It emphasizes that a compound's properties are influenced by chemical bonding, affecting melting and boiling points. Molecular compounds typically have lower melting and boiling points and poor electrical conductivity, with solubility in water influenced by hydrogen bonding. Covalent network solids like diamond have strong bonds, necessitating extreme temperatures for vaporization.
