Question

Ionic compounds have high melting points. why

Answer 1

Ionic compounds typically have high melting and boiling points, and are hard and brittle. ... These oppositely charged compounds are held together by strong electrostatic forces of attraction. As these forces are very strong, a considerable amount of heat energy is required to break them.

Answer 2

because they attract ions nd need more energy for attraction...thats y it is not easy to break ionic bond...nd have high melting point...
