✯IONIC COMPOUND :
➊. ionic compounds are usually crystalline solids.
➋. ionic compound have high melting point and boiling points that is ionic compound are nonvolatile.
➌. ionic compounds are usually soluble in water.
➍. it conduct electricity when dissolve in water.
➎. ionic compounds are insoluble in organic solvents like alcohol, Ether, Acetone etc.
✯COVALENT COMPOUND :
➊. covalent compounds are usually liquids or gases. only some of them are solids.
➋. covalent compounds have usually low melting point and boiling points that is, covalent compounds are usually volatile.
➌. covalent compounds are usually insoluble in water except glucose,sugar,urea etc.
➍. it is not conduct electricity.
➎. covalent compounds are soluble in organic solvents.

The difference between ionic and covalent compounds is given below:
Ionic compound:
- These compounds are formed by ions which have differences in their electronegativity or are positive or negative ions, forming an ionic bond.
- These compounds are mainly formed by bonds between metals and non-metals.
- The compounds are solid in nature have fixed shapes and are crystalline.
- For example, NaCl is formed from Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions.
Covalent compound:
- These compounds are formed by atoms which cannot donate or accept electrons from another atom, but rather share them and form a covalent bond.
- These compounds are mainly formed bonds between non-metals.
- The compounds are liquid or gaseous in nature.
- For example, CH₄ is formed from 1 atom of C and 4 atoms of H by sharing electrons.
