Important Questions on How Do Atoms Bond?
Hydrated cobalt() chloride is pink but anhydrous cobalt() chloride is blue. Suggest how this compound might be used to determine the probability of rain.

Analyse the information in the following table and make scientifically supported judgments about the nature of the bonds between atoms in the first three molecules, compared to the nature of the bonds between atoms in the second group of three molecules.
(Note: The relative molecular mass is calculated by adding the relative atomic mass (RAM) of all the atoms together. The table shows two groups of three molecules with similar molecular mass, and their boiling and melting points)
