Question

Write 5 points of difference between ionic compound and covalent compound

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

in covalent bond electron are shared within both atoms                                                    in ionic bond electrons are transfered to other atom and complete valency                        covalent bond is formed between two non metals                                                             ionic bond formed between metal and non metal                                                           covalent bond are easier to break than ionic bond                                               covalent bond is neutral while ionic is charged                                                                     covalent bond can formed between the same atoms as in H2 while ionic cannot                                      

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Stronger bond in ionic

Greater electronegativity difference between elements in ionic

Stronger melting point

Stronger boiling point

Soluble in water
