Interactive Course Summary
Covalent Network Solids and Crystalline Lattices — Covalent network solids consist of atoms continuously linked via an infinite interconnected lattice of directional covalent bonds (e.g., $sp^3$ hybridized carbon in diamond or $\text{SiO}_2$ tetrahedra). This extended rigid bonding structure yields exceptionally high melting points and extreme Mohs scale hardness.
