, there bond can be easily broken down.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, the statement they have a low boiling point because of weak intermolecular forces.

i think it is true since you can test the answer and can use observations to complete it.
