Question

why does sodium chloride have a high melting point?

Answer 1

Sodium chloride has a high meltingand boiling point. There are strong electrostatic attractions between the positive and negative ions, and it takes a lot of heat energy to overcome them. Ionic substances all have high meltingand boiling points.

Answer 2

Hi friend,

Here is your answer,

Sodium chloride has high melting point because it consists of ionic bonding. In ionic bonding the force of attraction is very high and it takes a lot of energy to overcome this force.
