How is an acid similar to ionic compounds?
Although Acid is covalently bonded they break apart in water like ionic compounds. How ever they do not conduct electricity like ionic compounds
What compounds break up into ions in solution?
Ionic compounds are dissociated in water solution.
What happens when ionic compounds form?
The ions which involved in to create the crystalline ionic lattice, become ions.
Why is the melting point for ionic compounds higher then the melting point of molecular compounds?
Ionic bonds are stronger than covalent bonds and therefore require more energy to break.
What happens when two ionic compounds mix?
it forms a cloudy mixture called suspension

What compounds break up into ions in solution?
Ionic compounds are dissociated in water solution.
What happens when you cool an ionic compound?
Nothing, ionic compounds on cooling remain as they were.

Ionic bonds are stronger than covalent bonds and therefore require more energy to break.

Why are ionic compounds usually have high melting point while most simple covalent compounds have low melting point?
Ionic compounds are mad by ionic bonding The two parts of the compound ther for become one by means of moving electronioc and beoming stable there fore the bond and the compound is stronger that conalent compounds which just share the electrons needed for the two (or more ) elements to become a compound so they are weaker
What happens to Compounds formed by ionic bonds?
there is no anwer to this question, or there is too many answers!!
What happens to ionic compounds in the human body?
They are dissociated in the water from the organism, forming ions.
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.
Why ionic compounds are not used to make perfumes?
Ionic compounds have very strong forces holding them together, so the molecules wouldn't easily "break off" and float in the air, which is what you're smelling when you smell perfume.
Do ionic compounds shatter?
yes ionic compounds will shatter they are very brittle because when they form a crystal lattice each individual formula unit is not attracted to each other so they will break apart easily
