Estimating exactly how long treated lumber will take to dry is hard to predict, and will depend on the time elapsed since pressure treatment, sun exposure, local temperature and recent weather conditions. Take these factors into consideration for your specific installation and use your best judgment.
sugar is a covalent bond made up of 12 atoms of carbon, 22 atoms of hydrogen and 11 atoms of oxygen. (C12H22O11) it is covalent because it is made up of bonds between non-meta â¦ ls.
1 Most crystals are ionic compounds. 2  This is because the ions in these compounds tend to stack into crystal lattices to balance between the attractive forces between opposite ions and the repulsive forces between like ions. 3  Covalent or molecular compounds can exist as crystals, though. Ionic compounds tend to have higher melting and boiling points than covalent compounds. 2  Ionic compounds tend to be hard and brittle while covalent compounds tend to be softer and more flexible. 3  Ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water while covalent compounds typically don't.
