Question

Which of the following is a property of ionic compounds ?
They have low melting and boiling points
They are poor conductors of electricity
They are soluble in water
They are liquids​

Answer 1

• From the given option: They are soluble in water, is correct.

• We know that most of the Ionic compound is soluble in water.

• For the charged ions water molecules have a strong attraction.

• So that the charged ions become solvated.

• Ions in the solid, separate and disperse uniformly from the solution when the ionic compounds dissolve in water.
• Hence the correct option is: They are soluble in water.
