Why elctrovalent compound does not show the isomerism while covalent compound show isomerism?
Nt sure I agree with the question. Consider the octahedral polyatomic ion Co(NH3)4Cl2+ this has trans and cis isomers (chlorines opposite each other at 180 0 or next to each other at 90 0). Generelly isomerism is rare in electrovalent compounds. One interesting example is the optical isomerism of ammonium sodium tartrate discovered by Pasteur.
Why does a tetrahedral complex of the type MA2B2 not show geometrical isomerism?
For Geometrical isomerism the free rotation about the bonds should be restricted so a double bonded or cyclic compound may show the geometrical isomerism.
Why does covalent compound exhibit stereoisomerism?
Because covalent bond is rigid and occurs in any direction.Because of its ability to orient in any spatial arrangement in space it exhibits stereo-isomerism which is also the property of stereo-isomerism.
Why is covalent bond stronger than electrovalent bond?
I want all of u to visualize the experiment i did.I took 2 glasses of water.In glass1 i put a teaspoon of salt(NaCl being electrovalent) and in glass2,i put a teaspoon of glucose(covalent compound).Now it is scientifically proven that salt readily forms ions(Na+ and Cl-) than glucose which takes a long time.This proves the fact that electrovalent(ionic) bonds are weaker than electrovalent. People have a myth that because covalent bonds melt faster,they are weak compared to electrovalent.This is absolutely wrong.Melting is just change in process of a compound not involving breaking of bonds at all. Hence it is clear that Covalent bonds are stronger than Electrovalent bonds. :)
Why do alkenes show cis-trans isomerism?
Restricted rotation of the carbon-carbon double bond.

What are the isomers of 1-chloro-1-fluorocyclopropane?
This is only one compound and does not show isomerism.
Which is the strongest electrovalent compound?
caesium fluoride
What is the 4 properties of electrovalent compound?
They have high melting point
When atoms share electrons they are forming an?
Electrovalent compound newtest3
How do alkenes show geometric isomerism?
all the non terminal straight chain alkenes show the geometrical isomerism..
Why 2-butene show geometric isomerism while 1-butene does not?
2-butene show geomatric isomerism because each double bond carbon atom has two different group
Why do electrovalent compounds have high melting and boiling points?
Electrovalent compounds have high melting and boiling points as they are held by very strong electrostatic force of attraction making the compound stable and therefore they require a lot of energy to break.
Why does covalent compound exhibit stereoisomerism?
Because covalent bond is rigid and occurs in any direction.Because of its ability to orient in any spatial arrangement in space it exhibits stereo-isomerism which is also the property of stereo-isomerism.
