covalent compound ionic compounds
1)it has low melting and boiling points it has high melting and boiling points
2)they exist in all 3 states(solid,liquid & it can only exist in solid state
gaseous)
3)they do not conduct electricity they conduct electricity
4)they are soluble in non-polar they are not soluble in non-polar solvents but not soluble in H2O. solvents but soluble in H2O.

-ionic compounds also exist as liquids
-ionic compounds do not conduct electricity, free ions do.
-ionic compounds are soluble in polar covalent solvents. e.g salt is soluble in water
