There are many properties. Here is a short list of main properties:
They form crystals. Ionic compounds form crystal lattices rather than amorphous solids.
They have higher enthalpies of fusion and vaporization than molecular compounds.
They are hard.
They are brittle.
They have high melting points and also high boiling points.
They conduct electricity but only when they are dissolved in water.

Properties of ionic compounds are:
1)melting and boiling points : they have high melting and boiling points
2) Physical nature : they are solids and somewhat hard
3)Solubility : they are soluble in water but not in solvents like kerosene
4)Electrical conductivity : they are good conductors of electricity in molten state
