Why do ionic compounds have high melting points?
Answers

Answer:-
Ionic compounds are held together by electrostatic forces between the oppositely charged ions . As the ionic lattice contains such a large number of ions, a lot of energy is needed to overcome this ionic bonding so ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points.

Answer:
high melting point in ionic compounds is due to strong electrostatic force between them. it is very hard to separate positive and negative ions in a crystal lattice.
