Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Molecular solids consist of discrete molecules held together by intermolecular forces such as dipole-dipole forces, London dispersion forces, and/or hydrogen bonds. Metallic bonds are not present in molecular solids as they involve the delocalization of electrons in a metal lattice.
