Question 11

Water vapour is made of small H2O\text{H}_2\text{O}H2​O molecules. The water vapour is cooled until it condenses. What happens to the forces and bonds during this change?

[1]
A

Intermolecular forces hold the molecules closer together, while the covalent bonds within each molecule stay intact.

B

The intermolecular forces are replaced by covalent bonds when the molecules enter the liquid state.

C

Both the intermolecular forces and the covalent bonds are formed as the molecules become a liquid.

D

The covalent bonds within each molecule become stronger, but the forces between molecules do not change.
