Answer 1

Answer:

Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points.

They are good conductors of electricity in molten state.

They dissolve in water but not in petrol or kerosene.

Answer 2

Question:-

Properties of ionic compounds..??

Answer:-

Properties of Ionic Compounds:-

• Ionic Compounds have high boiling and melting points as they’re very strong and require a lot of energy to break..

• The electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions lead to the formation of ions..

• Ionic compounds form crystals..

• These compounds are brittle and break into small pieces easily..

• Electrovalent compounds usually dissolve in water and are insoluble in solvents like oil, petrol, kerosene, etc..

• Ionic compounds do not conduct electricity in a solid-state but they do conduct electricity in the molten state..

• In comparison to molecular compounds, ionic compounds have higher enthalpies of fusion and vaporization..
