and reasons for their
properties
Answers
Answer:
made up of elements. because of same fundamental elements compound are consists of same properties.
Answer:
-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.
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.
