Question

define inonic bond and write any 5 proerties of ionic componds

Answer 1

Ionic compounds are solids, possess high melting points, conduct electricity, are hard but brittle and are formed from an ionic bond between one metal and one nonmetal. An ionic bond is abond between two elements with opposite charges. The opposing charges attract one another, creating a strong chemical bond.

Answer 2

Definition of ionic bond and its properties:

• It is an electrovalent bond.

• Ionic bond is formed by the sharing of electron between atoms.

• The atom which shares the electron will get positively charged and an atom which gains become negatively charged.

Properties of ionic bond are as follows:

• Ionic compounds have greater boiling and melting point.

• Ionic compound forms a crystal.

• It is formed due to the coulombic attraction between the positively and negatively charged ions.

• Ionic bond is non-directional as the strength of interaction depends upon the distance.

• In solid-state, the ionic compound does not conduct electricity.
• The bond is very strong because of the strong force of attraction.

• Compounds form of ionic bonds are very hard and these conduct electricity only in aqueous medium.
