True, but coming up with a list of 5...Not something you usually think of, I guess.
Most chemistry textbooks define a molecule as a definite arrangement of two or more atoms held together by covalent bonds. I won't bore everyone with the details of what counts as covalent bonds, but the "wrong" answer most people gave was sodium chloride, which is a famous example of an ionic compound. Not an unforgivable mistake, of course.So what's the technical definition of a molecule?
Now I feel better (slightly) for not thinking of NaCl....the "wrong" answer most people gave was sodium chloride, which is a famous example of an ionic compound.
My family is the same way. They always want to help out with my responses and then they keep bugging me about whether the results have been posted yet.I think that was a good category, EB. Truth be told, though, I had to ask my wife to get a 5th answer. Turns out her suggestion of broken taillight was better than my expired registration. She'll be so proud.
