Ionic bonds are not particularly strong in a liquid phase.
Materials with ionic bonds normally conduct electricity only in a liquid state. However metals, which have what are sometimes called "delocalized" ionic bonds, also conduct electricity in the solid state. It is now customary to consider metallic bonds a separate class from both ionic and covalent bonds.
-They have very high melting and boiling points, thanks to the strong ionic bonds. -Most of them dissolve readily in water. -They are crystals in the solid state. -They are brittle substances. -They don't conduct electricity in the solid state, but they do in aqueous or liquid state. This is because of the availability of free ions.
The usual state of an ionic compound at room temperature and pressure is usually solid because the ions in the ionic compound are held by strong ionic bonds that requires a large amount of energy to overcome these bonds.
metallic, ionic
Ionic bonds are formed between metallic and non-metallic elements. The electrostatic attractions between the oppositely charged ions forms a lattice structure. Ionic compounds share similar properties, such as not conducting electricity while solid. But good electrical conductivity in aqueous solution or a liquid state.

Could be in solid state, liquid or gas or ionic state. This ionic state is also known to be plasma state.
There are free ions in the liquid state of ionic compound, hence the are good conductors of electricity.
An ionic liquid is something that consists of ions in a liquid state, so basically any salt, i.e. NaCl, table salt, in a liquid form, which is also extremely hot, is an ionic liquid.

its simple. ionic compounds have strong electrovalent bonds which need more heat to be broken down. hence more heat is needed to convert the solid into its other state. therefore high melting and boiling point.
Covelaently bonded molecules are bonded together by intermolecular forces, which arent very strong therefore they can readily change state from either a solid or a liquid to a gaseous state
No, calcium tends to form ionic bonds when in compounds. In its pure metallic state, it forms metallic bonds.
