(B) Why do ionic Compounds have high melting point.
Ans - Ionic compounds are held together by electrostatic forces between the oppositely charged ions . ... As the ionic lattice contains such a large number of ions, a lot of energy is needed to overcome this ionic bonding so ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points.
