Want this question answered?
Salts are ionic. If they contain polyatomic ions,(e.g. NH4+ , SO42-.) There are covalent bonds inside these ions.
Compounds with both ionic and covalent bonds contain polyatomic ions.
No because covalent bonds do not contain ions. (as you know electricity its a flow of charges/ions.) Therefore covlalent bonds, no matter in what state, cannot conduct electricity No because covalent bonds do not contain ions. (as you know electricity its a flow of charges/ions.) Therefore covlalent bonds, no matter in what state, cannot conduct electricity
The ammonium ions itself is held together by covalent bonds, but it will form ionic bonds with negative ions.
A covalent bond involves th sharing of electrons NOT ions. Ions are involved in ionic bonds.

Compounds with both ionic and covalent bonds contain polyatomic ions.
Ions are formed in the case of ionic bonds and not covalent bonds.
Covalent bonds hold atoms together. Ionic bonds hold ions together

Since the valency of carbon is 4 it usually form covalent bonds by sharing electrons....

Ions and molecules are the results of two different types of bonds. Ions are the result of ionic bonds and molecules are the result of covalent bonds.
covalent
Ionic compounds contain ions, there are no neutral molecules. These are often charged atoms as in NaCl but may be polyatomic ions such as NH4+ which contains covalent bonds
Ionic bonds are never formed in a covalent bond. Although, there are ions such as sulfate, nitrate and chlorate where covalent bonds are located inside the ion.
