- Melting and Boiling Point
Across the period, elements in groups 1, 2, and 3 have strong metallic bonds. The melting and boiling points increase since a lot of energyEnergy is the ability to do work. Energy exists in several forms such as heat, kinetic or mechanical energy, light, potential energy, and electrical energy. Units of Energy: The SI unit... More is needed to break these bonds. The melting and boiling points of the elements in group 4 are very high. These elements have a covalent bond that links them together forming a giant three-dimensional crystalline lattice like that of a diamond.
