Why does common table salt NaCl have a high melting point?

Sodium chloride has a very strong ionic bond between sodium and chlorine. This bond is hard to break apart and force a state change, so it takes a lot of heat to bring it about. This means that the boiling point at which salt becomes a gas is very high.
