Answer:
Ionic compounds are special because they form lattice or crystalline structures. This formation comes from the ionic bonds that hold the ions together in the compound. Ionic bonds are very strong, which makes them difficult to break apart. Because of this, ions tend to have higher boiling and melting points. If you think about this, it makes sense because melting and boiling are two ways that we can break bonds within molecules.
