Are ionic compounds usually liquids or gasses?
At normal temperature ionic compounds are neither liquid nor gas they are always solid compounds.
Are ionic compounds allways neutral?
No, they should always not be. As an example, NaOH can be given.
Are ionic compounds hydrophobic?
No. They are almost always hydrophilic and easily dissolve in water.
Give the properties of ionic compounds?
There is one very important property of ionic compounds. Ionic compounds are compounds that will conduct electricity when dissolved in water.
What cations always form soluble compounds?
Cations don't always form soluble compounds. In general, ionic compounds are soluble in very polar solvents such as water and insoluble in nonpolar solvents because the charged ions can be solvated only by polar solvents. Some ionic compounds are insoluble even in water, however.
Are salts always ionic compounds?
Yes.

1) Ionic compounds are not good heat conductors 2) Ionic compounds are not malleable
What is the ionic charge of chlorine in its compounds?
In ionic chlorine compounds, the ionic charge of chlorine is -1.
Do ionic always have charge?
Yes , ionic compounds always have positively charged cations and negatively charged anions. But in an ionic compound the positive and negative charges balance exactly leaving an overall charge of zero
Common substances that form ionic compounds?
substances such as sodium and chlorine for ionic compounds basically it is neutral elements that form ionic compounds
