Which statement regarding water is true? Energy must be given off in order to break down the crystal lattice of ice to a liquid. Hydrogen bonds are stronger than covalent bonds. Liquid water is less dense than solid water. Only covalent bonds are broken when ice melts. All of the statements (A-D) are false

Respuesta :

Answer:  All of the statements (A-D) are false

Explanation: All of the given statements are wrong as Hydrogen bonds are weaker than the ionic and the covalent bonds.

Liquid water is more dense than the solid water.

When heat or temperature is provided to the system of the ice, not only covalent bonds are broken but also hydrogen bonds also get broke.

Energy must not be given off in order to break down the crytsal lattice of ice to a liquid. Infact in changing the phase of the water, energy is released.
