The boiling points of ionic solids tend to be?
The boiling points of ionic solids tend to be very high.
How would you describe the melting points of the ionic solids?
Ionic solids are characterized by high melting points.
Do ionic solids have low melting points?
No, ionic solids have very high melting points. Ionic solids are one of the strongest bonds formed among elements.
Why do ionic solids have high melting point?
This is because ionic bonds are very strong, so it takes a lot of heat energy to break up the lattice and form a liquid. In fact all ionic substances are solid at room temperature.
Are orderly crystal shapes high melting points and electrical conductivity when dissolved in water properties of ionic compounds?
yes it is ionic
What characteristics do ionic liquids have?
Such liquids have high density, good electrical conductivity and become solid as temperature decreases from their melting point.
Why does calcium nitrate have a high conductivity?
ionic salt

Why doesn't table salt melt easy?
Table salt (NaCl) is an ionic solid. Ionic solids are held by electrostatic forces of attraction. These forces are very strong and account for the high melting point of NaCl.
Are orderly crystal shapes high melting points and electrical conductivity when dissolved in water properties of ionic compounds?
yes it is ionic
What properties do ionic solids have?
-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.
Are ionic bonds solids liquids or gases at room temperature?
All ionic compounds are solid at room temperature because ionic bonds are very strong and it takes a lot of heat energy to break them to turn them into a liquid or a solid. 400-1400 degrees can be used to break the bonds.
What would cause a high reading of conductivity?
Any metal or an ionic substance in liquid/aqueous form
What properties may be used to ionic compounds?
crystal shape, high melting points, and electrical conductivity
