Hey there!

Q) Tell About The Characteristics Of Ionic & Covalent Compounds.

A) Firstly, what are Ionic Compounds?
So, The compounds which are formed as a result of transfer of ions are called ionic compounds.

Characteristics -:

#1 They are made by the transfer of ions

#2 They are made between metals & non-metals

#3 They have high melting & boiling points because of strong attractive force between the oppositely charged Ions.

#4 They are insoluble in non-polar solvent but soluble in polar solvent.

#5 They are bad conductors in solid state but good conductors in aqueous or molten state.

#6 They do nor exhibit isomerism.

#7 They are non-directional.

#8 Their reactions are fast due to presence of ions.

__________________________

Now, what are Covalent Compounds?
So, Covalent Compounds are the compounds formed as a result of mutual sharing of electrons between the non-metals.

Characteristics -:

#1 They are made by the mutual sharing of electrons.

#2 They are made between non-metals.

#3 They have low melting & boiling points since atoms are held together by weak attractive forces.

#4 They are soluble in non-polar solvents but insoluble in polar solvents.

#5 They are poor conductors of electricity.

#6 They do show isomerism.

#7 They are directional.

#8 Their reactions are very slow.

hey there !!

\red{IONIC\: COMPOUNDS}:-
in this compound two ions attracts each other to their side .

\red{COVALENT \:COMPOUNDS}:-
it is a form of chemical bonding between two non metallic atoms which is characterized by the sharing of pairs of {two electrons} electrons between atoms and other covalent bonds.

\boxed{ CHARACTERISATION /:OF/: CONVOLENT\: COMPOUNDS}

(i) Low melting and boiling points

(ii) Non-conducting nature

(iii) Solubility

(iv) Slow rate of reaction

(v) Isomerism

\boxed{ CHARACTERISATION\: OF \: IONIC \: COMPOUNDS}

)Hard

)Form crystal lattices not molecules

)Good insulators.

)High melting points/ Boiling Points.

)Conduct electricity when dissolved in water or as a liquid. 

)Solids do not conduct electricity.
