What are the similarities between ionic crystals and solid metals?
Both of them are solids ad chemical bonds hold them together
Do ionic compounds form crystals?
Usually ionic compounds form crystals when in their solid state.
Is gold and platnium a ionic solid?
Gold and platinum are not ionic solids, they are metals held together by metallic bonds not ionic bonds.
Why do solid crystals of ionic compounds conduct electricity when the crystals dissolve in water?
NaCl Add water. Na + Cl - Electrons have flowed and that is all electricity is, electron flow.
Why does different samples of a solid ionic compound are made up of crystals that have approximately the same shape?
when ionic compounds form solids, they make a crystal lattice. This is built up so that the positive ions are nearest to the negative ions, forming a solid.

Why ionic crystals don't conduct electricity in the solid state?
In the solid state ionic crystals are not dissociated in ions.
Do ionic compounds form crystals?
Usually ionic compounds form crystals when in their solid state.
Which Material forms crumbly crystals and has a melting point of 16.6 Celsius has a low density in solid form?
This is acetic acid, a molecular solid. The low melting point indicates that it's not a network atomic solid or ionic solid, and the fact that it forms crystals rules out metals and amorphous soilds.
What is a metal crystals?
Metal crystals describe the crystal structures that are found in metals. Once metals freeze and become solid, crystals are formed from the atoms.
What kind of solid is formed by salts?
Crystallized solids with ionic bonds.
Is gold and platnium a ionic solid?
Gold and platinum are not ionic solids, they are metals held together by metallic bonds not ionic bonds.
What is the meaning of lattice dissociation?
The ionic compounds exist as solid crystals or Lattice, when such compounds are added to water crystals break down into ions ,it is dissociation (breaking) of lattice.
Why do solid crystals of ionic compounds conduct electricity when the crystals dissolve in water?
NaCl Add water. Na + Cl - Electrons have flowed and that is all electricity is, electron flow.
Is Potassium chloride ionic?
its ionic because, potassium chloride contains solid, its made out of solid and all potassium compounds are included in there.... so the answer is yes, potassium chloride is ionic its not covalent...covalent is made by chemical boindings and metallic bindings are which are made of metals. yes, ionic
What are the similarities metals and nonmetals have in common?
Metals and nonmetals are both in the periodic table. They both have atoms in them.
Why do ionic crystals cunduct electric current in the liquid phase or when desolved in water but do not conduct electric current in the solid phase?
Magnetricity.
