Why do covalent compounds have significantly lower melting/boiling points than ionic compounds?

Consider the equilibrium system: 2icl(s) ⇄ i2(s) + cl2(g) which of the following changes will increase the total amount of of cl2 that can be produced? all of the listed answers are correct decreasing the volume of the container removing the cl2 as it is formed adding more icl(s) removing some of the i2(s)

Why doesn't heat added to water make the tempature rise above 100c

In 1901, thomas edison invented the nickel-iron battery. the following reaction takes place in the battery. fe(s) + 2 nio(oh)(s) + 2 h2o(l) fe(oh)2(s) + 2 ni(oh)2(aq) how many mole of fe(oh)2, is produced when 5.35 mol fe and 7.65 mol nio(oh) react?
