1. These compounds have high melting and Boiling point.
2. These compounds are soluble in water and insoluble in organic solvants.
3. They are Crystalline solids because of strong forces of attraction between the positive and negative ions.
4. These are generally brittle and break into pieces when pressure is applied.

hello Dost ☺
Answer :
Properties of ionic compounds
1. Physical nature:solid and hard due to strong force of attraction. (generally brittle)
2. Melting point and boiling point:have high M.P and B.P, as large amount of heat energy is required to break strong ionic attraction.
3. Solubility: soluble in water and insoluble in kerosene and pertrol.
4. Conduction of electricity:ionic compounds in solid state- does not conduct electricity.
Reason—Ions can not move due to rigid solid structure. Ionic compounds conduct electricity in molten state.
Thanks ☺
